Talk anytime anywhere in the world with free minutes

just sharing here. I was setting sipdroid successfully and it worked. thanks to viknela for valued infomation
now my setup is Alcatel Lucent modem + tl wr1043nd with openwrt + smart phone with voip/sip app installed

for those interested u can download from market search for sipdroid or other voip/sip app.

here is the setting for sipdroid,

authorization username: 03xxxxxxxx
password: 03xxxxxxx1 or phonebill account number+ phone number last 4 digits
server or proxy: bvgw01.maxis.com.my
domain: homesip.maxis.com.my
you can tick any network you like wifi,3g and edge

updated: not all working in unifi network and talktime limit to 10minutes per call maybe this is maxis limitation for non standard voip setting

Wow, works on my Nexus 4!

Any idea how to setup and what app to use for iphone?

Some review about Maxis FTTH :
Speed quite okay, not much different compared to UniFi, but the Thomson router is lousy!


P/S : I am not a network expert, just for sharing purpose, if i am wrong please correct me.

Difference between UniFi and Maxis VDSL connection :
UniFi VoIP is directly connected to TM's Huawei VDSL Modem, while Maxis VoIP is connected to Maxis Thomson Router.
Different VLAN Tagging,
Maxis : VLAN 621, VLAN821, VLAN822

NOTE : This guide only applies to high rise installation using VDSL (TM Huawei HG665a VDSL MODEM).

*If you intend to do this for ZTE VDSL modem, please follow a similar guide here : http://www.azim.my/unifi/
*I have not tested this on ZTE VDSL, but i think it shouldn't be a problem for it to work.

Equipment Involved : TM Huawei Echolife HG655a VDSL Modem, Maxis Thomson TG784n Router, TP-Link WR842ND Router (CUSTOM, can be any brand or model, but NOT ADSL MODEM ROUTER).
Default Maxis Installation :
NOTE : Maxis Thomson router is connected to LAN2 of Huawei HG655a VDSL Modem.

After Modification :
NOTE : Maxis Thomson router is connected to LAN2 (For VoIP Purpose only), Your CUSTOM Router is connected to LAN3.

STEP 1 : Take a LAN cable and connect to Port 1 of TM Huawei Hg655a VDSL Modem, make sure you set your PC's Local Area Connection IP to fixed as indicated by below Pic.


STEP 2 : Type 192.168.1.1 in your Chrome/Firefox browser,
Username : admin
Password : hs5711Bbvl


STEP 3 : Backup your Huawei configuration file first so that you can easily restore back if anything happens.



STEP 4 : Navigate to Basic -> WAN.
Click on ptm1.621
UNTICK LAN2 on both Port Binding and VLAN Tagging.
TICK LAN3 on Port Binding ONLY!
Click on Submit button!



STEP 5 : Connect your CUSTOM Router to PORT 3 of Huawei HG655a VDSL Modem!

STEP 6 (Optional) : Connect to your WEB GUI of your ROUTER, change the IP of your router to 192.168.1.254


STEP 7 : Configure the PPPoE dialler for your router.

NOTE :
Sample Maxis Username : 12345@home.maxis.com.my (Private IP)
Password : 123451 (Always + number 1 to the back of your username)



Maxis comes with Private IP in default, if you want to get Public IP, just give the customer service a call and tell them you want to host your CCTV/etc and request a Public IP from them, they will then activate it for you and will call you back a few more days to teach you how to configure. Basically just change the word HOME to PUBLIC. Username : 12345@PUBLIC.maxis.com.my (Public IP).


STEP 8 (Optional ) : Turn off Thomson Wireless Transmission.

Connect your PC to Thomson Router,
Type 192.168.1.254 into your browser,
Navigate to Home Network -> Interfaces
Click on WLAN: ThomsonXXXXX (XXXmbps).



Click Configure on top right corner.
UNTICK Interface Enabled.

FINAL LOOK :

DONE!
Maxis uses VLAN 621 for Internet, and VLAN 821 / 822 for VoIP (Either one and I think another one will be for future IPTV deployment, expert please help to figure out).

In this modification, Thomson router will be retained for sole VoIP purpose, however full migration of VoIP to Huawei VDSL modem is possible if we have the configuration details for Maxis VoIP. If anyone has it, please share! You may switch off your Thomson router if you don't intend to use the VoIP service.

Bro, If i dont want to use VOIP phone, can you just jump straight to Step 6 to configure the TP-link with stock firmware?
I tried to follow from Step 6 but the PPPoE doesnt get connected.

I plug my LAN cable to WAN port on my TPLink and LAN Port 2 on BTU (Alcatel Lucent). Am i right?

Or i must flash TPLink WR1043ND with OpenWRT or DD-WRT ?

thank you in advance!

TPLink with stock firmware doesn't have VLAN tagging. (621 for Maxis)
So, you need to flash TPLink 1043 into custom firmware to get VLAN tagging.
I am using OpenWRT now and it works.

Check your hardware revision of TPLink. (Refer to sticker on your box)
Read the table from below link carefully for correct firmware to download.

http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wr1043nd

If you are on revision V1.10, you can download the firmware from this link :

http://downloads.openwrt.org/attitude_adju...hfs-factory.bin

The rest just follow instruction from klseet

http://www.klseet.com/index.php/tl-wr1043nd-ver18

Step is the same, klseet is using unifi and we are using maxis with different vlan.

I just follow with the klseet post but the voip doesn't work. why?

You need to follow this for VOIP to work

but my btu is alcatel lucent not hg850a

Those who still using Thompson router but want to change the DNS, can backup a copy of the setting [user.ini] open with notepad and find


change to


save it and restore back to the router..
in this way the comp will auto get 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as DNS through DHCP..

Can yours guy recommend any brand wifi router (with strong signal and not any problem) can connect with Thomson .i don wanna use Thomson as wifi router.thanks

A very good day to all here...just wanna ask if anyone attempt to use custom router for maxis astro iptv. ...i managed to connect to maxis via vlan id 621....but wanna ask if anyonr knows vlan for the astro iptv.....

backup the config from thompson, open with notepad, under [ vlan_res.ini ] u should see a list of vlan id.
if not sure, copy the list under [ vlan_res.ini ] and paste it here..
