nothing to be sad of to ditch ur overpriced streamyx.

haha... coz my streamyx has been good, fast and trouble-free lately

previously when 1st started, many problems, take years to solve the issue

so i got a phobia that maxis ftth may cause me unnecessary trouble once again!

Anyone here using wireless adapter....what speed did u get?
For my i using TP-Link wn-821n only get 54Mbps....got anyway i can get better speed for it....
Thank You

Maxis installation completed today

appointment 9:30am
- not on time, so was calling 1800 to ask at 10am
- while waiting for someone to answer from the customer service, they called me instead and tell me sorry for the delay, their engineer on the way up to my condo
- ask him about TM engineers, maxis engineer say they are already here at the communication room doing the necessary
- 10:30am TM engineer came up
- Both party does their settings
- 11am officially connected to Maxis Fiber
- Maxis did some speedtest for record and reporting purpose (via LAN), i saw the speed was fine, hovering 9-10Mbps for both upload and download
- ping was about 35ms, didn't know which server he chose though
- i did some speedtest using my phone over wifi, got roughly the same upload and download and ping was around 24-29ms

haven't got time to really test the stability out. Hopefully everything is ok.

ok many stuff to write , so far so good .
report will be done later when i m back.

I'm using those wifiSky or GSky USB wifi(g) adapters with 7" high gain antenna to overcome the problem of the weak Thomson's wifi signals. The wifi signal for the ground floor PC (same floor with Thomson router) was full bar with excellent signal and the speed is at the max 54.0Mps.
Whereas the second PC located upstairs was also showing 90% signal strength but the speed keep fluctuate from 1Mps, 11Mps, 38Mps.

My media player was connected to Thomson router via LAN cable and streaming the 1080p HD video over the internet from the built-in Youtube app and PPS app on the HD TV was smooth and clear.
Will probably ditch Astro soon..

Care to share the brand/model of the Media Player ?

Can your phone/tablet detect adequate Wifi signal from the furthest point away from Thomson router in your house ?

Observe this issue:
When few wifi devices connected to the network, it takes 5 to 10 seconds in white blank page to load up a web page link, sometimes immediate load up, sometimes waited till time out and page unavailable.

Its called vdsl 2 condo wiring, most condo built after yeR 2005 comes either vdsl or vdsl2 standard coper wiring connecting to the standard copper or fiber to copper board in building mdf room.

Standard vdsl2 wiring in most condo can support up to 50mbps on single pair wiring.

But all new condos yeR 2010 and above mostly use the higher throughput vdsl2 The 17a profile which can go up to 100 mbps

nervous as hell, not sure why... 30 more minutes before they come!
