No monthly fee. Just buy the player and that is it.

that media player, support using what chipset? realteck or sigma? can play full hd file and rmvb files without trouble?
*
The chipset is undisclosed by the service provider. I can play most file types including 1080p MKV, and rmvb. It is just like any other media player but with the additional feature such as proprietary UI and apps, shortcuts and the best being the service provider search for the free and popular contents in the internet then organised, catogerised and update nicely for the users periodically. Also, it comes with 1800 toll-free customer support.

Worked with Maxis Home Fiber flawlessly for online contents using LAN. Can also use Aztech USB wifi dongle if LAN is not an option.

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.

since my place is a condo, so not much problem with coverage, but i did test with wifi analyzer and the signal seems normal for now.

Hi all,

I want to share my experience with the FTTH installation last Sat 7th July 2012. The TM contractors arrived early (2pm instead of appointment time of 2.30pm) to my surprise!, and the Maxis guy arrived on time. It took them 2 hours for installation but they couldn't get a good signal at the router end (it was close to 38dB) although the reading at the pole was 18dB.

One of the contractor from TM wanted to go ahead and finish up the installation with this, but another did not and wanted to find out the root cause of the high signal loss so it took them another hour to find out that the connector was problematic and they went and bought a new one from a nearby shop. The reading at my end was then around 19dB. So make sure you find this out from the contractors and ask them to show the meter readings to you - as some of them would take a shortcut and proceed anyway!

The Maxis technician was a newbie, basically fumbled though the entire router configuration - he did not even know my account number and told me not to touch the router settings, including the default wireless passwords as he did not know anything - all the initial config. was set by TM contractors and they left after rebooting the router and they did not want to wait for it to start (and i let them leave thinking that this Maxis guy would know but i was gravely mistaken)

Couldn't get my VOIP phone to work as well and after a few reboots it was working. So the entire installation took like 3-4 hours. Speedtest is good for local servers, around 9.5MB for both download and upload and ping <50ms

Alright heres the report .

Installation scheduled at 9.30 a.m .
Maxis guy arrived at 9.20 a.m . So we surveyed the area and where to do the cables . TM ppl came at 10.15p.m .

Installations are done till around 11.45p.m. Then they called maxis coz we cant connect to the internet.
Waited till 12.45p.m , everything is up and running.

My first connection using wifi was at 5mbps , thought that the signal played a part in getting that speed . The wifi signal I am getting from 1st floor is only 2/6 bars.
But then when I restart the wifi , speedtest local server indicated 10mbps up/dl .Ping at 15ms.

I tried direct downloading at 1pm, speed fluctuates from 2xx kb/s to 1.2 MB/s.
Now downloading another file , speed constant ranging 1.1x to 1.3x MB/s

So everything so far so good. Havent try p2p yet .

Yup, non standard installation charge RM200. At first, I thought they try con me, but then after I verify with maxis and TM via phone. It's because my house unable to use the phone box at the wall outside(not sure what is it) to install the cable, I have to choose another option which is pull the cable directly from outside longkang to inside of my house. So much wiring work have to be done. rclxub.gif

I recall someone mentioned you can only do it like a day later. Remember to add 6 in front of your tel no.
