Hi all, the Maxis CS called yesterday to confirm the installation date which on this coming Saturday. Same case as above, they said they will come to install first without Modem..... the modem will provide to me only at the end of the month.... Can i know if i prefer using my own modem(With Wi Fi), which brand and model is compatible with Maxis Home Fiber??? Thanks.......

Thanks for the advices.... So, we can't get the modem from outside shop?? Only available from Maxis?? Then how ah..??

Hi, actually Maxis is no stock for Modem or router ..??? As my wife said the CS mentioned was modem... but some users here said was Thomson router...?? Thanks.....

Hi All;
Today the maxis and the TM installer came to my house at 2pm (They actually promised come at 12pm). The maxis/unifi fiber point just in front of my house,not more than 15m (Landed).

When they just started try to pull the cable from outside to my house, one of the guys told me that the under ground hole was "Sumbat"...!! They need to hack and get the cable from outside... so this is call non standard installation. The EXTRA Charge is RM800++ !!! What the Fxxk!! I'm not agreed on that crazy charges!!

Later, the other guy said this is just the list price, and can negotiate .... I said this is over charge...even they give me 50% discount also RM400++.... So, i said i want cancel the installation!!

After that, the maxis guy said how much i can offer... i said maximum RM100. He went out side and discussed with the other 3 guys, then he came in and said others not agreed but for him he is ok to accept RM100. So, they go back........

The point here is the underground really SUMBAT?? I don't know..!! Or they just want potong my head for their extra RAYA income...??? For those before the installation, please beware of this trick.....!!

Please refer the photos... the open gate is my house. They opened the concrete and tried to push the cable from there into my house near my door entrance.
