massive saving on maxis 10Mbps never give you internet stability at price of rm138 per mth. their thompson router sucks bad time. what more your phone connects to that freaking router. why? unstable wifi, hanging, overheating, public wifi. some users log in without you knowing which u had no control. because u agree to maxis terms. temporary workaround disable thomspson wifi. connect AP to that device.

a real frustrating experience honestly. you can change router but lose your voip & phone. for this you can get your facts from maxsi ftth thread. not even asus has certified router yet that can work with maxis.

the default dir-615 just better than their thompson. if u want quality ones can opt tplink, asus or etc which certified working for unifi. just change it your prob solved.

what i see maxis fiber has the potiential. if only certified maxis fiber replacment router with voip are available. then everyone will of course terminate their unifi vip for rm500 & jump bandwagon. at moment is not possible.

Hi, why do you say that you are glad about sticking with Unifi and not maxis? Seems like massive savings for the maxis one although I'm not sure if when promo ends, whether current subscribers have to pay full price?

I myself thinking of switching over since it's cheaper and faster than my Unifi 5mbps.

Hope you can enlighten me on the potential pitfalls of subscribing to maxis

Otherwise, my Unifi 5 is working like a charm at the moment. Only problem is I occasionally need to reset my router otherwise some new devices can't connect to it. I wonder why

I would be happy if TM allow VIP users to add fixed public IP to their account with some additional fee. Maybe additional rm100 per month?

No idea why but recently my modem seems to be buggy. Sometimes I can't even access the modem page, it just times out.

And from like last week, wireless connection to both my brother and my phone seems to be getting crappy. Randomly we get disconnected even though I am just like 1 meter away from it. Was wondering how good is the tplink modem something 841. Is it a big improvement over the tm dlink one?

Thanks for the heads up. I knew it was too good to be true...

So you mean there's no way to secure your maxis router at home? Anyone can join your network?

of cause if maxis were give u good routers. it's impossible for them charge u rm138 per mth. too good to be true anyhow.

securing your router is not issue. no one can join your network, but ppl who subscribe to maxis public wifi. THEY CAN JOIN. because the router was design in a way maxis can do their thingy there.  there is a security hole where the router manufacturer does customized for maxis biz interest.

Guys, wanna ask something. How many vlan id is the default TM DIR-615 shud have? I mean, on WAN setting,  I only know there shud be 2 Vlan Tag which is vlan500 and vlan600 rite? My dir-615 router ahve another 2 vlan which is Vlan209 and Vlan700.What is that for? Shud i erased it? Thks in advance

Sounds bad.

I'm sure ppl who sign up for maxis fibre won't know abt this

What's the problem since it's fine to allocate separate bandwidth for different services on fibre?

If they can separate 8mbps for IPTV outside your Unifi internet use meaning they do not share the same VLAN pipe, Maxis can also separate their public hotspot bandwidth from yuor internet use by allocating maybe say another 4mbps outside your subscribed speed?

That means you get separate bandwidth for:

Internet - 10mbps
Public Hotspot - 2-4mbps
IPTV - 10mbps

The total only occupy 24mbps on each user side.

securing your router is not issue. no one can join your network, but ppl who subscribe to maxis public wifi. THEY CAN JOIN. because the router was design in a way maxis can do their thingy there.  there is a security hole where the router manufacturer does customized for maxis biz interest.
