It happened 1 hour after I slept around 2am, during that time I think my network also don't have much remote activities.

Mine is P1 ForBiz package, eventhough it's dynamic IP, it's very strange why P1 want to renew it that frequent.

I'm still monitoring, may test running some remote network activities persistentl to see whether it will force renew.

If really P1 force to renew the IP even I have business transaction with remote, I'll be a angry man, yet again !

FYI,
Maxis FTTH renews their dynamic ip every 48 hours.
P1 FiberBiz every 1-2 days

Reasons I can think of,
1) ip pool is small, need to free up unused ips
(not a valid reason, oversell results in connection problems during peak hours)

2) default server dhcp settings
(some default 24 hours, some 7 days, some forever lease depending on brand)

a simple tweak to their server dhcp lease time will fix it.
nobody complain, so nothing done.

what "IDEAL" lease duration should be,
it depends on how the short disconnections are going to affect usage.
Maybe 3/7/14/30/forever days??....(I oso dunno)

I would appreciate if you could lodge a complain to fix this if necessary.
You have the experience dealing with them thru proper channel.

Thanks.


sidenote: depending on usage:
some users actually prefer the daily renew of ips.
some streamyx/unifi users will actually manually reset their routers to get fresh ips.

PRO
some believe certain ip are faster than the others.
more difficult to track your ip for 114a and prawn downloaders.
can register new account if banned in LYN by simply clearing cookies
etc

CON
renewing ips are actually short disconnections.
short disconnections is a problem when situations does not favour them eg cctv, direct downloads, banking etc
etc

Happened again last night ...




Seem like daily event, same time around 3:15am, force renew!

Does any P1 ForBiz users encounter the same?

you all still believe in SCAM company like P1 after somany people compalin about them.

why not? This is fibre, not the unreliable wireless "4g".

how much is it for the installation + charges ya?

The problem with P1 is the slow response from them, already forth day and i hv yet to rcv any call from their installation team after i submit my registration form to them last tue. Message them on their FB they said will forward to respective dept...

I checked and confirmed.
It is a 24hours lease.

If yours is at 3.15am, it will renew at the same time everyday.
If you manual reset at 5pm, then it will be 5pm everyday
etc etc

most of the delay is waiting for appointment date from TM's technician.

so far I am satisfied with their response time.

Decision decision..my unifi installation is 2moro and i yet to rcv P1 call (submitted my form last tue). P1 ForBiz 20MB is really good price for me...

btw, am using wireless IP security cam, hopefully the P1 frequent ip renew thing wouldnt disrupt my cctv recording...few min is fine..

Oh... now i get it. Thanks for the info.

it will be too late to cancel your unifi installation tomorrow.

P1 and Maxis has to wait for TM technician to go together for installation.
It may be longer than usual.

renewing of ips take seconds rather than minutes.

is the RT-N16 can be use in P1 fiber ?

P1 needs to get their international capacity increase to accommodate their new fibre subscribers. Though they got their CPE and strong marketing right this time, they're lacking in their gateway capacity. I mean very lacking until WIMAX customers are often complaining of extreme slowdowns during peak hours.

just to lets u guys know, P1 did refresh the IP
the expiry time is around 1day+ .... not even 2days
my expiry time around 4:30pm... not night time

Update:
Set the 24hours renewal ip to the time you desired.
At the time you want, do a hard reset,
soft reset connect/disconnect via dlink interface doesn't work so far.

How I found out? Coincidently,
Electricity outage at 10pm one night and the ip is renewed 10pm every night ever since.

Off both dlink and tm modem.
On tm modem
On dlink.
Done.

Note:
Still monitoring the time and duration of the exact time ip is renewed.
Please let everybody know if this P1 24 hours lease poses any problem to everyday task.

is this promotion still on?

wow thats really cheap for 5mbps speed, i just got my VIP 5 last week..

I'm done with P1 Fiber and I'm terminating it:
http://klseet.com/index.php/p1-fiber-problems-a-issues

After using it for 1 week and also complaining/yelling/screaming for 1 week, P1 simply never bother to response....

In summary, I cannot stand with the daily force IP renewal nuisance
P1 did not inform me on such annoying daily interruption when I sign-up P1 Fiber ForBiz

The other key reason is that P1 refused to provide my SIP account detail, I can't configure on my own VoIP phone

Guess I'll have to look for other alternatives .....
