After all these problems with Maxis router and gaming problem etc. I think I wanna go with Unifi instead. However I already have a scheduled installation date with them on October 3 which is next week. Is it possible if I call them and cancel the package now? it’s not too late and I can still cancel, right?

yup! 3 days before

new 10mbps user reporting in.
just installed yesterday. 1 maxis guy and 4 tm installer came.
speed test quite satisfying. ping 10ms, download 13mbps upload 12mbps.
Btw, maxis gave me a thompson tg 799n router.
i've noticed there's a dect button and light on that router. is it possible to connect my phone directly to the router instead of plugging it in? thanks.

woooo! nice 799n
you are the first to report in with the model.
but it is still thomson.

if it performs well, let everone know.
those using 784 can request change router.
just put in microwave, on for 10 secs will do the trick, lol

if u prepare to suffer 1week without internet,
do it 1second x 10times and in between 1second interval

I would do it on the day before the appointment to change the router.
like that only one day no internet.

offtopic.
does your p1 1-2 days renew ip bothers you in any way?

i didnt keep track...
just came back from holiday, will try to monitor

update, not sure back on track or not but can surf with multiple PCs at the moment

connection is damn slow tonight, restarted 3 times + cursing 10 times.

I'm having problem with my router lately. Whenever I open my utorrent, the router will hang. The only way to solve the problem is for me to reset the router. It only happens since 2 weeks ago. Previously works all fine with utorrent. Very dissapointed with the service. Yesterday i call the service desk, it took me 20 minutes. Earlier I call again and it took me 39 minutes!!! Still there are unable to solve my problem and asking me to change the channel from 8 - 11. Sigh...

A bit regret to go with Maxis rather than Unifi.

So far so good. No disconnecting etc etc. and the wifi signal is quite strong.

Picture of the tg799n


Ps. Sorry for the blurry pics. Taken with my iPad.

i noticed a usb fan behind

Yeah. It heats up very badly if I don't use a fan.
