Everyone talking about bad ping but I didn't notice it? Or my expectation too low?
Those with bad ping can give me an address for me to tracert/ping? So that we can compare and see
Doing ping test to webserver (singtel.com) and webmailserver (imail.starhub.com) will not do any good to Maxis FTTH customer. I'm advising we do it against a normal user from Singaporean IP address. In my test below I do it to 27.54.32.17 which is my brother PC located in Singapore. Normally I play online game together with him either using Maxis FTTH or TM UniFi. Below is his IP whois info for reference:
His dynamic IP block start from 27.54.32.1 and ending at 27.54.39.254
Below is the ping test, on the left is Maxis FTTH vs TM UniFi on the right.
We can see average reply for Maxis FTTH is more than double of TM UniFi
Below is trace route test, on the left is Maxis FTTH vs TM UniFi on the right.
Maxis FTTH is need 20 hop to reach while TM UniFi only need 12

I am suspecting maxis is using my ftth as a hotspot. This happened only one week ago.
When I use my laptop with inSSIDer program to check, besides my wifiname, there is another one labeled as "maxis" with the same info, but with Open Security. If I turned off my wifi, the "maxis" will be gone as well.
If I use my ipad, this "maxis" will be shown as well.
When I check my thomson router setting, under Home Network -> Interfaces, asides from the normal LocalNetwork and VoIP, there are "dummy" and "Hotspot" label shown.
Is it something wrong with my wireless setting? How can I correct this?
Or is my FTTH is being use a hotspot by maxis?
If it's being use as a hotspot, is this legal?
Any of you guy is having the same issue?
You may get rid from maxis hotspot by reconfigure your Thomson RG. Jot down your High Speed Internet credential, VoIP credential and any custom port forwarding you have done and do the factory reset on that RG by pressing the reset factory button for a few seconds. Do Setup Wizard and don't enable the hotspot this time.

Just got mine installed last Thursday. Tested torrent download yesterday at 9pm, I still can get 500kbps total download speed for 2 torrents and client that I am using is XunLei (Thunder) So not so sure the speed throttled is based on client or not.
Also with maxis, I still can watch PPStream which Unified already blocked.
XunLei no affected by this P2P throttle because of they are using another protocol beside those standard bittorrent protocol.
I don't think UniFi is blocking PPStream because there still got people asking how to block PPStream using TM UniFi like
here. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
