TS, please add this to the first page.

For everyone who is trying to change the DNS, please do not use IPV4 DNS anymore. Maxis Home Fibre has switched to IPV6 therefore using IPV4 won't work.

When going into Internel Protocol, choose the:

Internet Protocal Version 6 (TCP/IPv6)

Then key in a public IPv6 DNS for Preferred DNS and Alternate DNS. Example Google Ipv6 dns:

2001:4860:4860::8888
2001:4860:4860::8844

OpenDNS IPv6:

2620:0:ccc::2
2620:0:ccd::2

Hope this helps. I tried to change to 8.8.8.8 when I first got maxis home fibre but i couldnt access GutterUncensored (if you can visit this site means you are on an uncensored DNS, not Malaysia's heavily filtered DNS). Finally after trying unsuccessfully using many public DNS servers, I thought, what if Maxis has upgraded to IPv6? Straight away I key in google public DNS and voila! all the "censored" websites could be accessed openly and no more government filtering!

I still can access that "GutterUncensored" site using normal Google IPv4 DNS 8.8.8.8 on my PC. My Maxis Thomson router configuration still unchanged with stock setting (Maxis DNS). I'm on public IP by the way. tq

I'm not sure how it works because previously when I was on unifi, using IPV4 public DNS would be good enough to access any internet sites but since installing Maxis Home Fibre, only via using IPv6 public DNS I can access any website. This could be due to different time of installing maxis home fibre. e.g. moving forward any maxis home fibre will be on the IPv6 network. Earlier subscribers would still be on IPv4.

its a well known fact. maxis throttles torrents from 8pm - 3am. The rest of the time my torrents can hit 1.1MB/s. but during evening (peak hour), the torrent speed suddenly capped to 350kB/s. Don't believe try it yourself. make sure you got lots of fully seeded torrents so you can hit the max speed though.
