Mostly for landed house such as users who are living in terrace houses already get their turbo speed unless that you are living in condominium. High rise condo cannot get turbo speed beyond 100mbps.

unless that high rise condo is full fiber to every floor, i saw one condo is like that in sabah KK lol

ikr... less demand, they install.. not the standard 8 ports, it's 16 ports..and i saw it myself only 1 out of 16 been used for whole year laugh.gif ...high demand area they gave excuses
pic as included, on low demand area, but covered all with unifi.. only 1 port been used for whole year.. houses in the area can count with fingers.

Maybe that area live full of that kind ppl who...

Prefer slower internet not willing to spend more

Meanwhile ppl who wanted fast internet like unifi so bad suffer

No tm agent or tm people can help push for coverage? Kuching/Samarahan area... The nearest place got unifi just across road which is totally so close.

still better than my sis house, neighbours behind her house 10m away has unifi and she doesnt even have telephone pole, cant even apply normal phone line

It depends on the technology.

In Europe they use the 3/1Gbps Technology but they sell to people the packages synchronous only.

Meaning 1/1Gbps is the max.  Or 1000/1000Mbps.

They basically sell
100/100Mbps
200/200Mbps
500/500Mbps
1000/1000Mbps
packages in Europe.

But that's not a real story.. because the Max is 3000/1000Mbps with current deployed technology meaning
if on a specific node you have 16 users at the same time uploading, you only get 1000/16 ~ 60Mbps net

They just figure most of the time people won't upload so you don't really notice it so all 16 people can book the 1000/1000Mbps

In Malaysia the companies seem to be a bit more realistic and understand people actually do download and upload at the same time
so they "limit" each connection to balance the load a bit more...

And thus synchronous isn't sold in Malaysia because that's not realistic to the current level of technology being deployed in Malaysia
or even in EU or US for that matter. Most synchronous sold in EU is marketing only, not realistic.

Also Malaysia is less dense populated meaning the infrastructure is more expensive... so you gotta limit a bit more to artificially create
higher prices with more limitations. At least for the first years to earn back your investments..

The pricing and limitations in Malaysia do make more sense than the European pricing model.

Also, 99% of the people in Europe don't book the 1000/1000 package anyway because, as stated previously, you only get that in your local network.

Going to a webhost, foreign country, you can forget getting 1000/1000 it's not realistic.

They sell it in Europe, but not realistic.

Generally you have faster connections in Europe because a lot of servers and clouds are MIRRORED in Europe..
So even if you visit New York Times from within Europe, you are actually opening a US server but it's MIRRORED on
a cloud solution in Europe. Amazon, Google, whatever..

So you are calling for a US server but your connection never goes to the US, it never goes through the sea cable, it goes
to a server farm somewhere in Europe where the mirror is put.

Because of this, there's also a slight delay in news reports when you watch it from EU IP address or American IP Address.
And the Ads are also different because of this.

But I think in Malaysia there aren't so many large server farms.. so for Malaysians the international connections OUT OF MALAYSIA are much more important
than for users in EU, Japan, USA.

And thus they have to limit connection speeds in Malaysia.. that all makes sense.

I just wish someone from Maxis, Unify, TM would come online and explain it so we USERS can actually figure out the best plan for our needs.

my unifi installed 30may2019 100mbps rm129 previous was using streamyx 4mbps my home running 2X Streamyx 4MBPX = RM148X2 =RM296 look near RM300

because 10 year using streamyx my house was 1x streamyx 4mbps then my bro almost use internet heavy some my sister etc my bro always backup icloud iphone i also getting very slow then i am tension hard use and now days a lot GB download to much long hard use
then i sign up add streamyx 4mb rm149 that crazy rm300 over they told me my house not support 8mbps due distance dslam over 1.5km

hard to wait till unifi my area already project complete 2019

but why i need USA Los Angeles because need stream with VPN need speed more

i waiting 800mbps let to see price

yah i know old rate was over RM249 that i am fine
*
Even u sign up 8mbps

U still get extremely lag becoz ur brother uploading

8mbps upload only 0.5Mbps and fully used upload speed will stop u from downloading, thats cons of ADSL

Download speed will not move when upload speed 100% is being used

Ok. Thanks for all the advice given by you guys.
I think i Will go for mesh solution.
*
In ur case, mesh is the best option
Just saying that connecting them wirelessly

You will still end up maybe 20-50mbps on 3rd floor but at least you get the strong wifi signal, just the speed wont be maximum

To achieve maximum speed, pull ethernet cable from ground floor ,connect from router to first unit of the mesh unit, then connect another ethernet cable from 1st mesh unit to 2nd mesh unit,
Use ethernet cable to connect them for ethernet backhaul will allow u get maximum speed anywhere in ur 3 storey house as long u got strongsignal

If pulling ethernet cable is not an option, you can connect them wirelessly, signal coverage is still same but speedwill drop significantly.
