QUOTE(LordDenning @ May 22 2013, 04:56 AM) any disadvantage of fttb(fibre then copper) compared to ftth(fibre all the way to house) ? No difference.... copper can handle up to 100Mbps with Fibre handling much higher bandwidth |

QUOTE(rhoyo @ May 21 2013, 11:57 PM) the guy said . u need to unsubscribe unifi later we can make fibre into my house . btw im living tingkat 9 flat . dunno if maxis salesperson lazy or else I think it's better you refer to the front page for high rise installation. Usually they use VDSL wall socket for high rise installation unless you can have more than one socket (not sure about this, using mine in terrace house) So can't use more than one due to that limitation, so can only use one service at a time. |

QUOTE(rhoyo @ May 21 2013, 10:13 PM) today i ask maxis . about if have unifi already . then they say cannot pasang cause ada unifi . can anybody please tell me is this true ? That is unfortunately their policy. Actually it would depend on your line quality your subscribed speed etc.Also Maxis can easily be configured on to a different port (eg: port 2) of your VDSL router. VDSL can typically get 40-50Mbps speeds so if say you subscribe Unifi 10Mbps & Maxis 10Mbps it shouldnt be an issue. But stupid maxis dont want to do that. I have both unifi and maxis (Astro IPTV) at the same time in my condo. The way I did this was to apply direct to them without telling them I had unifi. Then when they came actually they cut my unifi. Then I complain to the installer there and then "how dare you simply cut my unifi without my permission" Then they patch it back. In the MDF room they configured both maxis, Astro & Unifi VLANs on to the same physical cable (not ideal - if you can drag new line from your MDF room to your unit that is better). Now i have a setup like this VDSL LAN 1 -> Linksys Router (for Unifi) VDSL LAN 2 -> Maxis Technicolour Router (for Maxis & Astro IPTV) VDSL LAN 4 -> Hypp TV  Of course since Unifi & Maxis are sharing the same copper line I tried testing simultaneous 2 Astro HD channel + Hypp TV HD channel, then my broadband speed suffers... |

Actually you can use any phone connect to it, it just work the same. Advantage of dect phone is can see the incoming number and save contact list. |

QUOTE(majorarmstrong @ May 22 2013, 08:10 PM) btw the 10 secs delay is cause by Maxis line or cause by the phone? I think is caused by both VOIP service and the dect phone.After I changed to another phone, the delay reduced to 5s now. |

But hardly noticeable coz terminated in malaysia server. What's is ur ping? Maybe ur line only.After I changed to another phone, the delay reduced to 5s now. |

Both maxis and unifi got download cap but is NOT implemented yet.. If one of the telco implement it, im pretty sure the other will follow soon.. If you talking about p2p/torrent cap. Then yes, maxis cap your speeds from 8pm-2am daily to around 0.5mbps ~ 1mbps... Unifi doesn't... |

Yup, maxis is so marvelous that I justbought 2 semi-d, 1 bangalow to fix this maxis fibre.  ok, jokes aside. cap can mean a lot of things. if you mean quota, no, maxis has not quota. now go and find a new house, quick!  |
