Hi, Maxis Home fibre newbie here. I just installed Maxis Fibre + Astro last week (no phone line). So far so good, wifi quite strong even at the farthest room.

Anyway, wanna ask,

1) to increase download speed from filehosting sites (netload, uploaded, ryushare), can i just change the dns or do i have to change to public ip as well?

2) received quotation from ADT (alarm system). To install the alarm, they need extra RM300 for connection to their centralized system because i'm using Maxis Fibre (if unifi, no extra $$), what gives?

Thanks guys.

oh, when i said no phone line, i meant i didn't take the Talk package (so no voice call). Just internet+IPTV. My house had no line before, so they pulled a fibre line into the house.

I took the maxis home fiber without VOIP. I think i mentioned to him it's maxis fibre, but i'll double check again.

I dunno why, that's what i'm asking.

The ADT system quote was about RM2k. Censors all around entry points including manholes at the ceiling. On top of that there's RM75 monthly fee for centralized monitoring system from their HQ.

Ahhh... so they cannot install it without a phone line la? I tot they can easily connect using internet.

Hi bro, so can u watch netflix now? Does it have anything to do with public vs private IP? or we just change the DNS?

OK. It will not affect the Astro IPTV right? Coz mine is Maxis Fiber + Astro IPTV.

LOL, still haven't got my first bill and i'm already trying to do all sorts of modifications.

thanks wiraone and aceedburn!

Bro, thanks for your help, successfully changed the DNS (to google DNS, unblock-us not yet).

Just wanna check, do you ever need to go back to unblock-us website to activate vpn every time maxis reboot the connection? I read in the forum maxis 'refresh' the internet connection every 48 hours.
