Given a choice between Celcom or Digi fibre, which one will you choose? I may choose 100Mbps and the price difference between these two providers is minimal or should I opt for Celcom 300Mbps? I'm just using it alone. laugh.gif I just need a stable temporary connection for few months (up to one year probably) until TIME officially enters my condo which they told me they require some time. I understand either Celcom or Digi will only have one time RM 500 early termination fees, so I will choose either one.

Similar with my situation last time.. I did approach Digi first because of their 500Mbps nicely price. Celcom that time only have 30 and 100Mbps.

Since my case a bit complicated, Digi not really entertain me. Only Celcom patient enough to help me with TM birocracy. Thats why i choose Celcom.

Good to hear that. I will decide which one to get but seems like Celcom may have better connectivity to overseas server. A lot of my devices require to be connected to China, I guess Celcom may be a better choice?

For your guide,

Celcom fiber ping latency to china.

Maxis fiber ping latency to china.

the only benefit using Celcom is connection to China mobile are very good becos they have direct peering and the rest are up and down due using different routing via NTT transit.

Thanks for sharing this, it is helpful. Looks like most probably I will go for Celcom unless Digi gives me a huge discount as I'm currently their customer.

Can I use my own router with Celcom Fibre? I’m sure the installer won’t help to install with my router right away and I can only change to mine after he leaves?

yes... easy to change.. tried with my old Tenda, working fine.. now waiting for AX73 to arrive.. need that to use USB port for shared drive..

Can I use UniFi profile for Celcom? I know some routers already pre-installed with UniFi profile/settings, so just a click will do.
