hi there, ive relocated from ipoh to lestari putra near equine park, seri kembangan since early april. applied for relocation, till now they are saying no port. full port and etc.

Went to Tm Point twice, they ask me to wait, but still no advice on whether i should upgrade to streamyx. I dunno what to do but wait n wait. Any idea on what is the next step ?

If you still want to use Unifi. Log a complaint to SKMM saying that Unifi is telling you the port is full. Normally they'll have to find a way to make it happen.

Sad because I installed Unifi less than a month ago.
So happy with it. Can do my work smoothly as I use the internet a lot to upload photos and videos and watch YouTube and sometimes download movies.
When downloading movies, I can easily get 1mb. Sometimes up to 1.2mb.

Suddenly Astro offered me RM148 for 10mbps Maxis + a reduction for my Astro bill.

I am currently paying RM395/month;
RM200 for 10mbps Unifi and
RM195 for Astro.

The sales person said I will only pay RM150 for Astro and RM150 for Internet.
So that's RM95 savings for me for the exact same speed.
And he said the Astro will be on Fiber as well so I won't have any problems when it rains.

Haih. I don't know whether I should jump to Astro/Maxis and pay the RM500 penalty to TM.

It will be worth it after 5 months when I recoup my losses but I am not sure if Maxis internet is reliable.
Previously I cancelled the RM118/month Maxis deal at the last minute before installation because of many horror stories here in LYN.

My neighbor opposite my house is using Maxis too and they never had any problems for the past 2-3 years.
Not even once they had to call the CS.
Father works from home using internet all the time and son is a gamer. Always in the house.

if you are not a gamer, Maxis would be fine. my family is using maxis, and i am using unifi. the cost saving would be great. it is just that the router is bad. and for IPTV users, you cant change to a different router as it won't work. YouTube streams can be choppy at times, but generally, maxis has been okay la for me.

it is all about cost and trade offs really. that extra savings can be put into retirement fund.

Hello

im unifi user since 2011. and recently i discover problem

- recently when i turn on all unifi equiptment, no network connection on my pc (direct cable) and tab/smattphone (wifi). but stb (hypptv) working fine. need to turn off all equiptment, wait a minute then turn on back. And netwok ok. sometimes i do it 2 3 times

- im lol summoner and every night i play. but recently it keep disconnected from g.a.r.e.n.a server swometimes it hang, make me terminate the application. i go surf on its forum to look for any solution. and i discover that there are connection between g.a.r.e.n.a server and unifi user. but someone posted there says after replacing unifi routet with tplink, problem solved

After review it many times, i suspect the router might have problem, the dir615. no wonder unifi user dont like it. so i plan to change

I have visit klseet website to get some info to replace this filthy dir615. Quite a lot of selection to make. but why all must upgrade to custom unifi firmware AFTER buy it? is there any router that i buy it, plug it then enjoy it? im not techy guy to go flash router memory by myself and load the latest firmware. i dun want to take risk on it

btw, my usage on unifi just moderate. daytime i worked, so all equiptment off. After work at home, turn it on to watch hypptv n internet n of course lol. before go bed, turn off all. only weekend i turn on whole day. And hypptv n rm5 pice-of-metal antenna is my only tv source to watck on my big fat 29inch crt tv. I dun have astro

so, back to question. any router that can replace dir615? my budget below rm200 and the type that i dun need to flash to custom firmware. i prefer plug n play

thanks

I have great experience with ASUS N12 D1. This is a very affordable router, just select TM Unifi profile during setup, and follow the guide.

ASUS N14UHP has better range, but if dir 615 range was good enough, Asus N12 D1 is slightly better than that. So it is an adequate replacement.

What about TIME? Is their service good?

TIME has their own fibre and network. If your location is covered, then why not. You can save a lot if are an Astro subscriber as well. Astro IPTV + Time fibre connection is cheaper than subscribing those two services separately.

You can check the TIME thread.
