QUOTE(CAC@MBO @ Nov 1 2014, 09:31 PM) Hi, would like to know when Chai Leng Park, 13700 Prai, Penang will have time fibre internet? I check seberang jaya had it already. Hope it expand fast, been waiting since few years ago.  Hi Bro, Thanks for your interest in Time Fibre. I'm sorry as Chai Leng Park area is not yet ready for service. Fyi, at this moment only multi dwellings unit such as high rise apt, condos are covered, landed property not covered. Thanks.

QUOTE(rip_code @ Nov 3 2014, 03:51 PM) Hi. I noticed that TIME's IP range is now at 149.129.*.* ... any improvement? Hi Bro, Not much difference in terms of performance... this 149.129.*.* range is belongs to Time dotNet while the usual 210.19.*.* TT dotcom...both also under Time dotcom Berhad.... Thanks.

QUOTE(ivanleow @ Nov 4 2014, 10:42 PM) Hi TIME , May i ask , is there any plan to cover TIME to Sungai dua , BW ? Was finding a broadband to cover on my stay over there soon. Maybe middle of 2015. Hi Ivan Bro, Sorry only multi dwelling units such as such as Flats, Apt & Condo are covered at this moment. Fyi, landed properties are not covered at this moment. Currently GPON (FTTx) service only covers Penang Island. Feel free to drop me your contact details, I'll keep you posted once it's expanded to your area. Thanks.

QUOTE(LeoLilieno @ Nov 5 2014, 10:28 AM) I somehow feel that TIME Fibre is getting slower by day... I am on a 10mb plan with Astro and when I do speedtest, Ping is 35ms, DL is 2.35mb while UL is 5mb. Bear in mind that this is when I boost it to 20mb. Apa dah jadi ni.... Hi Bro, Please help to do a speedtest using cable connection & post the screeenshot. pls stop all Internet connection while performing the test. You can PM me the screenshot too & I'll guide you with troubleshooting guides. Thanks.

QUOTE(blankerroo @ Nov 5 2014, 02:56 PM) Guys, I stumbled upon this thread when trying to find out how Time Fibre Home Broadband performs in the real world as opposed to on-paper specs listed on their website. Question: Is Time Fibre Home Broadband available at 3 Residen Condominium, Desa Melawati? I tried searching for it via the availability search website (http://time.com.my/help/availabilitysearch.asp) but couldn't find my condo listed there. Just wanted to confirm whether this is true with you guys just in case the website is not up-to-date. Hi Bro, Thank you for dropping by to this thread...welcome Bro  I'm sorry as 3 Residen is not yet ready for service. Feel free to PM me your particulars, we'll keep you posted once it's ready. Cheers

QUOTE(blankerroo @ Nov 5 2014, 03:04 PM) Furthermore, has anyone tried streaming Netflix 4K stream (example shows: The Blacklist, House of Cards) with Time Fibre? I wanna see whether it is able to stream at full quality or not. Netflix's official requirement for 4K streams is at least 17 Mbps Internet connection if I'm not mistaken. All these while, I've been streaming Netflix at 1080p Super HD and Hulu Plus at 720p HD at full quality with no issues at all, using my Maxis Fiber connection at 10 Mbps. But it would be even better if I could have multiple simultaneous high quality streams, so that my children can stream via iPad while I can watch via Apple TV, while at the same time downloading on my computer, with no drop in video quality. Anybody tried the above using Time Fibre? Hi Bro, For true 4K streaming, it's advisable to have bandwidth at least 20Mbps & above. If you are able to stream smoothly with Maxis Fiber, definitely there is no problem with Time Fibre... just be reminded avoid the given E1200 Router if you want better performance. Thanks.

I have no complain on Time Fibre until recently where the line speed starts to drop. Mine is on astro IPTV package by the way and I dont know whether it affect the whole performance or not. Hi Bro, Try do some tests & show us ya..

QUOTE(hcleong @ Nov 5 2014, 04:34 PM) Any one know which brand of wifi router can be use for Time Fibre? The wifi router come with Time only allow Class C neywork, while I need one with class B network for my office. And that Time wifi router really bad... always hang by itself. Hi Bro, Yes many are facing the same problem. You have the following options : 1) Upgrade to Time Business Router (Cisco SRP527W) (need some tweaks, default firmware is buggy as well) 2) Try Cisco Routers such as 1800/1900 Series 3) You may utilize your Firewall to connect. PM me if you need detailing. Thanks.

QUOTE(blankerroo @ Nov 5 2014, 05:24 PM) I am enjoying good performance, but I'm thinking of the future when a lot of Netflix streams will be on 4K. For now I don't even have a 4K TV, but when I do in the future, I would want to upgrade my broadband speed to at least 20 Mbps and above, which on paper Time Fiber is the most economical way to go. Time Fibre's prices when compared to Maxis Fiber is even lower, and Time Fibre doesn't implement quota at all (at least that's what I read when comparing the T&C between Time & Maxis Fiber; Maxis is like Unifi where they specifically state in the T&C they have a quota system and reserve the right to implement it in the future, but for now they do not yet impose it). To me, at least on paper, Time Fiber is the way to go. But as jjj2 mentioned, it's not yet available in my condo, so maybe in the future hopefully. Yes Bro,..the Unifi & Maxis Fiber quota based policy that has already highlighted in the T&C is not favorable to us. Stay tuned Bro...good things come last..LOL

QUOTE(D_L @ Nov 6 2014, 08:52 AM) really interested in time fibre after did some reading...unfortunately i've registered with unifi and the installation should be done this coming saturday...thinking of to cancel it and proceed with time fibre...any of u guys here have any experience doing that? Hi Bro, Not worry about this...as long as you have not activated your Unifi, you may still cancel it. Eventhough you have got it installed, you can switch over to Time Fibre, under Easy Switch Promo, you will be given back RM500 rebate to cover your Unifi Penalty. Cheers

QUOTE(blankerroo @ Nov 6 2014, 09:20 AM) Does Time Fibre work with Apple Airport Extreme? I have one at home now, but I use it in "Bridge mode" (did I get the term right?), i.e. Just using it as a WiFi access point while my actual router is the one supplied by Maxis. Maxis doesn't allow using other routers, but there are unofficial ways to bypass that blockage. Still, I'm not techy enough to do it myself so I don't bother. What about Time Fibre? They allow using Apple Airport Extreme? Hi Bro, Yes it works with Apple Airport Extreme

QUOTE(Matrix @ Nov 6 2014, 09:56 AM) Actually 4k streaming is tipu wan...even full HD streaMing also tipu...Netflix is good..but nowhere near the FullHD of typical bluray disc which needs a bit rates of 30Mbps or more... Netflix is currently only around 5Mbps I think..for their 'SuperHD'. The internet dont have so much bandwidth yet for true FullHD streaming yet....much less 4K. Abou 30pct of bandwidth in USA internet already sucked up by Netflix currently...and that's not even true FullHD yet! That said, the quality of Netflix video is pretty good...just dont buy into the 4K hype too much....having the resolution without the actual content is useless. We can have 1080p rips at about 2GB file size...we all know how the quality is...everything downsampled and all details lost. Yeah..it is 1080p....but no point. Ya Bro....the Netflix quality is adjustable according to our bandwitdh....of course they cant transfer such raw unencoded to us...many 1080p are actually downsized to 720p...But to really stream 4K or Ultra HD...I'd say the current bandwidth we have in Malaysia is saddening !

QUOTE(blankerroo @ Nov 6 2014, 10:01 AM) I don't know what legal streaming sources you can go for to watch TVB dramas, but for sports, you do have an alternative to Astro. I watch my Champions League through Watch ESPN app (on Apple TV or iPad), and my Premier League via NBC Sports Live Extra app on my MacBook or iPad. So I'm pretty much covered from all angles. All in all the cost is cheaper too. If you wanna have a look at what's available, do go browse this guy's website: www.izzudrecoba.com. He sells a variety of streaming services packages. TVB Drama sources vry easy to find ...hihihi...

QUOTE(hcleong @ Nov 6 2014, 11:14 AM) It the wifi router support Time Fibre? Hi Bro, The Asus RT-N14UHP definitely can support Time Fibre...it's a home Router...which has 3x9dBi long antenna...pretty good coverage..but not to RC concrete. The problem is you are looking for Class B Business Router..this Asus is Class C... If your office has Firewall...you may utilize it, there's no need to get additional Router. Thanks.
