Quick question: for MDU/condo, does TIME provides fibre to each unit? or simply rely on same method as other ISPs (i.e. via existing copper infra of the condo)?

QUOTE(jjj2 @ Dec 4 2015, 05:35 PM) Thanks for your reply. I just wanna be sure before I subscribe. It's very common for ISPs to use copper for MDUs even though it's supposed to be "Fibre To The Home". It's understandable from business perspective for scalability. |

QUOTE(icez @ Dec 14 2015, 10:19 PM) Hi there! Can someone recommend a router to replace the Time standard router? I have 15 devices and most of the time streaming using Apple TV or Spotify lags like crazy. I'm currently using TP-Link Archer C7 (v2) based on the recommendation by The Wirecutter (link: The Best Wi-Fi Router) and it works well for my use cases, which is quite similar to yours. The price is not too bad for the superior performance gain that you'll get.Ps. I'm on Time's 12MB plan (old plan). It can handle multiple HD videos streaming very well. For example, in our house we're using our iMac as a media server, so I'll use Air Video HD on my iPhone to stream movies from the iMac, which I then Airplay it to the Apple TV. At the same time my sister would stream TV series to her phone and my brother would do the same with his iPad. No hiccup. (P/S: I'm using old-gen iMac that doesn't support direct Airplay to Apple TV. So the app is a nice workaround and I get to browse the folders on the iMac from my phone.) I can't verify for other routers but just thought of sharing my experience with you. Cheers.

QUOTE(killsilverstar @ Mar 29 2016, 11:02 PM) Ya..feel like crying..can't watch my favourite site at all Edit: the problem can be solved if you use a VPN but it not worth it to subscribe to one just for twitch. BTW Does anyone know any VPN that can bypass Netflix recently? Thanks. QUOTE(diablo2 @ Mar 30 2016, 09:56 AM) Have been using Getflix for streaming Netflix/Hulu/NBC Sports on Time with no problems since the "crackdown" on VPN/DNS by Netflix. There's a free 14 day trial so u can check it out first https://www.getflix.com.au/ to make sure it works for you. Same here, I've been using Getflix for a few months now and it works great. I bought the lifetime subscription for USD39. There's also a great deal on lifetime subscription (30) years that is not found on their website. If you sign up for their newletter here, you can also get a 10% discount for the first purchase. Enjoy!! https://deals.nerdapproved.com/sales/getfli...ion?rid=2799567 You can also use the Getflix mobile app to change the region of Netflix as you please. Easier than going to their website. The other thing that I like is, when at home, I've configured their DNS to my router (which was quite straightforward), but when I'm at other places that has wifi, let's say my parent's house or at a coffeeshop, I can configure their DNS to my phone's wifi connection so that I can still access the streaming services |
