sorry not familiar with these two ISP since i'm a TIME user before this and TIME did not have coverage for my new home..


im a torrent user and dota2 player..
so streaming and browsing is not my kind..
thanks for the feedback given..

All ISP Maxis Fibre / UniFi / Time Fibre got quota.
Cuma belum implement je.

If your new house has UniFi & Maxis Fibre, that means TM lays the infra there, not Maxis.
And since the infra is owned by TM, go with UniFi.

Maxis Fibre is only worth it in areas where they have their own infra, not in areas where they piggyback on TM's infra.

What's the difference? The price is the same and you get the same product.

The major difference between Maxis and TM is that TM bundles IPTV while Maxis doesn't.

No, you do *not* get the same product.

Think of it this way. If you are with UniFi, if there is a *physical* issue with the fibre-optics (whether it is the BTU or the cable), UniFi will likely come out and service you straightaway. If you are with Maxis using Maxis infra, same thing.

If you are with Maxis, but using TM infra, then why should UniFi service you immediately, when they maybe have their own customers with similar or other issues? You can bet that your case will be lower priority. Not to say that you will have to wait a week, and of course if you don't have any physical issues then the matter does not arise, but it isn't the same product at all.

FWIW, I rarely have any issues with Maxis FTTH (using TM infra), and all of it so far was not physical issues but problems on Maxis end.

Maxis if with own its infra high chance they block p2p at peak hours. I am with maxis but on TM infra, no problem with p2p, bandwidth & latency. Almost third year with them with no complaint except with their incompetent installer

LOL it's the same product. Same price. Same Internet, VOIP, IPTV. Nothing is crippled.

Without statistics, one can't say whether fiber faults are resolved faster on Maxis-over-Maxis vs Maxis-over-TM. For example - What if Maxis takes significantly longer to dispatch their technicians than TM? Then, problems in Maxis-over-TM could actually be resolved at the same speed, even after escalation delay.

Fiber faults are exceptional and situational, such that it shouldn't be considered part of the "product". I feel sorry for anyone who puts significant weight in it. They are better off hedging against it with backup mobile broadband or DSL.

Really... I'd like to test that. When exactly are "peak hours"?

If you are talking solely about the *service*, and not the physical medium/infra through which the service is provided, I agree completely with you. The *only* difference is who's providing last-mile access; otherwise, the service is exactly the same.

The P2P blockage (although, strictly speaking, it's throttling) happens with TM infra as well, between 8pm - 2am. It does for me, at any rate.

I should consider myself lucky
RM118 per month is bloody cheap for reliable 10mbps

don't go with maxis , just switched to maxis 10mbps from unifi 5mbps ......Maxis suck at gaming , i got 200ping-300ping on games such as league of legends , 100-200 ping on Dota2.... with Unfi , i got both 20-25 ping.
