hey guys, seems like maxis has been doing pretty well these days after reading through this forum. I do have an experiment for u guys to check out. instead of doing speedtest.net, why dont u guys go try fast.com instead. Post your screenshot. fast.com is a speedtest server by netflix. it actually measure speed for your streaming especially for netflix. i am looking into maxis fiber 50mbps or 100mbps depends on your feedback here guys. A heavy netflix streamer here(i have nothing againts other streaming/downloading service btw). Thanx a ton in advance.

I did the speed test on fast.com and it showed 81 Mbps. On speedtest.net, my upload speed is 51 Mbps and download speed is 42 Mbps. So, fast.com shows a faster speed.

So i assume u never had any problem with streaming 4k on youtube and netflix(if u use one). I am struggling with unifi, had to restart the router to get certain ip to get good streaming speed. other than that its always 10-13mbps on netflix but full 50mbps speed anywhere else. can i get more ppl to provide feedback? any other thing i should be aware of before i cancel my less than 2yr unifi account?

Luckily no issue coz my place only have Maxis Fiber. I get it. U are purely based on maxis infra. I always thought maxis infra based connection are most likely to be rly reliable. Does maxis user has to use vlan? Or is it optional? I mean can u request for non vlan connection?

I'll never recommend Maxis to anyone who is into hardcore gaming and/or competitive games.
I've been told by a Maxis staff, 4 days ago on Tuesday at 7.30 pm that every 48 hours your IP lease will be renewed, if you're on public IP that is.
Hence if you're in competitive gaming, don't expect to have a smooth connection. I've also got a case ongoing for few months now for constantly getting disconnections, randomly the line drops, the router's internet light turns red and then green again - this leads to your competitive rank drop for no reason. And of course Maxis will not compensate you in any way.

Oh man sad if you have a breakdown during the holiday season.
Its just a snowball effect... their staff on leave, more uses on using up less resources. Just delays and more delays because they have to coordinate with TM.
The last time my system went down, it was the Deepavali break... took them 2 weeks to come over.. And then only the TM mob came... maxis didn't even bother to show up.
But that was before all that 'maxpert' jive they are singing now.
On the other hand, speedwise they are delivering in my area.

I was in the same boat. Have to either add on Astro (monthly payments) or NJOI (upfront payment). THe option of IPTV with Astro also not cost effective.In the end, I am going back to Unifi

Install Astro on the go on your iOS or android devices then AirPlay or cast or mirror or HDMI to your tv.
