Hi guys, just wanna confirm
For maxis one prime bundled with maxis one mobile plan
There’s 300gb video streaming cap on both main line & subline. Is that correct?

If you have that bundled, it should be unlimited data.

Not just streaming.... According to the FUP (fair usage policy), it includes any data usage, accumulative to 300GB per month. If exceeds, they have the rights to throttle your speed whenever necessary.

Just called maxis hotline earlier, they specifically mention only for video streaming reach 300gb they’ll throttle.

Anyone here who reached more than 300gb mobile data streaming can confirm?

Confirm any usage of data more than 300gb, they will throttle youtube down to 480p... other internet uses not much throttling... But sometimes internet is very slow, not sure if its the 300gb cap or congestion..

However VPN easily rectifies this... When throttled, vpn will make youtube back to normal speeds... However sometimes when internet very slow, vpn will make it faster!! Therefore im not sure if maxis is throttling just youtube or all internet activities...

Anyways, Unifi finally reached my house... Should i use Maxis fibre or unifi? I know im asking on a maxis thread, but i read a lot of negative stuff about maxis fibre... Anyone wanna add in? Im staying in tanjung bungah penang..

Thanks sifus!

Which VPN can do that? biggrin.gif Share to us leh...

No fibre ISP is perfect.
You got to decide which ISP that you are more confident where its customer service support can give you better service, especially when it comes to technical fault, pricing dispute and others.
For me, I'll recommend Maxis lor... Maxis is better than TM Unifi for many reasons.

Some customer use TM Unifi and they're okay with it. It's not that TM network are bad, but...
When problem comes (e.g. modem problem, network down...), then you'll see TM's customer service will start to show their true colours ady...

Thanks for the feedback
So you tumpang subline under other people who subscribed to maxis fiber?
Btw, any vpn will do? Since other telco like unifi mobile still cap the youtube streaming to 480p even when on vpn.

Still in dilemma.. RM89 already two years contract... now another contract if go with unifi...

Hi all, I am having high pings of 200+ while playing Fortnite, with the server located in Japan/Korea. While my friends using Unifi/City Broadband are having pings of 70-90.

May i know who can help me on this?

If not, calling to maxis to somehow change on the routing will solve this problem?

That's something new to me eh... Use VPN to bypass throttle Maxis's speed cap...
Btw just to remind u guys, the official Maxis customer service agents are actually monitoring this forum topic from time to time... Pandai pandai la, if wan to share info like this here... Try not to reveal too much... Later maxis network team find ways to counter bypass the speed cap by the particular VPN, liddat all maxis customers kena, then that vpn trick doesn't work anymore or they make it harder to work 😓

Normally that one is condo

Crazy speed with crazy price

No ISPs cannot simply throttle VPNs just like China which is a government ruling.

People still need to connect to their company's VPNs to work remotely.
Throttle popular VPN services that's another story, that's why it's not good to choose thos highly popular VPNs such as Nord, ExpressVPN, VyperVPN etc.

Go for the lesser popular ones until you find the sweet spot then keep your mouths quiet about it.

Maxis is not so notorious in doing this. TM is way more nasty when it comes to throttling and surveillance. Back when Boosku ruling time, Malaysia was right up there on the surveillance top chart along with China, Turkey and Saudi Arabia.

I'm wondering about the apple tv bundled with fiber.
If I were to subscribe for 1 year for 500mbps and had to cancel because I had to move somewhere with no fiber on the next year.
What would be the penalty for apple tv 4k itself? I know fiber package would get waived.

Hi all, having some issues with online gaming and just thought I'd try to get some insight here. Whenever I try to play certain multiplayer games (specifically nintendo games and pc fighting games), I get errors relating to NAT type, preventing me from connecting to other players. I had already called Maxis to get a public address, and putting my console in DMZ has solved all issues, but is this the only solution? I've heard that it is generally unsafe to put my PC in DMZ so I'd like to avoid that if at all possible.
