QUOTE(iori_argami @ Mar 2 2015, 02:33 PM) hi there, thanks for your help. but it is not i'm looking for. need a conventional fax line... as i already have a fax machine.. from what i see thru redtone, is sending fax... i'm also looking for receiving fax... regarding p1, i'm 1 of the disgruntled user. been on p1 fiber for rm99 for 2 year.... previously i'm verbally agreed that the price stay on rm99 even contract expired.. but once my contract expired, they inform that will charge me rm149 (normal price). i'm tempted to change to maxis as i noe 148 for 10mbps n get rm25 rebate for astro.. but in the end i did not, cos i wish to retain my number n i have to use astro iptv... until last month... p1 inform me that they are discontinuing the fiber service n since they merge wit TM... it will convert my plan to RM 199 5mbps plan... without asking my permission. thus i straight cancel it and they said would require to wait for a month to take effect. and now, still surveying for the replacement of the ISP... REDtone instant office is for incoming and outgoing fax and a bonus free 015 SIP voice line.. The is an on going promo for 10mbps maxis fibre @ RM128 per month. The condition is you must be a Maxis mobile One Plan customer. You can port in to Maxis mobile from other telco too. This post has been edited by aeiou228: Mar 2 2015, 03:52 PM

No problem. Once you have the fibre line, you don't want to waste money on Astro already. Save the Astro money for Apple TV, Roku3, Android TV box and stream for free.

Bro if this is the case I suggest u to avoid Maxis. Cuz if the internet is down your Astro IPTV will be down as well. So more nagging session for u Unifi although a bit more expensive will save u the troubles

Hi guys, I have a few questions.
I stay in BU12 and apparently it's a Maxis-only area and there's no Unifi. I'm wondering if anyone staying in BU11 or BU12 can tell me if the connection's good in our area?
Also for the package, can I skip Astro and just get the fiber? Will it be more than RM148 if I just get fiber 10mbps and not take Astro? Was told by my friend that maybe Maxis will charge more if I don't take their Astro iptv package.
I'm really frustrated with the lack of Internet here and the most annoying part is my phone seem to have trouble with Maxis' signal here.

Normal price RM 148 for the 10M fiber internet.Taking internet only without the iptv will not get charged more.

Hi all, 10 Mbps user here at Shah Alam. Changed from 4mbps Streamyx after serious performance degradation.
So far so good. Youtube 1080p streaming smoothly consistently. The stock Technicolor router does time out once in a while, so most probably will get another router to replace it.
Not a gamer so not really sure much about latencies. Seems its the common complaint about Maxis Fibre.
