I'm also living in a condo. The only time it will connect to 2.4GHz is when I just restart the router, once I disconnect the WiFi then reconnect it again and it will be on 5GHz.

Yes, and it's usually apple or mid tier android devices

Registered to transfer from Maxis to Unifi, still waiting for Maxis's phone call
Unifi agent offering 6+2 months free subscription
And I dont need to pay an extra RM10 monthly for public IP

Total saving:
RM149*8 Months: RM1192 (excluding SST)
Plus, every month afterwards I save RM10
So basically another RM10*12 Months: RM120 till the day I switch again
Next step I'm going to move my RM79 Maxis postpaid to Hotlink, since no more one prime unlimited everything

Bye bye Maxis

👍 save wherever possible. I assume it is 500mbps? as below that no public IP.

For Maxis, have to call them, at least based on my experience.

Yep, 500Mbps cause I need public IP for my VPN (Gonna thanks TIME for their bad routing to China)

Agent told me not needed, they will call
Cause last time his client called CS, request transferation
However, later CS called and claims they never receive such request

During my time, I waited for a few days and it is like 2 more days UniFi will come and do the necessary but still no call from Maxis.
Called Maxis to "check" my transfer and passed to another team to offer me.

If you need the offer, then yes call them. For his case, I think he do not need any offer from Maxis, thus will just let Maxis to approve.

Contacted them via twitter this afternoon, they've unlink my postpaid from the fibre plan
So just need to wait for their CS to call again to confirm my request
To be honest, unless they can provide me 8 months rebate plus permenant waver on extra charge of public IP
It will still be bye bye
------------update on 22/10--------------
Transfer request rejected, need to clear the balance even when the bill is not out yet
Resubmitted transfer request again

Just as I switch to Maxis from Unifi via your contact, you’re going the opposite direction.
Me now making sad pikachu face.

Just go for the cheaper ones lah, that guy didnt even send me my commission

with new upgrade postpaid plan, confirm no maxis one prime anymore? which means any maxis postpaid + maxis fiber no longer offer unlimited data?

Maxis Can you confirm on this?

Still available, refer to this FAQ

You get the unlimited 4G backup dongle as well

Manage to get 1Gbps home fibre for RM159 with this combo

https://www.maxis.com.my/en/faq/promotions/...-promo-apr2024/

your fibre RM159 + postpaid right? or fibre + postpaid = RM159

just that with the new postpaid upgrade, wondering when maxis will remove it, from someone posted earlier seems removed? maybe

my maxis 30Mbps fibre (RM59 for 12 months, RM89 for 12 months), 24 months contract end this 11/11

if no more unlimited i might as well port the maxis 30Mbps fibre to Unifi 100Mbps if can get RM79
then perhaps upgrade my maxis postpaid 79 to 109 if i need unlimited

Mine the same package

Fibre RM159 + RM40 postpaid. Anyway have been using this postpaid for few years already, so just migrate the fiber from unifi

I can confirm that no way you can get permanent waiver for public IP. At most get 8 months free. If the aim is cheapest monthly subs, Unifi is the way. After 2 years can even apply SWU plan.

It's normal nowadays, people can freely move to any provider of their choice unlike during streamyx time.

Oh patutlah

Yep, btw I tried to change my postpaid 79 to hotlink 45
They said I need to follow SOP, transfer to hotlink prepaid for a month before they allow me to change again
And then they transfer my call to Maxis's marketing department
RM20 rebate for 3 years, no contract
So RM59 for 300GB of data for my phone, I'm keeping this
Still waiting for the call from their fiber department

Some updates of my experience of transferring from Maxis to Unifi
Unifi offered me 6+2 months free bill if I change to them
Since Maxis refused to give me any meaningful promotion package to recontract, I decided to change ISP

Submitted my transfer request on 17/10, had to contact M's CS via twitter and provide them the transfer ID
Because my postpaid plan was linked to the fibre account, they need to unbind them
Requested to change my postpaid 79 to hotlink 45, they told me I need to use a month of prepaid before they allow me to switch to postpaid. I said no problem, then their retention team told me they will give me RM20 rebate on my RM79 postpaid for 3 years without any contract, so I'm keeping that number with Maxis till the rebate is over

Didnt receive and call back from their fibre department
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
22/10
Agent told me transfer request was rejected
Contacted Maxis again, they told me I need to clear the balance before they will let me go
Paid the bill for this month+another month in advance, submitted request again

Maxis called back in the afternoon, they said they are willing to counter Unifi's offer with the same 8 months bill rebate
Still, they said it is impossible to give me free access to public IP since it is an add-on service...
Ended up saying no to Maxis, but I did told the CS rep I'm happy with their service for the past 3 years, just not the price
Checked with CS rep, no need to return any of the equipments if you are out of contract

In the evening, Unifi send me the installation info for confirmation
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
24/10
Unifi 500Mbps installed, they give me a skyworth 2 in 1 box lol
However, you can use back the old ONU if you want to, plug and play
So far encountered pictures on twitter not loading (again, typicall of unifi)
Fixed it by using Controld DNS

Bye guys, see you all in 24 months lol
For me, the total saving will be:
RM149 x 8 Months= RM1192
No more public IP subscription required: Another RM10 per month saving till I terminate/TM starts charging fees for it

A good lesson to learn is, when doing transfer always clear your bill. Back when I did my transferfrom Unifi to Digi Fibre, TM ask for 1 month advance payment. Any balance will be refunded later.
Enjoy your Unifi, and meanwhile your Maxis Fibre will still run for a few days to 2 weeks. Should you decide to do a side by side comparison just plug back the Maxis router into lan2 of the modem.

Thanks
Maxis already potong myy service today, too late to try
But I'm seeing more and more SSID changing from @Unifi to @Maxis in my area, that's quite alarming...
