Any maxis Home fiber user at bukit mertajam? Got call from them ask me to switch from vip5 to 10mb maxis. Is the line reliable at BM?

My First Day experience with Maxis Home Fiber 10Mbps (switch from Unifi VIP5)

Using same BTU from TM (Huawei some model)
Maxis Router (Technicolor xxx V3)

5pm test run.

Speedtest - DL-9.65Mbps UP-10Mbps (server Time KL)
Torrent (utorrent) - Game of thrones latest Ep (so i know the torrent is healty) - DL - 1MBps ~ 1.1MBps
Streaming - Youtube - FAST
- Kissanime - some streaming sites - FAST
- Some Hentai web streaming (=.=) - FAST
- Cooldrama - FAST

10pm test run.

Speedtest - DL-9.65Mbps UP-10Mbps (server Time KL)
Torrent (utorrent) - Game of thrones latest Ep (using same torrent as on 5pm) - DL - 200KBps ~ 250KBps
Streaming - Youtube - FAST
- Kissanime - some streaming sites - FAST
- Some Hentai web streaming (=.=) - FAST
- Cooldrama - FAST

So i guess they throttle torrent D/L.


Will continue test for few days...

thanks for your awesome reply..

well i do have a TP Link router i use previously to replace for my TM unifi router. But now the new router from maxis have VOIP included which i need it also for my house use.

I have read many forum talking about using Technicolor router as VOIP only and custom router as Internet dial up + Wifi.

the way todo it is change the Technicolor router to some bridge mode and the custom router using the PPOe something.

When maxperts come todo the installation, they just bring the maxis router on bike. Ask me to buy new phone for the voip. I ask them why I can't use my phone currently plug on the btu use for my unifi? They don't know and need call the real maxperts on the phone.

Well i need the landline phone and use the phone as my home security system and what i did was, bought a new powerful router (no RJ11 of course) but i set this router as AP, connect it to the Maxis original router. Turn off MAxis original router Wifi and use the new router wifi instead.

Maxis just change my router to the new TP Link (100Mbps package). Got some question..

when i use 2.4GHz wifi, my download speed only at 45-55Mbps,
if i change to 5GHz wifi, my download speed will goes up to 95Mbps...

is 2.4Ghz wifi always half of max download speed?

Also my eVOIP is not working, say will reset it wait 24hrs.

The setting on the new TP link router, they use 'TM' option is it suppose to be Maxis option?

The eVOIP ID i get is 822 is it correct?

This is the setting they set...is it correct for the VOIP Vlan?

hi can you show me yr router VOIP Vlan ?

Same as below?

yes same, C5v

can help check ur router setting is same as below?

emmm.... it's the same. looking at the router log, show the VOIP registration failed. guess i'll check with maxis cs.

also can u guys 2.4GHz wifi speed test can get 100Mbps?

mine only can get 50Mbps..==

yup, that's what i want to know... 2.4GHz = 50Mbps, 5Ghz, 100Mbps..

yup all the id and password is correct..i'll check with CS.

No idea, the VOIP status show 'down' at voice tab.

Any router to recommend with below requirement?
1. Support AP mode
2. High Power 9dbi antenna
3. dual band (2.4Ghz, 5Ghz)
4. cheap

If I buy re450 WiFi extender for the 5ghz band, will I get about 90% of my 100Mbps download speed.?

yes no antenna, super lousy. get dual band wifi extender...
