A powerful router can achieve what you wanted. Using homeplug can be tedious if your house is running 3phase cable since some of the double story are running it.

My house has 3phase cables but last week already tested most of the power points and the speed was really much better than using WIFI repeater. But I have not tested any powerful router.

I stop using homeplug and I using cable, I feel my internet much better. But I using asus n56u router

Having 5 AP is a lot. You may face interference issue and some devices have trouble roaming to another AP quickly.

I prefer a dual powerful AP setup.

So a powerful AP at the center of each floor and both connected to BTU thru homeplug?

Nope. Main router is connected to the BTU via Ethernet and the AP is connected to the main router via homeplug.

BTU > Main Router > Second AP

It should be done immediately, at least for most of our cases and mine too..

Anyone made appointment for UNIFI installation but technician did not turn up ?
TM charge Rm200 if customer Fong Fei Kei, how about the opposite now? I wasted half a day waiting.

Okay, regarding to RM20 rebate/discount.

I did complain to SKMM/MCMC as well (reported on 23 Okt, received on 24 Okt)
TM called me on 27 Okt, so the response time is quite ok

They called me to get some account information but I couldn't get back to her, so I called back to 100. And it takes about 1 hour for them to get the right department/person to talk to me.

For information, I signed up Unifi 30 for RM219 from TM.

So, the promotion offered to me is as following :

1. remain the same price (RM219) but can retain free calls and a new add-on of Ruby Pack.

2. get the RM10 rebate, but the voice call plan will be removed

I choose the first option, as my family are using HyppTV.

What surprising is that, these 2 offer can be done just through Phone.
yay! no need to wait in TM point.

so, that's means TM is changing their mind again. No need to go to TM Point.

and this will take about 3 working days.

forget to ask about contract period, but it is not a big deal as their is no other ISP for me to choose from...

and let's pray that the price doesn't increase, again...

because during last time, the RM219 offer by TM is actually RM199 as they confirm with me is this price when asking me to upgrade from VIP10 to Unifi30... and come out with an excuse : because the owner is choosing Jumbo Pack. But then I am sure the person told me will free jumbo pack, but no free call, and the price remain same.. BTW, I just remembered that there was a "trail period" before they offer me this price. I get to view Jumbo pack but doesn't aware about the speed. I thought it was TM system glitch, but sadly it is not XD

I can see some same complaint same with my case over here in lowyat forum too....

That's the thing. I saw you guys get the discount like right after visited the TM Point.

Yeah, you better check again. Else you lose more, it will be pro-rated...

Yeah. Will reflect on the next billing according to the TM Point CS..

Have to waste time go to TM Point again

Saw an ad on this forum 30mbps RM179 , question is do we have to add on whatever tv package or can I just get Rm179 for free calls + free channels ?

TM is coming to install Unifi at my place soon, but the package price is still rm199 for 30mbps (pre promotional price).

Now how would i go about getting the rm179 promo price? Just go to TM Point and ask nicely? Cheers

Which branch u went to? i got my rm20 discount at bayan baru branch last week.
