I only watch using laptop/pc. Never ever will use device as it consume battery + screen size very small LOL.

i'm using since 10mbps. the new equipment much difference?

even new adv50 unifi users wont get maximum speed(wifi) if using TM stock router. direct connection thru lan only will help u getting maximum speed. i already change my router to a better one and the result ive got maximum speed with wifi connection.

tried calling up 100 for upgrade to ADV50 from VIP20.. CS told me to visit TMpoint as ADV50 request is usually limited to landed houses only due to concerns high rise users may not get full speed out of the package

i use my own ac68U for 30mbps. any reason i need new btu ? or no difference

BTU not selling in Market. Request new one from TM will cost u add more 2 years contract.

No difference. Even my old HG850a BTU is capable of 2.4/1.2 gbps. The only thing that may make a difference is the Ethernet port. The old ones are 100mbit only while the new BTU are gigabit. Then again UniFi is only 50 for now.

stock router wifi connection wont give u 40-50mbps actually, the highest i got when i use it around 28-36mbps. mostly below 30mbps.

ah i see.

yeah doubt gigabite for wan matters for current speed.

as for lan, all my devices is connected to each other via router which has 1gigabit, so not going to matter really

i just wondered because i've been experiencing drop connections playing heroes of the storm to the US server. so wondering is this either due to the old btu or maybe other internet users from region affected as well.

same shit happened to me playing hearthstone.

Absolutely zero difference, speed wise. In fact I'd rather steer clear of the newer BTUs for reliability sake as the components in them are actually cheaper made than the original Alcatel BTUs.

I tend to agree with that.

My UniFi was installed back in Dec 2011 and the Huawei HG850a BTU is still going strong. In fact when TM came last month to check on my HyppTV problem, they replaced the STB and also offered to replace the BTU but I declined. Don't fix what ain't broke.

A bit of nostalgia, how UniFi was installed back in 2010. Actually same thing today but 2-man team instead of 3. Other than the equipment, not much has changed.

offcourse.... processing such a huge demand of downloading, torrenting sure hang sometimes...


plus sometimes, we get bad ip....so need to restart....

longest my device is more than 1 month....

The router usually crashes (auto reboot) when the RAM is all used up and all, normally from too many simultaneous connections especially torrents.

Hahaha i second that, there are teacher who like torrent but maybe 1 or 2 young and new teacher. Torrent and streaming making the ram drains alot.
