Finally the technician arrived to check my unifi quality. They fixed tester at my end and at dp box. According to them my signal loss very low. That means fiber cabling perfectly done.
Surprisingly at noon i did speedtest infront of them about 5 times all result hit 90Mbps.
According to them even though its broadband we still sharing with rest subscribers, if users get increased the bandwidth utilization become higher and we see drops.

Basically the broadband is not dedicated line. If TM allocate 2Gbps for the exchange it will be shared to rest of the users.

So no solution unless more complains on low speed due to insufficeint of bandwidth, TM need to increase.

Im watching "Moneyheist" which i got addicted now. What i noticed is the series stated as 4k ultra HD. But when play it the resolution is always 3.83mbps/1080.
I quickly checked other 4k content all stops at 15+mbps.
I wonder why moneyheist just stops at 1080 when the content stated as 4k.
I reported to netflix not to put wrong info..
Can you guys play that series and check if seeing same as me.
It plays in 1080 or 2160..

Unfortunately, after reading all you've done, etc.. It does appear to be an issue with your line connecting and maintaining a stable fast connection with Netflix's servers. Also seems like not much you can do except to keep complaining and hoping TM does sort it out on their end and makes good to your place.

Lastly, Yep.. Money Heist or as I prefer it to have been called "La casa de papel" is really good stuff.. I haven't seen the S03 yet. Looking forward to it. thumbup.gif

Question: if I bought Netflix gift card off 7eleven, is the value applicsble to just one-off payment?
E.g. gift card worth RM100
deduct family plan for July RM51.
So will there be a remaining balance or will it be gone?
*
There will be a remaining balance. Usually, better to pay with card as exact amounts will be deducted automatically.. But if really no choice and you prefer the GC route? then you have to make sure there's always sufficient balance for the service to deduct when the time comes. Else, service will be interrupted. Then you have to head out an buy another GC to enter on the site.

Thanks for the explanation.
The reason I prefer using gc right now is because I could purchase it off 7eleven for 20% discount.
Hopefully you're right that they will deduct off the remaining unused balance, because as of now, I could not check any balance remaining, except in my mental calculation. laugh.gif

Ah... RP eh... Was wondering why you'd rather use GC as opposed to the easier card/PP method.. I see.. brows.gif brows.gif

Long time back, before they officially launched in Malaysia, etc.. Used GC for awhile and could check balance online. Unsure how it's done now. Drop by and chat with the Netflix CS.. I'm sure they can check for you.

Binge-watching thieves give all-new meaning to ‘Netflix and chill’

A check by the Malaysian Cyber Consumer Association (MCCA), a body set up last year to advocate the rights of internet users in the country, has found that scores of Netflix accounts could have been exposed to hacking, where someone is able to log in to an existing profile and watch shows for about a quarter of the monthly fee.

These illegal users may have bought the usernames and passwords of genuine Netflix accounts for a fraction of the cost – RM10 according to syndicates operating through social media, said MCCA.

This has existed for quite awhile, even in the USA, when it was US only subs. If Netflix can't as yet solve it.. Don't know what much others can do..At least, not without affecting the ease of us favored by Netflix and users. Most should be able to know when someone else has used our accounts on an unrecognized device. Similarly, those who buy such accts off socmed, tend to know exactly what they are buying and how it was sourced.

cheapest netflix pack locally is rm17 per month, right?
https://www.soyacincau.com/2018/11/14/netfl...-plan-malaysia/

in india... it's rm12 per month.

and that's not good enough!!

this ALT in India charges rm18 PER YEAR!

QUOTE
Part of Alt's popularity stems from pricing, in a market that is extremely sensitive to it. A 12-month Alt package costs 300 rupees (RM18), compared to Hotstar and Amazon's US$14 (RM59). Netflix's cheapest plan is US$2.88 (RM12) per month. "If you have to address mass India, you have to be as near free as possible," Pantvaidya said.

Don't mind em... People already show they are willing to pay.. Just need to price it accordingly.. Of course, I don't expect say Asterruk to be cheap until RM12 per month. Higher IMO, also can..If only it was that easy though.. Sigh.

I too just finished the season 3 of La Casa De Papel, while I'm very disappointed at how we were left hanging, can't wait for the fourth season too.. As for Flash and Arrow, they are "somewhat okay" BUT nowhere near the awesomeness of the first 2 on the list. So if you are someone who has to finish a series once started? You might want to not watch those or at least, delay watching unless super bored and nothing better. I'd recommend..
1.. Stranger Things (Murica)
2.. The Protector (Turkish)
3.. Designated Survivor (Murica)
4.. Orange is the New Black (OITNB, Murica)
5.. Also please tell me that you've seen "House of Cards"? If you haven't, start with that. Anyways all on this list are definitely the addicting type and a much better watch than The Flash and or Arrow.. Enjoy.. biggrin.gif

Haha "Murica" i wanted to ask what language is tht...
Searched for it and that is thick slang for America, patriotic american address so ? Hahaha

Designated Survivor also in korean, just started 1st episode.
Korean will be more emotional..
Lots of sentimental, some movies can bring tears.

Protector just checked, beginning it self i liked the background music. Lets go further. Glad its in english audio too.

Resurrection Ethrugul nice background too. Too bad just in turkish , very hard to follow the subtitle. They speak quite fast.

Even korean i can follow but turkish i had to catch the subtitle fast missing the screenplay..

Stranger Things not playing yet, cover looks like 80s kids series. Orange is the new black and House of cards never tried yet.

Turkish history-themed series 'Diriliş Ertuğrul' bids farewell to viewers

user posted image

Turkey's popular, history-themed TV series "Diriliş Ertuğrul" ("Resurrection Ertuğrul"), which has been exported to 60 countries, bid farewell to the screens with its 50th episode last night. Since its premiere on the state-run Turkish TV channel TRT 1 in 2014, "Diriliş Ertuğrul" has captured the attention of television audiences across Turkey and the region. One of the more successful Turkish TV exports in recent years, the show is based on the history of the Oghuz Turks in the 13th century. It centers around the life of Ertuğrul, the father of Osman I, the leader of the Ottoman Turks and later, the founder and namesake of the dynasty that established and ruled the Ottoman Empire.

Netflix uhd 4k requires 25mbps. Actual is like 18-20.

Audio...
Lossy = dolby, dolby digital plus, dts.
Lossless = dolby true hd, dtshdma, dolby atmos, dtsx.

Netlfix Dolby atmos only found with a few devices... appletv, certain smart tvs.
Others get only lossy dolby digital.

I always prefer watching content in its original audio and reading the English subs as they come by. Luckily, it poses no issues (as yet) for me with foreign films. Oh yeah, don't be fooled by Stranger Things' cover image. The series while majorly stars kids, is not a kid show. Plenty deep meaning. There are others I can recommend, but you've got your plate full now..

I would dedicate at least twice that internet bandwidth. The rest, is as AVFAN says. But then since you asking, guess it's safe to assume that you already have the necessary hardware.

time flies... actually more like 2 months for 3 seasons.

skip the start/end credits, it is <40 min per episode... and i skip certain parts sometimes.

it is not the best show i've watched but is certainly the longest.

great time to binge on it as there is a dearth of good shows at this time.
