Well, as existing customer from 2015. Get 1Gbps for RM179 is a bargain actually. Hehe

I'm on existing 300mbps plan for RM179, but I will downgrade to 500mbps. 1gbps is overkill, most wifi device can't reach that fast anyway.

I just got the free TPLINK Archer C1200 from TIME.
Tested using my phone (AC1200 capable) 1 meter from the router, max 300Mbps DL, 500Mbps UL. Weird thing is it can reach 500mbps UL but DL only 300mbps. Maybe the router transmitting power is not good enough.

When I tested with the same conditions but using Archer C7(AC1750), I got 500+mbps DL and 500mbps UL.

No renewal of contract required right? My contract expired - don't wish to renew

How long from the day you requested till they come install?

Existing 300Mbps (RM189) --> 1Gbps (RM189)
Existing 300Mbps (RM169 wif Incog Promo) --> 1Gbps (RM179)

Existing 500Mbps (RM299) --> 1Gbps (RM199)
Existing 500Mbps (RM249 wif Incog Promo) --> 1Gbps (RM179)

If I want to switch from streamyx under contract to Time does Time still have the easy switch program to cover the termination fees?

What is incog promo? I'm on RM129 since the 10Mbps days so I'm without contract now. Am I eligible to get 500Mbps @ RM119?
If RM119 I'll continue with the package otherwise I might just save 30 bucks and downgrade to 100Mbps.

If you want 500Mbps on WiFi.

Get at least AC1900 and above.

The receiving devices must support too.

Thanks.

theoretically max speed and real life speed is very different you know  rolleyes.gif

QUOTE(FusionXY @ Oct 6 2018, 12:34 PM)
This is the link speed. In reality cannot achieve that speed.

Everyone here said can achieve 300Mbps max on 5GHz using AC1200.

Do read the Turbo Router thread and see which router can achieve what speed.

Thanks.

Highly doubt so. If u advertise 867mbps, even if can get 400mbps speed also ok. Nobody asking for full speed.

Besides i just did a speedtest again just now with ac1200 and Now i am getting 340mbps dl and 320 mbps ul speed.

So i am guessing is the full speed of 500mbps will be achieved by tomorrow once they make announcement.

Stay tuned tomorrow until they update the system to all the customers.

I'm getting 500Mbps on LAN cable. In the room 200Mbps DL and 300Mbps UL. biggrin.gif biggrin.gif
Still consider good. Don't need such high speed in the room. Waiting for the free router to come to my house.

Thanks.

If you upgrade to 1Gbps plan and re-contract for 24-months, then you are eligible for the free Dlink-882 router.

Time is installing on Monday and I signed up for 500 Mbps since no official 1 Gbps announcement last week. I will sign up for 1 Gbps. So, will Time install AC1200 or DR-882?

Official Package Revamp

100Mbps @ RM99

500Mbps @ RM139

1Gbps @ RM199

Is this official?
If yes, how about existing 100Mbps (RM149, still under 2 years contract)? Will auto cut to RM99?
