Since like you have a plan ady! Good man

Damage can buy new router

Hello all,
Great to see TIME has been keeping itself ahead of all competitors!
Now I have a bit of a headache with Asus router.
Since it has been upgraded to 500Mbps for free, my Asus old router can't keep up to speed in wireless N, hitting 150Mbps only, while LAN cable hitting 500Mbps without issues.

Any Asus router to recommend to utilise this speed new speed hike? Budget is around RM500.
Thank you!

Add another RM50 can buy new DIR-882 Can check at TIME Self Care Page!

I'm not using that router actually, i already has Asus AC86U before Time, but that day i received email from Time saying there is new firmware upgrade so i hand itchy plug in the router to perform upgrade, after that i saw nothing happened then unplug the router now become like this

Let's hope we don't have to wait close to 1 year again for this round of speed / price "upgrade". By end of the year as per MCMC???

I used, quite a few brands of routers before and happy with Asus performance so far.
Hearsay DIR-882 is quire awesome, anyone here has experience to share in terms of wifi range, stability, and speed?
Thanks!!

Yes, you're right with the distance.

How long have you been using this TIME stock router?
Cannot reset?
If planning to get new router. You can order from Self Care.
Cheaper than AC1900 which I bought last time.

Thanks bro.

Waiting for new technology and buy or wait until all the price go down.

The problem comes from Astro. Do pressure and complaint to Astro and pester them to negotiate with TIME to settle this ASAP.

I'm about to tell him this also

Thanks for the link bro!
I thought it was out of my budget range until saw your link. My Gosh. Haha...

Astro just giving standard reply in Facebook. Negotiating with partner blah blah blah . Similar like last time. Hopefully faster this time round with directive from MCMC.

The broadband portion should now be less than rm148 for 100mbps since both maxis and time have both reduced price

But mind you the router is from China so basically there is no local warranty, you have to take your risk since the price is almost 40% cheaper than local unit.

straight downgrade to rm99.

saving almost rm50 per month

Your C1200 still there. Didn't throw yet?

Maybe you can find some ways to recover the router.

Thanks.

Yup, probably can claim warranty from Time maybe?

Hi, I’m currently under contract wit a non-time broadband provider and wish to change to time broadband. Can anyone advise how can this be done?

Thanks.

ok i called customer service again, and they told me there will be no increase in subscription fee if i redeem the free DIR-882 while renewing to 24 months contract. phewwwwww
