I thought there is an Rm500 from TIME if you switched from other ISP? Maybe you can ask jjj2 or yeapch01.

They dont give u rm500 cash.

They give u rm500 in the form of rebate for your time bill.

So u still need to pay 500 penalty

What router are you being given by TIME currenctly? If Dlink 850, i believe no free router because the Dlink is capable of gigabit ethernet and Wifi AC already.

I am on 100 mbps. Using the 850 router. Now getting speeds of 200mbps on speedtest.

Tomorrow technician coming to fix the new free router ac1200.

Lets see hw it goes... Haha

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.

Wow, I am on 24 months contract since I just changed to TIME this year. On 100mbps for RM149. So what's gonna happen to my plan? They don't even announce properly and address existing customers, seriously?

Archer C1200 also cannot. I’m using that now
Can only get around 250 to 270 over WiFi
You need archer c1900 and above to get 500Mbps (if your clients are ok)
*
C1200 can get 350-400mbps dl.

Already tested on s9plus.

If test on laptop shud be definately faster. But laptop rosak so yea..

Its not router problem. Its ur device whether can support 500mbps.

But dir850 confirm cant.

Ac1200 is so much better than 850.

Dir850 signal and speed sucks. I just changed to ac1200
