No problem

It was a pain to download torrent last time on Streamyx, it was either no seeder or TM blocked the port, now I am just trying to seed as much as I can since TIME is generous enough to give us symmetrical upload speed

Speaking of seeding, I just realized I have seeded more than 2.7TB on a single torrent

You just got the infamous Dlink router glitch, you need to factory reset the router in order get back the normal speed.

As reported here and here.

Factory reset guide.

Make sure you know your PPPoE username and password first before proceeding.

You did the test using LAN cable (cat5e/cat6 cable) or via WiFi?

Can you get full 100Mbps on local server?

Hehe, no problem, I am glad to help others here

I am using Asus RT-AC3200, I didn't do any special settings in the router, maybe your location is congested?

Any other user can do a speedtest to oversea's servers to confirm this? (US, UK etc.)

Hmm, out of my curiosity, why won't you use an ethernet cable if the router is just beside you (or your face as mentioned )?

I can see many people don't want to use cable either because it is ugly or router is too far away from their PC, so they got no choice but to go wireless, so this isn't applied to your case I suppose (router is very near and cable can be easily managed since it is short)?

Ethernet cable is cheap too, you don't have to spend few hundred bucks to get a WiFi USB adapter whose speed is not guaranteed.

Hmm okay, you never mention it is your LAN port limitation in your first post so I thought it was WiFi card.

So your laptop only comes with 100Mbps LAN port, I guess the USB port is also 2.0 only, I am not sure if USB 2.0 will bottleneck the speed or not since the native USB interface on AC WiFi card is USB 3.0

I have Asus PCE-AC68, tested it and only able to get this result.



There are 2 thick walls in between this WiFi card and router (Asus RT-AC3200), speed will go up when I get closer to the router.

Since you said your router is very close to you then I guess it should do the trick

Mine is PCIe based WiFi card (AC1900), the one you are going to get is USB based WiFi card (AC1200), so the performance might not be the same with mine, so don't blame me when you cannot get the speed that you wish to get later ya

Most likely WiFi card specs aren't the same.

IPv6 doesn't contribute to slow speedtest result because speedtest is done via IPv4 for now.

You can enable IPv6 in your router.

Please elaborate more on what you are downloading? Direct download/torrent etc.

I copied your download link to test on my connection, the speed is ok here though it doesn't max out my bandwidth (this is normal because rarely got any server can fully max out my connection ), alldebrid got speed limit applied to free account? Or you are using premium account?

Have you tried restarting the modem and router? And test LAN cable speed too if possible.

This afternoon I was on WiFi and just now I tried to download via LAN, it did max out my bandwidth (64MB * 8 = 512Mbps).

Probably routing issue, maybe yeap or jj can help you on this.

Try to PM them.

Can you list out all your gadgets (model)?

2.4GHz only - PS4, iPhone 4

2.4GHz and 5GHz - S6 Edge, iPhone 5, 6, 6, 6S, Xiaomi Note

Laptop and desktop capability depends on the WiFi card, since you didn't state the exact model so I cannot check for you.

You can do this to check if your WiFi card got 5GHz band yourself.

2.4GHz runs on b/g/n.

5.0GHz runs on n/a/ac.

n is usable on both 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz.

Some newer 2.4GHz WiFi cards do support n but it is limited to 2.4GHz only, if there is ac in the result then it means your WiFi card supports 5.0GHz.

If your Huawei modem is white color one (HG8240H) then it is a Gigabit modem, they won't change for you since it is already equipped with GE port.

Another router option would be TP-LINK Archer C7, price is around your budget (might need some top up).

HG8240 is also equipped with GE port.

I don't have Dlink 850L so I don't have any comment on it, I bought a C7 two months ago for my neighbour at RM 420, it is a pretty solid router below RM 500, so far I haven't receive any complaint from my neighbour who is on 100Mbps package, if you are using 100Mbps, it shouldn't have any issue (easy to achieve 100Mbps on 5GHz), if you are using 300Mbps/500Mbps package, please increase your budget for a more higher end router for a more stable speed via WiFi.

C7 is a router while D7 is a modem + router for ADSL+2 connection (like Streamyx).

Since we already have a Huawei modem (ONU) from TIME, so you just need to get a router which is C7 in this case.

Just PPPoe.

Those who already on TIME Fiber before the massive speed upgrade will remain the same monthly commitment fee.

For example, before free speed upgrade, 10Mbps package is RM 129, so after free upgrade to 100Mbps, the fee remains the same.

New user will follow new pricing.
