Hi guys, I am still thinking of either getting TIME or Unifi, I was leaning more towards TIME previously (for obvious reason) but recently I've heard a people complains saying that their TIME internet connections were unstable, lost of connections every now and then, is this true to anyone else here? 

By the way, I live in Bayan Lepas, Penang
*
So far using almost 3 years. Best ISP in my opinion with almost zero downtime. Only just few hiccups like DNS issue recently which solved pretty fast. Hopefully TIME will keep this good service. Trust me, once you get used to 100Mbps or above you will never want to try Unifi already.

I'm from Bayan lepas as well btw biggrin.gif

Thanks for reply, yeah. I prefer to plug right into the modem but I found one with 1 internet port + 4 port lan below.
tp-link-ac900-wireless-dual-band-wifi-router-archer-c20 (lazada). Not sure if got the ppoe to connect to time. But the lazada ads said can be used with time/unifi/maxis

edit: i found a console emulator for that / http://www.tp-link.co.za/emulators.html and it does have ppoe.

Ya this one should be ok

Hows the performance and reliability? My e1200 need to restart every 24 hour or so.
*
So far so good. Didn't turn it off for one week still no problem. No need to restart or whatsoever. Got 6-7 devices connected most of the time. Streaming, downloading and gaming all at the same time no issue. Wifi coverage also very good.

ZTE Router provided from TIME and the 300Mbps will give you exact same speed.

However, you may go for a new Wireless AC WiFi Router.
I can suggest you.
1. TP-Link Archer C7
2. TP-Link Archer C9
3. Tenda AC15
He is using ZTE H298N provided by TIME.
This router became worse until speed upgrade.

Previously was on 10 Mbps plan
Now upgraded to 100 Mbps plan and upgrade router to Archer C9
*
Oh then no need to check already. Need to change to AC router to get full speed on wifi.

im pretty sure Time's own DNS blocks certain websites, especially those porn sites. I've come across that page a few times when on Time's own DNS.

Means you always browse that site right tongue.gif

Hi all, do you have any idea... my Tenda AC15 problem connect to unify.. i already install firmware and try connect but not work...

Not sure since i'm using TIME. But must be something to do with enable iptv/hyptv. You can ask in unifi thread. They should know better.

Anyone using tenda ac15 router? I read tenda ac15 range is better than stock dlink dir 850 in here. But I find tenda ac15 2.4ghz wifi range and performance is worst than dlink 850.
My download and upload speed is terrible when using 2.4ghz wireless N connection at far end of the house. Any special setting in tenda ac15 for those who find tenda ac15 range is better?
The range and performance is improve if I connect using 5ghz but it is also not significant improve when compare with dlink 850. rclxub.gif

Mind to share how big your house? Me using AC15 no issue so far.

"not really full" meaning??

Yes, I do agree that TIME is slower at night. Perhaps, ~20-30% slower.
*
How slower? Is it take longer to load webpage or buffer when streaming or slower file download?
