join the revolution.. im in damansara perdana too and just changed from unibodoh to Time ... so far so good

My router placement in my condo is just 1 feet away from where my sofa is so pretty sure that's the sweetest spot in the house Tried fidgeting with the channels, upgraded to the latest firmware available, reset and reconfigured the router but the results are the same. On the current Time 100Mbps line, I am only able to achieve around 40+Mbps on wifi but can hit 80-90+ Mbps on LAN. Since the fibre was pulled all the way to my modem and not the last-mile-copper types, that rules out  any cabling issues considering my speed on LAN is very much acceptable.

Of course I tried my luck emailing Time Support and complained about the Linksys E1200 router they gave me 2 years ago. Here's their response:

"Please be inform that the given Cisco Linksys E1200 router is run on 2.4Ghz radio frequency band  which can support up to 40Mbps on WiFi. We regret to inform that we do not offer any router replacement. You may purchase the dual band router on your own or purchase the router from TIME through our selfcare portal."

So all things considered, does this mean I really need to get a new router to hit the promised land of 100Mbps and stop flogging the old E1200?

Checked the official link here: http://www.linksys.com/my/p/P-E1200/

Still find it hard to accept the E1200 can only support up to 40Mbps on WiFi.

Dear bro

Welcome on board. Kindly share your user experince in  Time fibre compare to unifi.

Thanks

Hi,

Is the promotion to change other ISP service to TIME still available?  Just recently know TIME has increase the bandwidth really interested right now.

Hi guys,

I am using TIME broadband at the moment.
My house has multiple ethernet ports for LAN cable including my rooms. The issue is how am I getting these ethernet ports workable or accessible to the internet?

At the moment the fiber optics go straight to the modem which was given by TIME then router.

Please advise.

Thank you.

Just got Time Fibre 100 Mbps, so for looks good.
However I'm not really impressed with the D-link DIR-850L router.

I have my own TP-Link Archer C7 router and want to use it instead. I had UniFi before this.

The tech guy who installed told me that all I should have to do is to change the PPPoE username and password and then I should be good to go.

Unfortunately I cannot connect. If I switch back to the D-link router (with the almost no settings) it just works...
Time Support just refers me to the manufacturer for support instead of giving me info enough for me to solve it on my own.

Anyone else in here using TP-Link with their Time Fibre who cares to share?

try call CS to chg installation date but still no one pick up..
thn my condo management call me whether Time call me to book a date for installation but i them they just send notification email to me without call me at all..
my condo management help me to call installer can chg to other date or not..
i hate my condo management..dont ask me why..very complicated story..fuuu

Hi Bro,

The new system, the Sales people who signs you up will be calling you to arrange for Installation Date & Time .

Thanks.

This is correct, and the sooner people realise this, the better.

TIME could spend the millions to fibre up a typical small taman of 200-300 households, but with only a 15-20% uptake, they'd already be operating at a loss providing the service. And typical modern Malaysians being the ungrateful,  self-entitled lot as they are, 2-3 months down the road, they'll start demanding Google Fibre standards of performance and service at 3rd world prices.

Malaysia needs a few more Unifi-level fiascos before they will truly appreciate it when good broadband comes along.

... or maybe not, if LYN represents an accurate cross-section of Malaysian society.

U guys so lucky got time
The rest of us so pity stucked with this Tm crap

Hi Bro,

This is very common design where all your Ethernet cables will be linked back to a centralized location (usually will be a DB/Centralized Switch), commonly this is also where the fibre termination point will be.

Some buildings are designed in a different way where your Fibre Wall Socket/Termination Point is situated at a different location.

Best if you could let me know more details about the cable routes of your unit.
We'd able to advise you with the best solutions to utilize those Ethernet Ports.

Thanks.

Hi Mavric,

Don't waste time with E1200, its hardware barrier just won't let you increase your performance..

Try to purchase a Router either from the Selfcare Portal or from outside computer store... make sure its Gigabit WAN/LAN. For current & upcoming bandwidth optimization concerns, get at least an AC1200 Router.
At the same time, make sure your receiving devices (Eg. Laptop, Mobiles, Tablets etc) all are able to support at least Dual Band, better if it supports Wifi 802.11AC.

If you need Router placement advise for your unit, kindly buzz me.

Thanks.

Hi bro,

Thank you so much for your assistance.

I have figured out myself by trial and error. It is just beside a box where the fiber comes in

Anyway, Thank you again

hi guys. i have a question. i checked for coverage from time's website. it appears that my area has a time dot in it. My area has no tall buildings, mostly landed and it is not a housing area. However i realise, unlike other Time dots, the one in my area is not clickable and nothing shows even after pointing cursor to it. So i want to ask whether Time is available in my area.

Location: Amoy Lane, 10050 Georgetown , Penang. 

Thanks in advance!
