I read some of the positive and some of the negative. The overall rating is positive, though.

Personally, Time Fibre has been stable, speedy, and it has enabled me to move away from money-sucking services like Astro. No regrets - I've been on Time Fibre since late 2013 or 2014 (I forget).

Note - I don't use the stock router supplied by Time or Time's own DNS servers.

Here below rm300.

Penang user here, connection/speed ok. Looks like an issue down in Klang Valley? Anyone called CS?

How does the TP-Link compare to the Tenda AC1900 wireless router? Seems to be around same price range.

Dunno how good or stable Tenda firmware is but on paper the Tenda has better processor and more memory.

Have a few friends using Tenda but heard no complaints from them so far.

Asus RT-AC68U user here. Powerful, stable, strong wifi but expensive (in my opinion).

Ha ha. When I bought the ac68u, I didn't know about Tenda.

I had used TP-Link routers and powerline kits before. Also good and prices are more reasonable but tbh, I'm now an Asus fan.

Nice. Positive user feedback

I am thinking now about moving up to Ubiquiti or MicroTik solutions..

Oh you just want to know if it's router or line issue? Connect a PC straight to the GPON and login via PPPoE on your PC, to test the internet speed.

Ooh maybe that's why it's cheaper..

1. Direct (wired) to ONU gives you full speed?
2. Poor speed on both 2.4GHz wifi-N and 5.0GHz wifi-N/AC networks?
3. Poor speed with 3 different wifi routers?
4. Poor speed on all your wifi clients (i.e. smartphone, laptop, tablet)?
5. Wifi speed tests performed just beside the router?
6. Results are from internet speedtest against a KL server?

Doesn't seem to indicate an ONU problem. Something wrong with the way you configure your wireless settings on router, maybe.

Or the LAN cable between ONU and wifi router.

What's the URL for this countdown notice? Don't see it when I open http://www.time.com.my/

Nothing in my email inbox from Time also. Maybe this is some kind of limited upgrade offer

Found the email in my spam folder ha ha.

Takes me to this URL = http://www.time.com.my/edm/5to/

500Mbps Turns One, maybe it just means 500Mbps plan's 1st anniversary? I forget how long Time has been offering this plan

We'll know soon enough

I prefer wired access points and powerline adapters to repeaters because wireless repeaters technically halve the available wifi bandwidth. One half to talk to the parent router and the other half to repeat to the client.

With slow broadband the effect is probably not very noticeable but once you get up to hundreds of megabits the degradation will be significant.

I read that some newer mesh router equipment have a dedicated band and radio for inter-mesh node connections which sounds like a good thing.

Anyway i am still happy with my dual band ac68u. It blasts powerful 2.4 and 5ghz wifi all over my 1.2k sqf condo plus even to the lift lobby 15-20m outside my home.

Same for me. At least it was surprising how underwhelming the 'surprise' was.

Need special cable ka? All my cat 5e cables can get me about 480-500 mbps.

I thought any cat5e cable will be ok. Maybe you can consider this one.
