Still waiting for a speedtest from overseas servers... anyone? I seriously doubt that Time has the international link bandwidth to give a 100mbps subscriber 100mbps to, say, US. Let alone 500mbps subscribers...

Mind to share which torrent file you are trying to download? I can test for you with my connection if you want.

Oops! Missed that.

So it looks like 200-300+ mbps to the US at introduction. Once more subscribers jump in, that goes down. So the most bang for buck right now is the 300mbps plan, in the future it will be the 100mbps plan.

Even if it is just 100Mbps, it is still cheaper than UniFi laugh.gif

Wow! It's like I'm psychic!

Right after I mentioned yesterday about overcapping ports so as to be able to underpromise and overdeliver, it seems that TIME overcapped my father-in-law's  100Mbps package.

It is sustaining around 108Mbps via LAN at the moment, and using the equipment provided, as well.

That said, I probably shouldn't be too surprised. I've been told that back when the packages were 4/8/15Mbps, TIME were frequently capping the ports at 5/10/20Mbps, at least here in the PJ area.

Not too surprised for me, my 500 Mbps line always can get > 550 Mbps download speed, good guy TIME notworthy.gif

Any gamers here can give comments on time net? Is the line more stable than unifi?

Can you specify which particular games? Some online games servers are hosted in US region, so the latency is higher than those hosted in Asia.

If you are talking about Dota 2/CS:GO, then you can check here.

Dota 2 and CS:GO were performing very badly (high latency and packet loss, you can check UniFi thread) since last month due to the broken undersea cable on UniFi, no issue on TIME Fibre so far.

Hi All, TIME currently offer their service in my condo.
Do you think its better to switch from my current ISP (Symph*net) to TIME.

I read in this forum, some of you subscribe for 100Mbps but only get 30 - 40 Mbps
Is it TIME have a stable connectivity?

Thank you guys for the reply
*
I believe those who are getting 30 - 40Mbps have carried out the testing on WiFi instead of LAN, WiFi is prone to interference/obstacle/device you are using/router etc, I am pretty sure you will get full 100Mbps on LAN cable if there is no issue on TIME Fiber side, if you are really stuck at 30 - 40Mbps, you can ask for help from jj or yeap (TIME Fiber distributors), they can help you on this.

I am on 500Mbps package, always get more than 500Mbps (off and on-peak), latency and speed to overseas' servers are quite decent too thumbsup.gif

Switching to TIME is a no brainer, it is much cheaper than other ISP and even if you really get 30 - 40Mbps only, you are still well ahead of other ISP, RM 149 for 30 - 40Mbps is not bad afterall in Malaysia (just make a comparison with UniFi and Maxis Fiber's pricing then you will know) laugh.gif

Agreed. But even on ethernet connection, I never able to get real speed (not the speedtest). Usually just around 4-5MB/s only. With my ethernet card, at least 10MB/s shouldn't be a problem. I cannot complain to Time CS because the speedtest can reach 90Mbps+. But I've tried download from multiple servers, same result.

It would be nice if someone could give me some link that they themselves able to get download speed more than 10MB/s.

And another thing is, new subscription for 300Mbps get DLink router for RM189. But mine, for RM179, only given crappy ZTE router. My subscription start on 13 March, if not mistaken. If I wait for a few days until they revised the package, I could get better DLink router for RM10 more.  dry.gif

Hi everyone.

I'm new to TIME internet and it would be much appreciated if someone could help me clarify something.

I've contacted one of the agents and they say that they will require to drill a small hole at the entrance. I am a bit lost / mislead about the drilling hole at the entrance part. Does it mean that the fiber wire will be directly exposed in my home or something like that?

Would be much appreciated that if there are some photos to help me understand easier.

Thanks all.

I think they will cover it back with cement after they planted the fiber inside the wall.

Sorry for coming up as a noob, but can u guide me on how to reset the router ?

Thanks in advance .

Log into your router, then find Factory Reset/Restore to Default Settings option (I don't have the exact router so I don't know the exact directory but all routers have this option), make sure you have the PPPOE username and password (usually written on the installation paper) and setup the router by inserting the details in Create New PPPOE connection, after this setup your WiFi (SSID and password) and you are good to go.

I rarely see my torrent go up 2mb/s download. Even with hundreds of seeders. :/ Is there any settings need to be done on the client first ?
Steam download is great.
*
Steam download is direct download at which the contents are directly delivered by Valve's dedicated servers located in Singapore, that's why it is fast.

Torrent is using peer-to-peer (P2P) protocol, your speed is depend on seeders' upload speed, if the seeder put a limit on his/her upload speed in the torrent client settings then you won't get a good download speed, torrent is very subjective, this is because not everyone is having fast upload speed or symmetrical upload speed like we do, there are many hit and run cases (stop seeding after finish the download at which the seeding ratio isn't an important factor on public tracker), private trackers are much better for fast download since you need to maintain a certain level of seeding ratio in order to keep using their service.

I am downloading F1 race videos now and is able to get over 30MB/s, I don't limit my upload speed since I have plenty to share, hopefully it can cover those hit and run cases or those who are on limited upload speed/data cap plan etc.
