While the TM technician in my house in this morning, I asked him about the news that VIP5 free upgrade to 10Mbps without additional charges. He said it is randomly select customer to get the upgrade, primary for those already completed their 24-months contract will be selected.  ohmy.gif 
Is this true for those already received free upgrade already completed their contract? hmm.gif

My contract not yet finished  sad.gif , will hope to get free upgrade to 10Mbps after end of this year. smile.gif

Yeah. My parents place contract expired long ago. Been using for nearly 4 years with prompt payment.

Yes, so far those received already a subscriber for more than 24 months and with no payment issue. Yet, still selected and not all will get even if you fulfill both criteria.

Yup... selected customer. rclxub.gif doh.gif

Hope TM change their policy and give out free upgrade for those already completed 24-months contract and no issue with payment, cross my finger~ smile.gif

Hey guys,

My parents just applied 100mbps unifi and they're using wifi since the TV is in the area of dining table on the 2nd floor and their room in first floor. (they're not strong enuff to walk up stairs)

Run some tests and found out that they've been using 10-20% of the speed from their wifi. Even after the unifi guy came and switch it to the "further channel" of the wifi (his words not mine).

So my question is what kind of affordable router should I go for?


ps: my mom hates messy cable lying around the floor (she always trip on it) , is why they use wifi

You missed the WS880 deal for RM199. Still got thread here someone wanna sell for higher price though. Unfortunately if you really need strong connection can't really go for 'affordable' router.

Alternative is to buy a simple router and put it near to them by using a very long LAN cable (go through the corners so that not in the way).

The Asus RT-AC55UHP is a good choice if your mom is fine with the big antennas. It is not too expensive and it supports Wireless AC which is crucial to achieve the full performance if your devices support Wireless AC as well.

Hi guys, appreciate some advice if possible. Here's the situation;

1) Upgraded to 30MB unifi but rarely get 20mb. Mostly 10-15mb only on wifi.
2) Staying in small apartment (850sqf). Router is located in living room while my room is just behind the living room wall - I dont close my door at all.
3) My router sometimes restart by itself and sometimes internet connection is very slow (talking bout dload speed of 100kpbs) - I have to restart my modem/router to solve this on daily basis.
4) Called unifi technical team and they attend twice but problem recurring again after few days. One of the technician advise me to get a better router as the set that I'm using is more than 3 years old already.

My question is, what should I get to a good 30mb connection in my room? I'm using a pc with a tp-link wifi adapter connected to it in my room.

Been reading a few post and few member mentioned about Asus RT-n66u as a router replacement. Is this a good solution? My budget is around Rm700-Rm1000 to fix this issue if possible.

Many thanks in advance.

Yup, IPv4 is basically run out in Asia Pacific.

And you should enable IPv6 on your network if available (in the case of TM, yes)

However, unless you have issues accessing IPv6 enabled networks such as Facebook & Google, you should just use it. I don't have any issues with it unlike some forumers have that.

In that case, then you may want to disable it as suggested.

Bro, u r using 1 power line to extend too much power... sometimes share too much electricity with only 1 power socket can cause a lot issue.. Please, for ur own good and other people good, try get electric technician to help you do more power socket from fuse hub to the place you prefered, safety first.

Anyway if you just upgraded to 30mbps, and contract restarted with 2 years contract, then you can call TM to get DIR-850L router replacement, just try ur luck. If really can't then you can consider Asus RT-N12HP, which is considered best within budget. But remember if your area is too congested with a lot wireless, den you better consider AC router, like D-Link DIR-850L which is provided by TM.

Sorry, I dont have any Lan cable for testing. Have to buy quite a long cable to test it from my pc to the living room. Think I should buy the Lan cable to test first? Or just skip and get a new router?

Feel you but at this moment, this is the only option that I have. Phone line is next to the socket and hiring another technician seems like a messy paperwork for my condo mgmt. Anyway, I'm using a plug in circuit breaker so it should be ok to stop any electricity issue.

Yes, just upgraded to 30mb with a renewed 2 years contract around 1-2 month ago. Thanks for the recommendation of DIR-850L router. WIll also have a look at Asus RT-N12HP.

All in all, from your point of view, would replacing a new router solve my issue?

U should try replace and see whether problem solved not...

If still same issue, try use standalone power socket for the router and test again.
