Congratulations on your toy!

I thought there are 4 ports on the 850L with port 4 for HypTV. Not using the TV and use it as a normal LAN port?

Using Unifi 30?

Possible to get the average Mbps for each of the PC and mobile users from the router? Just curious on the individual speed especially on the mobile.

Thanks.

My unqualified 2 cents here ...

Govt has allocated RMx billion in the budget to improve broadband in 2016. So can expect some improvement to the infrastructure for higher speed and some promotion to get more to ride on them.

Yes, this improvement-promotion pattern will repeat every x years and one can be waiting for ever if one does not get in. Ha.

My personal strategy is not to aim for the highest speed package as that will carry with it some hidden cost premium. Aim for the 2nd or 3rd highest speed if they are sufficient for your use.

Can't wait for my Unifi 30! A big jump for me from 8 to 30! Ha.

Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for the useful tip. Will see if I need 4th LAN port or not.

My wife wants to watch the chinese shows in HyTV.

Some good ones for me like Aust 1+, CNewAsia etc.

Thanks!

Got a call from TM to confirm their installation team coming next week.

Finally. Hope that with Unifi 30, everyone in my family (currently on 8 Mbps) can feel the faster speed, consistency, a lot less buffering, etc.

First time using fiber optic on the net! Sounds like a kid opening Christmas present! Ha.

I asked about keeping the old number. They said need to pay some RM20/month (if I remember correctly).

For RM240 per year, I think I better let it go and start using the new number. Ha.

How do you find your new unifi 30? As expected, better or worse?

BAGUS!

What is this special package called? The TM lady told me I have to pay RM20(?) to keep my old number and she did say about using that for incoming calls and use the new phone for outgoing due to the free calls.

They will come tomorrow to install Unifi here. If I called TM, they will tell me the same thing as what the previous TM lady told me.

Help, help!

Got my Unifi 30 yesterday. Not a smooth flow. Disappointed with TM's work practice with multiple unifi installers calling me to book the installation time. Later the installer did not come on time. Those who took time off from work for installation will be really pissed off. Ha.

When they came, it went smoothly. Impressed with their quality of work except a 2 by 3 inches wall cement piece came off on the outside wall as they used the hammering drill to drill the small hole. Should not use the hammering mode though slower with normal drilling.

I got the DL 850L. So far, happy with it. Can feel the faster browsing when turning pages on The Star, faster response when going from one menu to the sub menu in Kodi, watched Game of Thrones (season 2) 1080p without buffering (yes, I am a few years behind on this show), wife's HP browsing is faster now using the higher dual wifi speed on 850L.

Some questions:

AA
on the BTU, port 1 goes to 850L, 3 unused ports. OK to use these 3 LAN ports? One will say just plug it in and see. But I prefer to check first. Or are they utilised by the router?

BB
2 phone ports. Without any phone cable plugged it, tel 1 light is on. Does that mean only tel 1 is configured and can be used? Just plug in tel 2 and see! Ha.

CC
For the free iflix & viu for new Unifi ac, these do not sit inside HypTV right? Asked the installer, he does not know.

DD
Saw on the Service Acceptance Form today that they stated Business Registration. Should be for home use only. If no complication later (upgrade etc), I will just leave it. Signed that without reading the whole 3 pages. Tip for future friends who will be installing Unifi, read the 3 pages forms BEFORE they ask you to sign! Ha.

Cheerio.


P/S Learnt from the installer that the F Optic cable is 2 cores, ie 2 optic lines in 1 cable. Only 1 core is used. Maybe the 2nd core is used if they have problem with the first one or for future parallel usage? Like the multi CPU trend now?

Thanks!

Now makes sense on my AA & BB. The cable is actually 3 cores (installer says 2 cores though I can see 3 separate colored tubings inside).

Tried tel 2 port. Cannot use it.

iflix and vui are outside HypTV, need to register etc etc. Looks like Netflix which I have tried and I don't really like it.

Cheerio.

No. Why?

They did the cutting.

Interesting. I thought I read from somewhere that 1 core is for both downloading and uploading. I was reading that as I wanted to know whether uploading "eats" up your Mbps or not.

May be new tech is changing that now with dedicated core for each. That will be good.

Cheerio.

I think if marketing people call you, OK to upgrade without impacting your current contract. They will just restart your contract.

Only thing is, you will not get new eqpt (router, phone etc).

Call TM to find out more.

Thanks.

Good learning here.

My advice is to talk to your TM Point manager.

Manager because he/she has the authority to bend rules a bit to help customers. Other normal staff will just stick to the company's rules.

Good luck!

Tried to log into my new 850L. Manual says password is blank for initial log in. Tried that and it says "Invalid password. please try again".

Tried Admin, admin. No success.

Also checked with the installer who installed Unifi 30 for me. His 2 technician helped to set it up. He replied blank as the password.

Anyone with the same problem? And how to resolve this beside reset the router?

Thanks.

Many thanks.

Tried all and also upper case for Telekom etc

If this is DLink normal setup, I am very disappointed with their work practice. Manual says blank and user cannot log in. Since you found that in Google, looks like I am not the first one struggling with this.

Appreciate help from those who have walked through this and came out with a smiling face! Ha.

Thanks.

Many many thanks!

Yes, password is in the card. See the last one User password. What they say about the blank as the password in the manual is WRONG!

DLink should wake up and correct this error. Surely they are following DLINK forums and this problem has been raised numerous time!

DLink, your customer satisfaction from me took a sharp dip earlier today when I could not log in. Now I found it is the mistake in your manual, for ALL you FUTURE customers' sake, correct that!!!

Now I have 2 HypTV boxes. Beside keeping one as backup in case one fails, what can I do with it?

Install some apps to extend its use if that is possible?

Thanks.

The white one, got one last yr when I changed to streamyx 8 and 2nd one now when upgraded to Unifi 30.

Using DL 850L. 2 HypTV boxes possible?

Any other things we can try to make full use of the box?

Thanks.
