Guys, for a long while I waited for unifi to be available for my home due to no port.

Suddenly this week I received confirmation by email, call, SMS that installer gonna come tomorrow. How come my house suddenly can have port when none of my neighbours moved or cancelled.

I'm worried that suddenly tomorrow they come then say, No Port. sleep.gif. Is this a normal thing they managed to add an additional port just for my house?

Now 50-50 rate. There's issue at DP. Link keeps on dropping. Hopefully it will be sorted soon. Anyway, I didn't sign off yet.

First time installed unifi yesterday. The connection and account was activated but working for 1 hr only. Later the unit auth status light kept on blinking until today.  Link light is stable.

Call 100 and received message that restoration process is in progress and might be delayed... they better give me good explanation as to why this happen to some new subscriber... vmad.gif

The auth and link light should be always on in order to use unifi even though u dun turn on the router, is that correct?

Same case happened to me bro. Mine installed few hrs ago. I tried again OK, then hilang again. They said some fresh never used before port at DP got connection issue.

Mind to share what brand of the homeplug you are using? Do u connect those homeplug into same phase of power socket?
My router is a single band, if I use dual band home plug, will I able to get 2.4ghz & 5ghz?
Mind to share what did you do to stable the connection?
*
I didn't do anything except changing to Asus AC55UHP. They did some cable fixes at the DP tho. Probably that's what fixed my blinking Auth issue

How much internet does Kodi/HyppTv sucks? Is it possible to watch youtube on 2 ipad with 1080p or 720p while also kodi running with 1080p video too.
On 30Mbps

Thats kinda very intensive but possible. You need a good router to do routing and data handling of those. If single pc, stock router can handle well

Guys since unifi subs were given with hypptv anywhere account, we can install the app on any tvbox and view right? Just the downside, the streaming is not on vlan, so instead of using dedicated 8mbps vlan connection, it will utilize the bandwidth of our main connection eg 30mbps or 10mbps etc

Correct me if I'm wrong please. Just looking into the possibility of not requiring to use stock stb and just go fully wifi without relying on using homeplugs and etc

Is there any way to change IPTV Lan4 for general use? Not using IPTV at all.
Btw I'm on Asus RT-AC87U router.

I believe if you're on Asus, u picked unifi preset to auto bind LAN4 for IPTV right. So try to change to a different preset so it no longer tag to LAN4 for IPTV

Yup 20mhz bandwidth, these days too crowded to set 40mhz

If you put it as 20mhz, it has higher tendency to select channel 1. I can only guess that this is based on router's firmware algorithm. Since have manually scanned, use manual channel selection then instead of auto.

last time when advance 30 first comes out, it is 5Mbps upload speed only, after that it is upgraded to 10Mbps upload speed now.

actually for online gaming, 5Mbps is more than sufficient.

in fact, disregard the total bandwidth, if a connection is stable, 5Mbps or 10Mbps also can be sufficient for normal users who just do normal browsing, or streaming some full HD YouTube video.

of course for expert users, no one will find bandwidth too much, the more the merrier. but to general bolehland ppl, price is actually the highest priority, they would rather get a 'ok' speed, such as 5Mbps or 10Mbps but paying a lowest subscription monthly as possible. even rm10 difference monthly for double or triple speed, if they are the 'normal' or 'casual' Internet users, they may opt not to upgrade.

Example such as my parent's Neighbour, they are paying rm140 for streamyx 4Mbps with a low 512Kbps upload speed, I told them they can actually pay rm39 extra to get a fibre connection which is a lot faster and can get enjoy 50Mbps upgrade also. They said no need as they are happy with the current speed for normal YouTube streaming etc instead of paying the extra for a better technology.
*
It is more of the hassle to go through to migrate from streamyx to unifi. Im a 3 weeks user of unifi and glad the process went quite smoothly despite got issue of no port for about 2-3months hanging and ping pong. I would say if no walls needs to be drilled or need to wait for installer and so on as if it was super seamless, everyone will surely upgrade to 30mbps if given that they house is available for installation

Yesterday check got Outstanding Bill. Probably it detected my old steamyx which I had just terminated and paid bill to clear it off.

Today check eligible 30 to 50mbps. Ftth landed. Activated Dec 16 2016. Hopefully asus55uhp can do well on wifi for new 50mbps soon. So far getting great performance
