unless you are going to upload a lot of stuff..

Asymmetrical bandwidth
TM’s current VIP Home Plans – VIP 5, VIP 10 and VIP 20 are having symmetrical bandwidth where you get the same upload speeds as your download speeds. So if you signed up for VIP 10, you get 10Mbps speeds for both download and uploads.

For the new 30Mbps and 50Mbps plans, the speeds are asymmetrical where its upload speeds are much slower than downloads. The new 30Mbps plan gets just 5Mbps for upload while its 50Mbps plan settles for 10Mbps. Is this a big deal? It all depends on your usage. For normal web browsing, video and music streaming, 30Mbps for download is a significant jump from 10Mbps and the lower upload speeds shouldn’t be much of an issue.

However if you upload a lot content especially Full HD or 4K videos, the 5Mbps upload speed would be a bottleneck. It will be the same story as well if plan on uploading huge files or doing video broadcast from your home. Despite a dip in upload speeds, the new Unifi plans are still offering unlimited quota until further notice.

BTW the real definition of symmetrical connection

you can upload data to the Internet, whilst downloading large files, without loss of bandwidth.

What I know is TM will be gradually decommission copper wire for area with Unifi coverage. Whether the letter is true or not it requires further confirmation.

most likely TM remove those hubb area that have both copper and fibre infrastructure especially highrise so TM can remove the ADSL and upgrade with VDSL

Dear Unifi User,
I'm using a TM unifi 50Mbps plans
I bought a wireless router not from TM and request reset password to use new (Asus Brand) wireless router,
I have reset twice,but still unable to use the new router.
below are the reference number.
Reference No : 1-16973609653
Reference No : 1-16975152008

Tmnet Support recommend me to buy wireless router from them instead then can solve the problem,but i refuse to buy from TM since i bought a new wireless router.
In the end i have no choice to use the TM wireless router (slow and always hang) with the new reset password then finally can access internet.

Previously i was using TP-Link wireless Router due to wear and tear then i replace a new Asus wireless Router, end up i using back the old TM wireless router and suffered.

Does anyone encounter the same issues same as me, kindly advice me how can use my new Asus wireless router without purchase new router from TM.

I'm so desperate about TM services ,if no choice i will cancel the plan .
