hello guys, sorry if this post at wrong place.

Just a quick question, i am planning to do conceal wiring for unifi (for future) since my area still dont have service. (landed house)
Below are the questions:-
1. Entry wall = house outside wall? Yes
2. Where is the FWS normally placed? outside wall or near BTU? Near BTU
3. What type of cable used between Entry Wall to FWS? Optic Fibre
4. What type of cable used between FWS to BTU?? Optic Fibre
5. Are all the cabling after BTU uses RJ45? (except BTU to phone which is RJ12) Yes. Phone is RJ11

Thanks.

thanks kkm for the quick respond. Means for preparation, i just need to ensure i laid the fibre-optic cable from outside wall (can i pick where i want it to be??) to the location i plan to place my BTU?

Not too sure how you would pre-install the fibre from outside wall to the wall socket, that's normally done by the TM installer. And location would have to be accessible from the nearest TM pole (if your house is served by over head poles).

Maybe another socket at the outside wall location so the installer can terminate the TM fibre there. But would have to be protected from the weather... Maybe other users here can comment on the fibre pre-installation part...

Exactly, it's the works for professional (laying the fiber optic cable). The perfect layout would be one continuous optic cable from the white box on the TM post to the termination socket inside the house. Too many interruptions will affect the optic cable data carrying property. The wisest thing to do now is the prepare a pre-drilled wall hole, a very small one (straw size should suffice) for future fiber optic passage. This hole should be easily be covered till then.

This is the way the TM installer normally does it, run the fibre from the pole into the house, maybe through the ceiling and then drop to the termination point and then terminate to the wall socket. All one continuous pull.

so people have only received upgrades from 30-50 but not 50-100?

wondering if they filter by speed or by area.

And so far haven't heard VIP20 to 50...

How to know if it's FTTH, VDSL or ADSL connection I'm currently on (Unifi 30Mbps)? I try googling can't find proper explanation or maybe the explanation beyond my understanding
*
If you're on Unifi 30mbps, then you're not on ADSL (Streamyx) for sure. If you're in a high rise building, then it's most likely VDSL. If in a landed property with your line feeding from a pole or pit outside your house, then you're on FTTH.

ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) and VDSL (Very high bit rate Digital Subscriber Line) both provide broadband services by "piggy-backing" on a normal copper phone line, so the limited speeds.

FTTH is Fibre To The Home, which brings broadband to your home via full speed optical fibre.

How long a piece? Lowyat should have, either All IT or the networking shops on the 2nd or 3rd floors.

Totally blur about it..All need to know is it good as AC1900 routers.

Is alternative to Asus 68U router.
*
And if you say you are totally blur, the Mikrotik routers may not be for you. The user interface is not as friendly as the Asus, TPLink or other consumer type routers, not so easy to understand or to set up.

I had a RB951G-2HnD, sold it and bought an Asus 68AC. Very happy with it. Although it's pretty expensive now...

what's the purpose increased credit limit? if i didn't pay on time, straight away cut my line.

now shop lot the water deposit also increase to around RM 2xx doh.gif now government look like beggar.

before the upgrade (just few days ago) i already received next month bill confirm is not RM 249!
*
Although the increased limit is "suspicious", it is not the same as increasing your deposit. You don't actually pay anything more.
