QUOTE(y561994 @ May 17 2017, 05:21 PM) Wow, would the coil of cable be unsightly outside the house? In my taman i usually see the installer coil the cable on the pole below the white fiber termination point. have u requested FTB from the installer? TM trying to cut cost now hmmm... it would be difficult if cable breaks and need repair. All the installation guides mention abt Entry Wall Box / Fiber Termination Box(FTB), but installer said no more using those. Yes the coil of black fiber is unsightly. |

QUOTE(y561994 @ May 17 2017, 10:07 PM) 1. Fiber cable coming from green Fiber Termination Point (on the ground) or white Fiber Termination Point (on the pole). Depends on ur location. 2. Fiber cable will terminate at a white Fiber Termination Box (FTB) outside of ur house. 3. Another internal fiber cable will continue from FTB to the Fiber Wall Socket (FWS) inside ur house. 4. One more thinner fiber cable will continue from FWS to the Broadband Termination Unit (BTU) (aka modem for ADSL users). 5. Phone will connect to the BTU with RJ11 cable for making calls. Residential Gateway (RG) (aka router) will connect to the BTU via RJ45. 6. Hypptv box (unavailable for Unfi Lite users) and ur PC/NAS/TV and stuff will connect to the RG. Note: TM is not providing FTB anymore so the fiber cable from FIber Termination Point will go straight into the house and to the FWS.Fiber Termination Point (on the ground): http://s1115.photobucket.com/user/gunblade...Unifi1.jpg.htmlFiber Termination Point (on the pole): http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84/mx007/DSC00549.jpgFTB: https://forum.lowyat.net/uploads/attach-16/...-1294450521.jpgFWS: http://i.imgur.com/jKD7B9u.jpgAll images taken from the web. So confirm TM is not providing FTB anymore? Then don't need to complain to TM. This post has been edited by MGM: May 18 2017, 02:16 AM |

QUOTE(y561994 @ May 18 2017, 12:30 PM) Having 2 separate accounts is the worst thing ever. Does it mean 2 mytm account == 2 email addresses?  And im retaining my existing landline number for RM1. Will there be 2 separate bills? One RM1 bill and one Unifi bill delivered separately? Similar to my case, 1 mytm account == 1 email, n most likely two bills (yet to confirm). |

QUOTE(totally_skint @ May 18 2017, 01:17 PM) So, which cable are we getting free and at what length? How much do they charge for extra length? QUOTE(monkeybeh @ May 18 2017, 01:24 PM) QUOTE(y561994 @ May 18 2017, 01:30 PM) Outside fiber cable always free unless u want do underground when u got pole. Inside house free 50m rj45/rj11, RM5 per meter if exceed the free 50m. But most installers will try all means to charge u unless it is a simple setup with all equipment placed at the same location. Print out a copy of the installation guide n show it to the installer upon dispute. This post has been edited by MGM: May 18 2017, 01:35 PM |

QUOTE(westlife @ May 18 2017, 01:42 PM) without the FTB, i think next time want to change location of the wifi router, maybe more troublesome rite? maybe need to relay cable all the from the distribution point? Can always reroute your internal LAN cable if u want to change router's location, but nowadays there are many gadgets like homeplug, repeater to widen the wifi coverage. |
