2) I seldom use phone call at home but still remain my old num ~ 1 min 20 cent
3) Installation i think will choose , the one over ceiling ~
10 Meter RM 60, when more than 10 Meter Each 1 Meter they charge RM10.
4) The operator who call me ask me nego to get cheaper installation from contractor to save up some money o.0.

Seems okay.. Yeah, negotiate directly with the contractor for lowest deal. You know your house and how best to route the cables. As for pricing for custom wiring, others can chip in.

OK. Thanks. Now just have to think of the wiring .
1) Becoz if i put my router at living room, i can use the smart TV box, then i have to purchase a wireless card for my desktop(In My room, Upstair).
Although the wiring come from ceiling i bet, it still need cover to conceal it.
2) if i put on my upstairs bed then can directly connect to my desktop. But it seems i wont be able to use the smart TV box.
(Not sure whether the smart TV box still can be use ,have wireless feature) Becoz my TV is in my living room only.

ask how yr neighbors do it.

some houses, the cable come from the house front to grdflr, some from the back to top flr.
that will determine how long the total cable run will be for where u want it to end with the BTU (modem) - the cost for u.

if your house is small, good chance wifi will cover nicely most places, incl yr pc upstairs.
but if it's large superlink 100x30ft... tough.

note the STB (unifitv box) will likely be in living room beside yr tv, will need ethernet connection; ethernet good for yr smart tv too.

if u place the router upstairs, u will then ask "how to do unifitv with wifi"

do not make the mistake of placing modem/router in a poor place only to struggle with bad wifi issues later.

I bought this for backup.

(Above item should able to solve unifitv issues giving the circumstances router is not beside the TV)

but will ask the contractor how the wiring output will look like before decided.
