QUOTE(fruitie @ Mar 24 2018, 12:32 PM) What happened? Opt for the rm10 promo to double up the speed... But not just only the speed was double, the monthly fee DOUBLED too!! Went to TM point & call 100 for times, still keep charging the ridiculous price... Until I cancelled my auto debit, only this month start to get things straight!!! |

QUOTE(fruitie @ Mar 24 2018, 12:44 PM) I remember you were one of the lucky ones who was paying RM 159 for 50Mbps. So now RM 169 for 100Mbps?   |

QUOTE(stephantsen @ Mar 24 2018, 02:03 PM) complain to mcmc I swear to myself if this month they still repeat the same ridiculous charges, I will lodge complains to all relevant departments... But I think they look into my case seriously after I cancelled the direct debit. Lets monitor for few more months before I put it back into my auto debit list~ |

Guys, i've been quoted RM 6 per meter for new fiber cable for my unifi. From the outside unit to FTB. Extra rm4 per meter if the fiber wanted to be cover up.
So is RM10 per meter with cover. And 1 month warranty provided for the new cables... Just wanna ask is this price quoted reasonable? Is there other option such as using own contractor to do the cables? This post has been edited by cskean: Mar 29 2018, 12:04 PM |

Guys, need some suggestion here...
Yesterday TM contractor came and replace the fiber optic cable for my unifi and finally I'm able to use my unifi again... Before they leave, I've tested the speed using my smartphone via wifi, under 2.4g it reaches around 70-80mbps, and 5g it reaches 100mbps... That was sitting in front of my router though... But when I'm using my laptop on second floor, I run speed test from my laptop using 2.4g and the speed only runs around 20mbps max.... I'm staying in a 2sty house with about 2500sf built up... I did some study, if I opt for wifi range extender, it has to be on the same power point line as my router in order to get it done, right? What about if I buy another router and use it as an Access Point on second floor? If this is the better solution, any recommended AP or router that can fully optimize the Unifi 100mb speed on the entire 2nd floor? Suggestion & advice are much appreciated from expert here~ TQVM~ |

QUOTE(SilentVampire @ Mar 31 2018, 02:07 PM) 2.4GHz is full of interference and congestion. Use 5GHz. If you want to use AP, make sure it’s connected directly to the router via Ethernet and not wireless. Asus router are good to be used as AP in their AP mode. If you have any other questions, just read and research based on the threads given by bro AVFAN. I was about to ask this, Access Point must be connected via Ethernet cable only? Cannot be done over wifi?I went to consult one of my friend, he recommend me to relocate my router to a higher location and more towards the centre of my house in order to get a better signal range and speed. With this setup, I need to hang my router near to the ceiling and need to have a longer RJ45 cable. Any comment on this setup? I personally feel a bit not eye pleasant, but still acceptable if the outcome is good... Btw, I'm using the TP LINK AC1200 provided by TM, and it is sitting on the tv cabinet level... |

QUOTE(SilentVampire @ Mar 31 2018, 07:08 PM) You can but not recommended. Ethernet cable is better than wifi especially for your house. Lol, your friend is half right. Center of your house is right, but higher location is BS. You need to get a good router, and for your case, an enterprise router with multiple WIRED APs is much better than a single router. May I know which brand / model have the enterprise router with multiple WIRED APs?And how does the multiple wired APs would help in my situation? |

QUOTE(SilentVampire @ Apr 1 2018, 12:54 AM) Miktrotik or Ubiquiti, whichever you prefer. It will give you strong consistent wireless signal throughout your house. See here for an example from someone who did it with Ubiquiti in Australia, all of which equipment can be bought in Malaysia as well: https://www.troyhunt.com/ubiquiti-all-the-t...-my-dodgy-wifi/ QUOTE(AVFAN @ Apr 1 2018, 01:36 AM) bro, his house is not so big... fairly typical 2 storey, 2500sqft. Thanks for the info guys. No harm to learn something new. Just wondering how much would it cost for this kind of setup compare to normal one?and only 100mbps. do u think it is worth all that hassle and $ for his situation? |

QUOTE(SilentVampire @ Apr 1 2018, 01:10 PM) Very expensive. For you, one good router, and one wired AP, or powerline, or extender as a last resort, would be enough. Disregard my previous advice. I would recommend the TP-Link C3150v2 for you, and a wired AP, poweline, or extender, up to you. Alright, might not need it now...Sorry to ask but what is a powerline? I kinda understand AP and extender. But this powerline, I have no idea how does the thing works... Mind to enlighten me a bit? Btw, if I change my current TP Link Ac1200 to C3150 v2, and maintain back the current location for my router (which is on top of my tv cabinet in the living hall), will it enhance the wifi range & speed in 2.4G & 5G? I'm looking at improvement at my 2nd floor family area & 2 rooms at the rear part (above the kitchen area)... |

QUOTE(AVFAN @ Apr 1 2018, 02:14 PM) Where yr router is, its fine for all areas, except possibly the furthest room above kitchen. Some blind spots in that room, even with the best router 5ghz, u may get just 30-40mbps. But that is fine for most purposes. Just no good if want to torrent max speed. Other areas, u get 80-90mbps with 5ghz. Dun waste money on other things, just spend it all on ONE good router. QUOTE(SilentVampire @ Apr 1 2018, 02:25 PM) See here: https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/wi-fi-extende...reless-signals/ TQVM for all the precious advice & opinion...Bro, just get the TP-Link C3150 v2 for now and don’t get anything else. It will be enough to boost your range and speed. You don’t have to change the current location of your router. I am using that particular router and it is very good, with excellent coverage and stability. See here for a great review from bro Jjuggler about this router: https://techmemasta.wordpress.com/2018/03/1...3150-v2-review/ Will hunt around for the best deal~ |

QUOTE(SilentVampire @ Apr 1 2018, 02:38 PM) This seller is good and I have bought many times from him: https://shopee.com.my/TP-LINK-Archer-C3150-...80984.110665528 Alright, will look into it... Thx for the recommendation~QUOTE(birain @ Apr 1 2018, 04:42 PM) upgrade your laptop hardware, network card....or completely buy a new one that have the latest specs that support 5ghz I'm waiting for the 8th gen cpu then only see which one to get...The thing is my current wifi signal & range is not fully covered, so i think even if I get a new laptop with 5G, also wont make much different~ |
