Anyone with old router (supplied by TM) already got turbo-ed?
Regardless of whether you replaced the router on your own.

no worries, that is wifi router issue. you need to use ethernet or buy a new wifi router

test with new CAT-5e/CAT-6 cable,
also check router and network adapter settings.

How to check and see got contract with tm?

U may not able to get pass 300mbps even with ac86u

ya, maybe TM didnt expect maxis will come so low package

yup, I will stick to TM for my gaming coz I have PS4 and I play dota2/pubg so I need very low ping for it

Any of the high-end routers, from TP-Link or Asus. D-Link is not that good unfortunately.

Just get the Asus RT-AC86U or the TP-Link C3150 v2, if you have that many devices. You should have change a long time ago.

Change your router to something better. Asus or the high end TP-Link router.

Nope, RT-AC86U won’t be able to go up to 750 on 2.4GHz. It is not possible, with BGN. The highest N can go with 4 streams is 600Mbps, and that is in lab conditions. Please don’t have unreasonable expectations. You can only get the turbo speeds on 5GHz AC band, regardless of routers.

Did you try wired connection? If you did, there could be something wrong with the settings on your router or device. Change to a different router, to test.

By using a wired connection directly to your router. Get a new wireless receiver that supports 5GHz AC, and spend more money to upgrade your router to something like the Tp-Link Archer C7 v4 at least.

Actually a Mikrotik router is enough. Is much affordable than other routers

Thanks very much! You're more helpful than TM staff.

Ok.
How much is AC86U being sold here in Malaysia? RM1000?

I agree, but you need to configure it yourself for the most optimum settings, and most users are not that network-savvy.

Most of the people here are definitely more helpful

So you got your 500Mbps now?

haha, I'm going to become Anti-TM soon if kept ignored me...

Depends on the seller and where you buy it from. If you want Asus Malaysia warranty, it will be more expensive. If you are fine with China warranty, look for a seller in Lazada that sells it or go directly to Taobao to get it.

MU-MIMO may improve or make worse your WiFi speeds depending on your router and devices. SNB - MU-MIMO.

750Mbps is using Broadcom NitroQAM. Your devices have to have a Broadcom chip with NitroQAM and 3 streams to get this speed else your max speed will likely be 300Mbps on 2.4GHz with typical 2 stream devices.

Take note that typically your Wi-Fi actual throughput will be about half the link speed shown on your devices due to overhead and other factors.

u have to look at the router specs..

I use cable connect to my desktop.. my wifi speeds are 200-600mbps depends on which band i'm in

Are there any issues with streaming via TV box on Maxis?

I now just notice that DIR850L is getting " exhausting" nowadays But RT-AC86U is too expensive for me . I saw around RM900 at Lazada while the RT-AC68U is around RM600 -RM700. My budget is around RM400-RM500 . So im dilemma in choosing any router.

How about Asus RT-AC1300UHP?
