Probably coming out next year once they've got the whole turbo process under control lol.

Someone should put up an advisory somewhere for torrenting lol.

Disable utp in your torrent client for maximum speed. It doesn't work as intended and is counterproductive in current times.

Padan mukak.

For decades they were sucking on the government teat and offering the rakyat a pittance with regards to their offerings, delaying cheap Internet proliferation throughout the country with excuse after excuse, abusing the monopoly given to them and blocking any attempts to implement local loop unbundling which would have allowed other ISPs to use their last mile access to offer their own competitive offerings, which was especially prevalent during the DSL Streamyx era.

New government comes in and they're exposed for the charlatans that they are. Two thumbs up to Gobind Singh.

They could always break TM into two seperate companies. One company to handle Fiber/Copper wholesaling and the other to manage their own Internet offerings. Open up the last mile fiber/copper completely. But they won't because unlike other developed nations we don't have anti trust laws that would necessitate such a measure lol.

Just like other countries did with their own primary telecommunications outfits to prevent monopoly.

In the US, Bell got broken apart.

In Australia, Telstra is about to be broken up..

In that case go right ahead! You'll always have the option to upgrade to a faster packaged when they're maybe introduced next year and you upgraded your devices to support a higher speed. You get to enjoy a lower monthly cost as well.

MEGA was born after Megaupload was taken down by the same founder in New Zealand.

If i were in your position i would either:-

a) Demand a price reduction for the 30mbps plan. (30Mbps turboed to 300 Mbps for RM179 is still a ripoff considering the fact that there are those on the RM 139 bonanza plans that can get turboed to 300 right now)

b) Downgrade to RM 129/100Mbps right away. I did this and got it the same day within hours. Was on a Rm139/30Mbps plan before this.

You can't configure the BTU, but you can check whether or not the port is properly set to 1Gbps by plugging your LAN cable from your PC Network Card (that you know supports Gigabit Ethernet), into the 1st LAN port of the BTU.

The head to your Network Adapter's properties panel and check to see what speed your Network Card is connected at to the BTU. If 1 Gbps then it is properly configured.

Right there with you, the biggest boosts i felt was the initial move from

1) Dial up modem TMNUT 1515 56.6kbps to Streamyx 4Mb ADSL - no longer did you have to wait for graphics and videos on sites to load. Pages pop up instantaneously. Biggest QoL upgrade ever to this day.

2) Streamyx 4Mbps ADSL to Unifi 30 Mbps - This was quite insane since the the upload speed went up 20x from 512kbps to 10 Mbps, so no longer would the internet hang if one of the many android devices in the house did the daily offsite backup to Google servers.

From 30 -> 100 Mbps didn't really feel that much different. Only noticeable in torrents and 1440p/4k youtube.

Speed test/ping to US/EU servers seems normal at the moment, even without VPN:-

Tulsa, Oklahoma, US



London, UK

Disabling UTP will make traffic more congested on your network, and if your router or computer's network card cannot take it, will cause frequent disconnections. In your case it may better to enable it to control the traffic in your network.

Try with and without it to confirm that UTP is the cause.

Go for 100mbps/rm129 right now. Turboed 300 for 179 aint worth it anyway.

The TMPoint at Uptown (Damansara Utama, not that far away from Bandar Utama) can handle downgrades and terminations. It's a fully empowered TMPoint.

Only thing crappy bout that place is the chronic lack of parking space so you have to go with a partner to drop off. Otherwise you're forced to park at Starling Mall and walk a bit.

Also come early. 9am if possible, since it's always full of people. I swear TM is making it more and more difficult to downgrade/terminate plans.

Dayum, you hit the motherlode of turbos mate.

Most people on the bonanza plan who subscribed in 2018 itself will never see turbo until next year at the earliest, according to the TMPoint person I spoke to when I first applied for the Unifi 30M/RM139 Bonanza Package in July 2018.

This was in fact one of the reasons why I downgraded to 100M/RM129 in September the first opportunity I got. Didn't wanna pay extra for something I wasn't sure I was gonna get.

This is how it should be for users on supported equipment. Got mine within hours of changing my plan to RM129/100M too.

Anyone else on UNIFI experiencing completely borked connection quality to Australia this past few days?

Nearly a week ago it was pretty damn good (full 100/50 D/U and Low ping):-



Today its quite horrible:-



Both speedtests were done using the Telstra Perth server. I would appreciate it if others can replicate the tests, thanks.

Nothing really but it usually represents the best case scenario for Australian connections amongst all the speedtest servers i've tested in the past with regards to ping.

I play WoW on the ozzie realms so this is kinda relevant to me lol.

But as you can see that ping is not normal..

The ping to Perth is usually sub 100 ms.

200ms is like the ping to US.

Look at my sig for the typical ping to Perth before this, 62 ms without the use of VPN or tunneling tech.

I think the routing to Australia is a bit messed up at the moment.

CentOS Linux distro for testing

Guaranteed to fully saturate your line and 100% legit. If you don't get full speed on this torrent something is wrong on your end.

Be sure to disable any form of uTP or rate limiting on your torrent client, especially if you're turboed to ensure full speed.

Great article. 100Mbps is stupidly fast for most people already, even if you need to download multiple GB files.

The ability to download 40+ GB and upload 20+ GB per hour is no joke. In one day you can nearly grab 1TB off the net.

How many people have multiple TB arrays that need to be continuously filled everyday?
