Anyone subscribe to Maxis Home Fibre 100Mbps and using own router?

What is your speed test result?

Mine as of this morning





Any idea why the speed is no where 100Mpbs?

try restarts your router

Tested with cable or WiFi?

Restarted my router many times.

Using Wifi on 5 GHz connection.

ive been hit with this problem many timesd after 100mbps upgrade. call 123 with your voip, tell them to reset port. shut down both btu n router for 3+ minutes. hopefully it will solve.

this problem occurs again every 2 days though.

That's suck!

Are you using Maxis's router?

is LAN speed ok?

What do you mean?

im on TM BTU with Maxis new TP LINK Archer C5v.

I'm also on 100M plan. If using Maxis new TP-Link router, got 26Mbps with 5GHz WiFi.

With my DLink router, got 99Mbps at 5GHz WiFi. Ended up using own router instead.

means that tplink provide by maxis got problem?not stable izzit?

Maybe they enabled QoS. Will check later.

should be no effected..
i am using TG389ac so far so good also

I am using my own router. Using Tenda dual band at 5GHz. But got no where near 100Mbps.

Maybe just wait for Maxis to come and install new router. See if there is a change.

i just got the router replacement, but there is no difference, still getting 26-30Mbps using LAN or Wifi
the only time i get near 100Mbps (i don't mind 90%-95% of the actual speed), which is the first day i change to 100Mbps package, after this

kindly like getting cheated by maxis.

this is my test, i using TPLINK WR1043ND

im about to get the maxis guy to install a fiber cable (100mpbs) at my area - tmn taynton view Cheras, since TM couldnt upgrade to unifi caber (im using streamyx 4mpbs currently)
im also afraid will be cheated by maxis since TM also said no port at my area yet Maxis said can fix it by installing a dedicated cable....

How's your maxis fiber?

I recently changed to Maxis 100mbps and couldnt get the speed anywhere near to 100mbps.

Complaint many times and apparently software needed upgrade.

Upgraded but many times wifi signal is full bar but no internet. SC say to reboot the router weekly and says its a common issue.

This is the stupidest answer i got.

Are you connected to 2.4GHz or 5GHz wifi connection? If 2.4, you would only be getting around 40Mbps. You have to connect to 5GHz.

I connect to 5G and its the 5G that gives the most prob..

Then it could be problem on Maxis end.

Recently also facing same issues where 5G constantly getting disconnected... Not too sure is it because of the maxis router... Anyway plan to get a new router since my wireless speed only can reach 50mbps instead 100mbps...

Finally, someone has the same problem as mine. Constant show no Internet using 5g, more stable with the 2.4g but the speed is limit to 30-40mbps

Are you sure you are testing INSIDE Malaysia?

Speedtest inside Malaysia gives me 100/50 and I have a 100/50 subscription so that's fine.

Outside Malaysia I get 1-10Mbps depending on the time of the day.

Your reported speed is well within the range of my international speed, so maybe you're testing the wrong speedtest server?

Also know, when you are in east Malaysia, even connecting to a server 1km away from you, your signal ALWAYS goes first
to the censorship filter installation in Kuala Lumpur and then back to eastern Malaysia.

It's not like connecting to a server in KK and you're from KK to wire it from your home inside KK to the server in KK.

It always first goes to the censorship filters near Kuala Lumpur. This is Malaysian law, all ISP must filter the internet so
no need to complain to Maxis about it. That's just how it is, and if they would extend the filters to filter IP ranges known as botnets, malware, etc I'd even favor that filtering! Unfortunately the filters don't seem to filter out criminal networks, only "inappropriate"

and the "inappropriate" is actually my lesser worries, I rather have them to focus on criminal networks and IP ranges.

Anyway, these filters can also be a bottleneck of course.
