which package are you guys using?

mine is still at a ridiculous pricing of around 300 bucks for astro + 10 mbps maxis broadband.

I think it's time we create a petition of sorts and bring it to Maxis. The last time Time upgraded the speed for everyone on the standalone package, Astro took 1 year to follow suit.....that's bullshit given that there's nothing much to do to be on par with what TIME or Maxis is offering today.

how do we do it?

i'm really considering cancelling the astro IPTV + maxis broadband package and then reinstall astro only + unifi.

better deal and faster speed.

as for the speed, 10 mbps, paying 148 for it is really bangwall.gif

not necessary..pvr only work with new set top box..it doesnt matter maxis or time or unifi...its the set top box it self got pvr function

ah okay, in that case, let me talk to astro/maxis, if they don't upgrade and lower down the price to the market rate, then gonna cut the broadband and choose some other service provider.

And another point to add, apparently you can use other Internet from other provider to pair with IPTV, but only for the "on demand", the live programme will be affected. For example if you view football, you may get disruption.

But I think this is kinda nonsense. Can anyone verify? I got this from the customer service while speaking with them yesterday.
