we need a U Mobile Fiber thread now
What model D-Link is that, that was provided by U Mobile?

also, I see you are also part of the "use laptop cooler as router cooler" gang
cooler master has a router cooler but its so expensive, rather use cheap laptop cooler

TIME
EMIT

just reversed

that is one clever naming...

You can see it in the portal

PCIe Wifi card is forever better than USB ones, most wifi 6 cards based on Intel AX200 are good

even on say, that Gigabyte board with built in wifi, you can actually replace the wifi card
guide: https://forum.level1techs.com/t/replacing-w...-strix/155874/2
(guide is for an asus board but it's all the same)

It is a combo 2 in one modem router

Just ask TIME CS to change it over to modem mode for you and then you can connect your own router

I have done it before
I subscribed to 500Mbps to get the wifi6 devices and enjoy the speed at rm99 for 6 months but fully intend to downgrade to 100mbps to keep the price at rm99

after 6 months pass, the downgrade button in the image above becomes avaliable
once you confirm and submit the downgrade request, you downgrade with a contract reset
so you are back to being stuck with them for 24 months

you get the keep the hardware

the only penalty is the contract reset

Messed up on that calculation there
99 + 20 = 119

(Think of it like rm100 + 20 = rm120)

It is a slight discount over public price but you get locked back in again
Also the free routers are ehhhhhh

I took a closer look at the tnc page and I noticed

> and to existing subscribers who received complimentary speed boost between 27 March 2024 to 7 April 2024.

for me
checking on selfcare webpage shop shows 100
yet mobile app shop shows 200

also got it here, nice!

you could have 2Gbps at the router for all that matters but if your pc has a N150 card you will only ever get ~40Mbps, the speed of the connection between your router and device and between router and device is different
,
40Mbps is the realistic maximum you will get on 2.4Ghz
you will need to use 5Ghz for max speed

what is your wifi card? older wifi cards may not be able to get the max speed
for me I can get 200Mbps no problem with Intel AX200 card

yes, because that is an old WIFI 5 router
the time one is at least wifi 6

probably their max upload is 500mbps plans since even 2gbps plan gets 500mbps upload

for me I went from 100/100 to 200/200

It's right there, 200/200

I basically cant update any of my linux sbcs







the latency / packet loss shoots up immediately after leaving the local network

Did you already set the 2 in 1 router/ont into bridge mode?
You can ask CS to do that for you

Also I think time might use VLAN 499

you need to change the gpon password/SN to match your old one

on the new one it's under
Advanced -> System Management -> ONT Authentication

login to old one and find that and copy the password and SN from old one to here

Basically, India didn't outright ban VPNs but made it so that anyone who wants to operate there must log all the information

Which is the opposite of what a VPN service typically offers

That news article is from 2022... That's not "recently"

> My current setup is: HG8240H5 > EC230-G1 > Powerline adapter

what powerline adapter are you using?

> 1) What is the recommended setup to improve the internet speed at the yellow area?

1st one, dont even bother with that
2nd, can be considered but, just drop the EC230-G1 and go

HG8240H5 -> Deco M4 -> another unit of Deco M4

but do also consider newer wifi6 routers

> 2) What is estimated speed drop if using mesh as compared to my current powerline adapter?

better, but best if you can run a lan cable between them or use an expensive tri-band mesh

> 3) Do i need to upgrade my current router?

can consider wifi6 router/mesh
