I disagree with you that the Huawei HG8145X6 is a crappy mesh router.
I have been using it heavily (working from home ) from 8am to 12:30 mid night every day since I subscribed to TIME in September.
It performs not bad and same performance with my Mercusys MR80 WiFi 6 router when I was on TM Unifi 500mbps.
I fully utilise these two mesh enabled routers by placing each one on level 1 and level 2 in my double storey landed house.
At first, I thought of purchasing new TP link router as some of you guys did.
Until now, I have no problem with these stock mesh enabled router given by TIME.
I am happy with these stock mesh enabled router given by TIME.
My android Tv box also works perfectly with these stock router.
I don't see anymore reason to replace these stock router with expensive TP link mesh or router.

Who ever wanna throw away these stock routers, please give them to me for free.

Good to hear that ...good luck

May I ask if I can install the Time internet (100Mbps) one without phone ?
Just wanted the internet service...

There is no phone service or a landline phone included with the plan

With that said, you are assigned a phone number,the all in one modem/router does have a phone port and if you plug in a phone, you can make and receive calls with a pay per minute rate

after browsing through tens of pages of the forum, i still need to ask sifus here for advice on migrating to 3rd party router.
I'm on time package using the Huawei HG1845X6 fiber modem+router combo. I've been experiencing dropped signal or router hanging up frequently (have about 15 devices connecting, but only 3-4 devices using majority of the data pipeline).

Plan to change to a 3rd party faster router, what would be a good recommendation? Router is in main hall, i have to connect to study room which has the pc, laptop and nas (ideally would need a repeater with LAN port there).

Question would be how do i migrate from TIME device to a 3rd party one. Do i still keep the Huawei and use it as a fiber ONT and connect the new router to the huawei? appreciate the expert guide here.

Maybe a TP-Link or Asus router, those are decent choicess

and yeah, just contact time and tell them you want to use your own router, they will set the huawei to just an ONT and you connect up your own device to it and setup with pppoe

Anyone switched from TIME to Maxis?

I am still using TIME 1Gbps but am seriously considering Maxis due to RM319 for 2Gbps.

Maxis' subsidy for the TV add-on is an amazing deal too.

The phone line is bundled with the Internet service with no monthly rental, if you don't use it, just leave it.

Hi, what you need to do is to convert the ONT back to the ONU mode (bridge mode), and have your own Router or Mesh system performing the PPPOE dialing via the ONU.
Do note that NOT advisable to hook up your router in AP mode & maintain the ONT by its default mode (ONU + Router).

Thanks.

Time should do something already.
Other provider now keep doing a lot of offer and cut price.
Now Astro Fibre even offer 500Mbps for RM90 per month and it is fixed price for 24 months.

Wew. I'm still under contract. Tak boleh lari. Haha sad

i am planning to sign up time fibre.

is this astro fibre using time's infrastructure or?

We need more this kind of competition

Curious if anyone knows whether TIME will do any retention or counter offer if people tried to leave them?

Hmm what is password is the problem? I was observing the technician entering the username and referring to the back panel for the password.

I tried last 4 digits of the MAC address. It's not working

Mind share the link ?

Astro Fiber Plan website still show wonderful price...

Hi,

I manage to key in my PPPoE login details in my Huawei HG8145X6, and I'm trying to set up with my old Huawei black Modem (given for abt 10years ago).
Originally was planning to set HG8145X6 as a wireless router

Huawei HG8145X6 its uplink mode is AP mode (not sure this is right mode?), but the problem is, it only connects if my LAN port1 of HG8145X6 connects to my LAN port1 of the old Huawei black modem.
if I switch to other ports, I'm getting red LED LOS on my HG8145X6.
Although it connects to the Internet, but my speed limit to 100Mbps on Ethernet connection to HG8145X6, vs previously was about 300Mbps+ prior my router is gone.

I might have the wrong setup
Any advice how do I fix/check?


Thanks

It is possible you're using an old 10/100Mbps modem

But why on earth are you using that old modem?

Just fiber -> HG8145X6 will do, but I think the configuration settings for that are not accessible for you to setup yourself

Hi, if you are using the ONU 10 years ago, it should be either Huawei HG850A or HG8240, it is on Fast Ethernet ports (100Mbps), do call the CS & request for a change.
Another matter, you cannot connect to other ports as binding is only done on LAN1.
