QUOTE(blacktubi @ Dec 14 2023, 06:36 PM) Just curious what other ISP got good routing to China from Malaysia? Unifi is hit or miss too. To be honest, TM have better routing to China Telecom / China Unicom compared to TIME to CT usually it goes to TM JP PoP and to CT JP PoP , but for TIME case is via NTT SG - CT SG PoP (I'm not sure certain IP range will have different routes or not) And my China friend told me NTT SG - CT SG PoP had a very severe congestion throughout 24/7 , packet loss >20% and above

Just had my time broadband installed. I can only say it is totally disappointed. The ONU Huawei wifi router + modem and mesh are simply trash. Even the room next to living room that has the ONU connected also could not get more than 200Mbps of speed. Anyway I can change the stoopig ONU to bridge mode so I can use my own wifi mesh?

Yes you can, just call CS & tell them you insist to change the first unit of the X6 (which has fiber connected) to bridge mode, and you wish to use your own Mesh Systems.

Condo WiFi is tough. RC slab walls blocking signal + high desity of AP from neighbors.

RC slab walls blocking signal + high desity of AP from neighbors. yes, absolutely tough, it is even harder to get good coverage and system with the wifi mesh at my double storey landed house previously. damn.. besides, are these settings even correct in the first place? why mesh wifi is using AP mode?

Yes that is how it looks. Link speed between AP looks good. I live in landed and had the main unit floor above mesh. I could get 200mbps with around 400 link speed. I think it's something else that's affecting your wifi speed.

It can at least attain 300Mbps++ of speed at the child node… QUOTE(eauyong @ Dec 17 2023, 01:36 PM) 500Mbps is rather good wifi speed.

If away also cannot hit full speed. This post has been edited by westlife: Dec 17 2023, 01:59 PM

QUOTE(westlife @ Dec 18 2023, 11:20 AM) initially tot that once moving to apartment, the coverage and speed by rite should be better given that the area is smaller. who knows it is even harder than landed. speed inside my study room which the wall next to it is where the huawei ONT located. Good point you know the wall is thick and strong This post has been edited by ronnie: Dec 18 2023, 12:37 PM
