its a rented condo so limited options for the time being. ALL IT did suggested me to buy another RT-AX53U act as a mesh to connect with my existing RT-AX53U router tho

Yes, you can mesh multiple Asus router. But you cannot mesh Asus with Huawei.

seems like this is the best way for now. thanks!!

Hi, asking for a friend,
Can replace this ONU with the OptiXstar HG8145X6-10 that is always on sale in Carousell myself?

Thanks.

Am i able to connect LAN cable direct to Huawei ONT (which was placed at my front door) and NOT from my indoor router?

I am able to do that with my unifi last time thats why i pulled a cable direct from outside to my room but not with TIME Huawei ONT.

If you are still on the older ONUs, then it's still possible with some customization, nways not possible for the new ONU anymore. But the new Huawei HG8145X6 ONT (2-in-1) you can.

Friend dunwan to renew contract...
so why not diy...

Is there any promo for contract renewal?

Hi all,

I got a TIME internet connection ~3 years back. Back then, they gave me a EG8240H5 ONT and WA8021V5 wifi router.

In April 2023, I signed up for a re-contract because they offered me HG8145X6 mesh (2 devices) and RM20 off for full 2y contract. When they came for the installation, I kept the EG8240H5 ONT because my home at that time had Fiber cable at the switch panel and I wanted to keep the wifi routers in the living room and bed room for good coverage.

Now, I moved to a new place where the fiber cable is coming directly to the living room. Because of that, I want to remove the EG8240H5 and use the HG8145X6 as the ONT+Wifi Router 2-in-1.
When I asked the relocation person to change this configuration, they said they can't do that and asked me to contact Time customer service to change it. But when I contact Time customer care phone, they're saying that they can't change this configuration due to back end issues.

On some online research, I found that the OLT at TIME end is configured with the MAC address of my ONT. This might be the reason it is not easy to change the ONT from EG8240H5 to HG8145X6. But I would expect TIME customer care or some one in their technical team should be able to change it at the OLT end or wherever required to remove EG8240H5 from my setup. I just went round and round with TIME customer care for a whole day without any progress.

Does anyone know how I can remove EG8240H5 from my setup and configure the HG8145X6 directly as ONT keeping its Wifi router functionality (2-in-1)? Has anybody done that?

I wanted to configure the weekly auto restart for every node..
Currently only available for main node..

Replied to your pm.

Now, my area Tmn Putra Perdana, Puchong just got their box. For commercial building MAxis take it.

Does time fiber is stable? MIne now Unifi and notice in a month ip change without me to restart router.

I'm using for a few months now. 0 downtime. IP changing is very normal.

Nice, will consider move to Time.

Need to addon iptv or it's already included?

Don't have iptv for time. Just internet and VoIP(per min)

It's 2024 now and connection to China is still horrible. Word is already spreading in one of the China Malaysia community that I happen to join.

China work apps like DingTalk are affected too.

The issue now is TIME using NTT as upstream and NTT is having severe congestion to China Telecom (Blame CT and NTT in both case)
The ultimate solution for TIME to solve this is reroute China Telecom traffic to other route
China Unicom so far still ok but the best China ISP for TIME is China Mobile (Thanks to CMI)

or

simply enable WARP / WARP+ solve this issue

or

find a China Mobile / Chunghwa Telecom (Taiwan) server as relay
