Need ideas to boost the wifi. The speed is really slow since MCO

Mine is the 500mbps plan

Speedtest says download 23.9 mbps and upload is 17.8 mbps. I am not gettin what i paid for right

No Exception? I mean what else do I even need to get the connection into my unit other than the fiber line, router and modem?

Yea will try.. This is based on the 2.4 ghz connection that my laptop can connect.

Would getting a better router helps to extend wifi coverage or get better speed?  certain rooms can access wifi via installed extender but the speed is even crap than this

The router is Archer C1200

Sifu,

Need help.

On TIME and using the TP Link C1200 router.

Have subscribed to SmartDNS and have inputted the DNS settings into the Router, no problem.

The problem is:-

I have a Chromecast, and the its hotwired to seek out the Google DNS. 8888 and 8844

I have followed some guides on the internet on how to set a static route that guides the 8888 and 8844 back to 192.168.0.1 (router ip)

It's supposed to work, but it doesn't work. Pinging 8888 and 8844 keeps getting replies.

Am at my wits end here. Any sifu can help? Is it a problem with the router? if i needs changing, which model is a good one that allows me to 100% block Google DNS so my Chromecast works?

THanks.

This is the method i have tried. but it doesn't work

Ping 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. still gets reply

Is it possible to suspend my account during this MCO period?

I'm stuck here at my hometown and I'm paying for nothing for the last month.

God knows when will I be back home.

Bro, thought about switching to this from Unifi. How is their consistency DL/UL ??

Hi,

i want to ask something regarding IPv6 prefixes. How can I request a /56 prefix? Because by default TIME only give /64 prefix which does not enough for my LAN network.

Update: Retested again on ethernet and i got 400 plus mbps for download which is amazing compare to my wifi connection of 40.7. 10 times faster

So question would be: Am i being limited by my laptop device or the router's wifi (Archer C1200) or the fact that im using my wifi upstairs in my room. Would a better router or mesh wifi solve this issue? The technical support guy actually suggested that I should downgrade my plan

I never click to activate.

But the free call plan activated itself when I log in.

Yea seems to be bad for games lately

Look at the timeouts

Hi. My contract is ending next month, TIME called my wife and told her that they will charging us additional RM200++ on top of the monthly fee to upgrade our router if want to continue the service.  Tried to call back yesterday but couldn't get through. Will try again later.

In the mean time, anyone else received such call?
Kindly confirm the number that you received the call.

1. Is that a normal practice? (i.e. additional fee upon contract ended)
If you are going for the default stock router that comes bundled with the package, there is NO additional charge.
Unless you choose to upgrade to a more powerful router.

2. Is it compulsory to upgrade router?
No, it's not.

Thanks.

Hi guys , my place got fiber optic already. But the TIME internet page says no coverage in my area. I've write up to TIME about this but no respond at all. Please suggest me what can I do next ? 

Hi sifu,
Urgent help needed. I think I might have damaged fiber cable during cable management. Can I just replace it with any fiber cable such as below? LOS light is blinking red. I called TIMe and they won't be able to do check inside during MCO.
Anybody from penang has extra can offer I'll gladly pay for it. Tqvm.

Thanks JJ. I've pm'ed you. Much appreciated.

Anyone has issues with their TIME connection today? Since morning the network has been disconnected abruptly, no chance of reconnecting it back.

I want to really thank JJ for his help on personal capacity to loan a replacement cable while waiting for technician to come over sometime next week.
This has helped mitigate any downtime for coming week work and children online schooling. Really appreciate his great help even though I didn't sign up the service from him.
If you looking to install TIME at your place in penang, pls do look for him, guarantee good service 👍

I am a TIME subscriber, and it's a necessity for me since I work from home.

I need to move apartments since the lease to the current one is expiring; however, when I checked the TIME website, the earliest relocating date they have is on the 17th of June, which is way too late.

Would it be possible to have a third party contractor to come do the relocation?

hi already register for Time before mco started but still no installation. Anyone know when they will resume. i live in Penang Mainland juru.
