Hi, if you read through past messages, you will see some users & we did highlighted for some houses, Archer C1200 actually outperforms WA8021V5 in terms of wifi signal penetration & speed.

Thanks.

If it has been switched to bridge mode, then you need to configure your own router with the given PPPOE credentials & connect the Router WAN/Internet port to the LAN1 port of the Huawei ONT.

Thanks.

i'm switching from unifi VDSL 30mbps to TIME 100mbps fiber
the improvement is driving saga to camry

suppose to 3.33x faster.... no surprises also. Driving a kancil 660cc upgrade to 2000cc car...

don't call, use chat faster
protip: you can skip the automated stuff and straight go to actual person by typing "live chat"

done in ~15m from several of my past experiences.

Ok, Thanks. Considering putting on top of bookshelf or TV cabinet.

Thanks for the feedback. So much different? Unifi still can survive? I keep receive the flyer for this both provider at condo.

That position is the best already. Maybe speed in master bedroom will be weaker but office should be fine.

Forecast around 100Mbps on 5Ghz with the stock router.

Should I pre order ASUS RT-AX55 WiFi 6 on shopee? Its only RM309 tonight at 12am.

Or there are better routers out there to enjoy faster speeds?

For master bedroom, probably I can add another ASUS RT-AX55 WiFi 6 in the office and mesh it if the speeds are too slow.

Hi all,

Was hoping to get some advice / thoughts on my proposed mesh configuration in my house (3800 sqft)
I am currently using TIME 500mbps plan where my contact is eligible for re-contracting with free devices.
Once I, recontract they will provide me with one Wifi 6 node (Huawei HG8145X6) and one Wifi 5 node (Huawei WA8021V5).

My plan:
1. Main router (Wifi 6 Node) located at Family area
2. I already have Cat 5e cable run from main router location to Bedroom 2 and Guestroom
3. Will purchase additional 2 x Wifi 6 Node (RM 719) to be used at bedroom 2 and guestroom via ethernet backhaul
4. Wifi 5 node to be used at entrance terrace via wireless backhaul



Would this be an ideal plan or instead of purchasing two additional wifi 6 nodes from TIME, to go for another brand / solution?
The TP-Link Deco X60 3-pack is RM 1.5k, but I was thinking by spending half of that would I achieve the same result?

Thanks for your thoughts

Anyone experiencing ping spike on TIME network since 9.30PM?
My area under Damansara Damai and i noticed a ping spike to all network since 9.30PM
Is TIME having problem now?

Hi, budgetary options like Huawei AX3 Pro, TP-Link AX73 or even the stock router HG8145X6 may do the trick.
Thanks.

jjj2 pm me if you have staff or a contact that services Mont Kiara - might need an audit and rectification. The installer I used managed to turn a CAT6 into CAT5 speeds and is now shirking responsibility

@jjj2 just wanna check, changing to bridge mode is done by level 2 tech remotely isn't it? And it should be no charges right? I wonder why the time broadband chat agent said there is an RM80 charge and cannot be done remotely and installer need to come physically?

Hi jjj2, can u explain what kid of house showed AC1350/1200 better than WA8015v5 ? thanks. bcz i received the same call from customer services asked me to renew the contract for anothre 2yrs and in re turn the give me the Huawei WA8021V5 FOC.

Hi, are you chatting with bots ? Please ring CS @ 1800 18 1818.
Yes can be done remotely by pushing over the settings to your ONT.

Thanks.

We tested it in condos approx. 900--1200 sq ft. with 3 bedrooms about 8-10m away, Archer C1200 outperforms the WA8021V5 significantly. You won't see much difference if your unit is open studio type...it gets more obvious where you have corners even though it's not far away from the router.

Hi, can let me know what is the issue in more details ?
Thanks.

Hi. last year got new time connection and I was provided the new HG8145V5 but some settings specially the dns cannot change. Since I work from home and sometimes got vpn/intranet issues, our IT ask me to test different dns settings they provide to troubleshoot the issue. I want the settings to be on the modem/router since I use 2 machines (1 desktop and 1 laptop) for work so I rather not change dns settings manually in windows and have them removed again when I work from another location or from the office.

I have a friend who has HG8240H that he is not using anymore (also previously used with TIME)

Questions
1. Can I borrow his onu and use it with my connection?
2. Do I need to call time to setup anything?
3. Can I set it up myself without calling time?
4. Should I just call time and setup my HG8145V5 to bridge mode and I control my network using my own router?
5. If option #4 do I need special router or normal one with option for pppoe settings will work?

Basically I want to use his modem/onu/ont and have my own separate router to handle things on my own I just need the connection to time's server. Basically my time connection I don't use the phone.. I just basically use it for internet

Another reason for changing modem and want my own router to setup my network is because they are hijacking the dns



Any information will be appreciated.
