Need some tips for buying my router guys,hope all can help in providing some advice.

Will subscribe to time 99 package but will consider 129 package bcos 4 person stream youtubes mostly

Which router to buy to buy or shud i just stick with the free one that comes with package

I dont mind spending around 300 for a good router if it really helps on speed. Better of buying a router which supports 500Mbps altogether bcos might be taking 129 package afterall

Thanks in advance to all the gurus here and nice to meet u all guys...ermmm and girls if there is any...lol

Hi,

Welcome onboard to TIME Fibre smile.gif

There are currently some bugs on the current stock router, you could get your own router configured to make it better.

You may spend bit more and go for AC2600 D-Link DIR-882 afterall its price is just RM550 (subsidized) and includes onsite Installation with 3 years warranty.

Thanks.

Hi JJ

Wud like to know if this price is gonna get me the best router around or if the best is like 600 I'll go for it instead,but if the sufficient for me is 300 then i might get 300 then

Thanks for taking the time to reply

if you dont need QoS, plenty of routers actually will do your needed speeds with hardware acceleration if the hardware acceleration supports PPPOE and VLANs. 2nd, look for a router that can do 500Mb/s of wifi. 2 channel wifi AC will easily do 300Mb/s, 3 channel can do more, 4 channel MU-MIMO even better for faster speeds but, they all require the clients to also have the same wifi. If your laptop only have 2 channel wifi AC, 300Mb/s+ is your practical speed, even if your router got 8 wifi channels.

Channel availability is another thing, not only what your location has around it, but what frequencies the router and your PC can use.

If you need QoS, i suggest a different router and wifi combo.

I wish i had time where i am, TM treats us very very badly. I live in high rise too. However it would be nice if TIME could spread to homes too, and they actually have. Someone mentioned before that they werent allowed too but they've actually had landed lines for very very long.
