Lazy and cheapskate to invest.. Haha dun wan to fork out more than RM 200.. Have been using Unifi for years.. So don't mind the 2 years contract..

Thanks for your input, yes turbo upgrade to 500mbps, I have seen a lot of recommendation for the asus blue cave. Just managed to cancel the router that they offered. What else do I need besides a new router. A new cable as well? TM technician charging me RM50 for the setup once I get everything ready. I am quite confused with the usb thingy in order to get full speed. So I could not get full speed on mobile phone?

Fair enough, but you can get the Archer C6 for slightly more than RM200, which is a bit of a waste though, but whatever makes you happy.

My current setup

Sad. Time to upgrade your router.

so for wifi using 2.4ghz can only achieve around 50Mbps only eh? I thought can get more than that.

Can get above 100Mbps but depends on a few factors.

By the way, don't expect 2.4GHz to be good for use. It is full of interference and very congested most of the time.

ahhh thanks. will read it later.

is router considered as sensitive item? so far i have brought electrical shaver, led light projector with bluetooth speaker, air purifier, mate 20 game controller with bluetooth. all reached safely with taobao direct sea shipment.

Direct sea shipment no problem for sensitive item to clearance custom.
But for air shipment very strict, and yes, those electrical item as mentioned also considered sensitive item.
Router is sensitive item as per check with my forwarding agent.

Sorry for OT again, just reply info

Can anyone get over 100 megabytes/s for torrents on 800M Turbo?

Can but depends on the torrent as is always the case with torrents.

600+ Mbps on Turbo500 for a single Centos torrent chosen for its well-seededness. Downloading to internal MacBook Pro SSD.

Of course the router and computer, especially the disk, also needs to be up to the task.

Have not tried on Turbo800 yet.

this is helpful, thanks

Can try with 800 account?

I asked my friends with 800 and they said only about 600, cannot get full 800 on torrent.

Oh wow, good to hear then. Guess I will wait for abit more.

I can get around 130Mbps++ to 150Mbps+ on 2.4Ghz with my TP-Link C1200

Halo, I’m foreigner, i applied TM Unifi but was rejected since they need 2 years contract. Currently under assignment in KL until dec 2020. However, since my passport will be expired in June 2020, the work permit written on the passport is only until May 2020. But I still have a letter from immigration stating that my work permit is until Dec 2020. Once I renewed my passport (plan to do it end of this year) then working permit also will be updated.

Is there any chance for my application to have unifi at my place to be approved for installation and subscription? Currently stay in The Mews Condominium with rent contract until Jan 2021.
