My parent's house just got the turbo boost few months back and they are still using the HG850a ONU. Do I need call TM to have that replaced? They are on 500mbps speed.

Have to or else speeds will be limited to 100Mbps. The HG850a only has 100Mbps Ethernet ports.

There should be no charge at all for the change as the BTU is TM’s responsibility.

Old or new is just relative and general assumption only. Older models are usually lest modern than newer ones.

Wifi AC 5Ghz (802.11ac) is definitely newer than Wifi N 2.4Ghz (802.11n).
However, not all new devices support wifi AC 5Ghz. Even if it supports, there is also difference in speed supported due to antenna & chipset used inside the device.

Even some smartphones/laptops selling in 2018 or 2019 still 'skimp' on the wifi AC support, where they only use wifi N 2.4Ghz in the device to save cost and sell cheaper.
You should check the spec of the device to be sure. Just check the specs and models of your wifi USB dongle, Wifi cards (laptop), smartphone and the wifi router first. Every model is different in their own.
Older devices we can safely say are less modern. But we can't say this to all devices because old phones like Note5, galaxy s8, iPhone6/7 are still good on wifi AC 5Ghz speed because they were the high end models at their launch time (premium models and still going strong).

Like new cars, not all are given the extra features of push start button, keyless entry, reverse camera, 6 air bags, multi-port usb chargers, and all the fancy stuff. It depends on which tier you buy. More money put in, more features with latest techs.
But as time goes, all these basic features will slowly become a 'standard' if the manufacturer wants to do it for an added cost.

Maybe they just clearance the old chips.. Even some multifunction printer selling in 2018 or 2019 still cannot copy(or printing) A4 in full size(the page number will be truncated rclxub.gif ).. devil.gif

Make report yesterday and call installer, this morning woke up already can connect but now disconnect again, dont know is tm or installer problem. If fibre cable problem straight away cant connect right?

I suggest call installer to come check. It is definitely a physical issue. They need to check for you. Where in Penang are you? They could be doing some maintenance.

Lol. You don’t need to quote the whole first post. I did say 20MHz, somewhere in there: “2.4 GHz offers coverage for further distances, but may perform at slower speeds. Use 20MHz channels in the 2.4 GHz band”.

Update 11:55pm

It was indeed a user error for one case! My new laptop didn't come with gigabit ethernet, just fast ethernet @ 100Mbps. I did speedtest again via usb gigabit ethernet adapter. I managed to get >800Mbps result. doh.gif

ranting.gif Feel so cheated by TM  vmad.gif

I have 2 Unifi 800 account under me. I got my upgrade early of last year, no issue with getting full speed with my current equipment. However recently did speed test with my Laptop via LAN, no equipment change. One location getting 100Mbps D/100Mbps U another 300Mbps D/ 100Mbps U. I contacted TM via Livechat and both location also did port reset but still same speed results. Now waiting for technical team to call me for site visit.

Some more they will tell you, site visit if your fault then RM53 will be billed. Next if fiber equipment faulty, option1 free replacement but extend contract WTF  ranting.gif  vmad.gif  option2 pay for yourself for the new equipment with no contract extension.

Dont know how long i have been getting slow speed but still paying full bill amount. What a scam!  icon_question.gif
*
old laptop might not get full speed due to cpu usage full or browser problem or hardware problem or router problem.
Try change new cable or new device or new browser to speedtest.

(Example: my 2017 i77700hq laptop always cant get full speed with lan or wifi.I also dont know why,using power adapter also,but sometimes can get more than 500mbps)(With my desktop pc always full speed after format my pc)

The bandwidth on 5GHz is up to you. You can go for 40MHz or 80MHz, depending on your devices and your speed.

Existing, hidden inside ceiling.
I paid less than RM100 to the installers, not much, one-off.
I appreciate it. Don't want to have an eyesore for many years to come.
