Yeah, you write exactly like whats on my mind notworthy.gif
Any Deco M4 owner can try this setup?

Dang, sad.gif

My Deco M4 already in permanent setup (cabling, trunking, power, etc). Else I can give it a try. sweat.gif

The setting that I tried before, with latest Deco M4 firmware of course.

BTU -> Deco M4 (Router mode) -> HyppTV box

>>> Deco M4 >>> all wifi devices

Noted. Thank you very much Sifu  notworthy.gif
I already have 2 pair of PLC powerline. Set 1 pair for internet and 1 pair hypptv failed miserably.
So currently only 1 pair set for hypptv and another pair was unused for it to be functional.
When I downstairs, i will be connected to internet using TM router upstairs, but the speed was so so only sweat.gif

I agree with blacktubi detail explanation. thumbup.gif

Deco units is design with ease of configuration in mind. Targeted for mainstream user. Not for power user with 'exotic' / not so normal configuration.

For normal use, it's very good thumbsup.gif

PLC powerline might be the best solution at the moment. Or you can pull Cat5e or Cat6 UTP cable from your main router to your HyppTV box yourself. flex.gif

HaHa, all a matter of perspective. I have been struggling for so many years with 4 Mbps streamyx and paying RM 148.40 per month. Finally got 100 Mbps few days ago for RM 129 per month. Its a huge difference for me. Cannot imagine what 800 Mbps will be like smile.gif

800mbps vs 100mbps. Not much. Unless you're a serious downloader. Provided that the source can keep up with it.

Netflix 4k - need up to 20mbps only. Ful HD video - need 5-7mbps only.

It also depends on how many user utilising the connection too.

yeah. unless download else really cannot tell the difference.

yup. so actually 30Mbps is even enough for light users.

Yup... I even downgrade mine from 500mbps to 100mbps. My UniFi normal utilisation hovering 5mbps to 30mbps only. Max to 80mbps during torrent only. 8 to 10 wifi devices, 2 PCs and 2 - 3 notebooks, 2 servers always connected 24 x 7. sweat.gif

At the moment, 100mbps is more than enough.

TV ultimate pack included right? smile.gif

EDIT: With tax how much monthly?  brows.gif

Yup it include Ultimate pack.

Total to pay = RM159 + 6% SST (RM9.55).

sweat.gif

And one more reason that I didn't move to Maxis is because of public IP address. Need public IP address because I have 4 servers running. Need stable IPV4 & IPV6. So far, UniFi implementation works. thumbsup.gif

Hmm, it appears that TM Unifi now deploys fibre FTTH to high rise buildings that uses VDSL copper? These photos are taken at one of my friend's condo unit. The condo is located in Setapak, Kuala Lumpur.

The fibre cable is obviously laid like this, which is kinda eyesore la tbh... The condo doesn't have fibre infrastructure, so they had to lay the cable into condo unit like this. Similar like TIME Fibre.

Close up look at TM's fibre cable

New TM Unifi ONU fibre modem? It's not the Huawei anymore...

FiberHome brand... I never hear before. As what I know, even Maxis Fibre and TIME Fibre don't supply this fibre modem brand to its customers...  hmm.gif

Let me remind again, these photos are taken in a condominium and not landed house, where all this while, many would never thought that TM would deploy FTTH to high rise buildings someday and stuck in copper cable forever.

The fibre cable comes from the ceiling of the corridor (walkway), and then ends at the MDF room.
As I walk around the corridor in the same floor, apparently only my friend's unit and a very few other units can be seen that the fibre cable is laid into units like this.
Maybe they would only come and lay fibre cable for new installations or customers who upgrades to Unifi's higher speed package?

I contacted TM via live chat and ask, they say the condo is using the combination of both copper and fibre, and the max speed for high rise building is basically still 30Mbps.  shakehead.gif
Then I was like, if it's only 30Mbps, then what's the point of them installing fibre at the first place?  dry.gif
Since it's already using fibre cable, why not offer much higher speeds that VDSL copper can't provide, such as 300Mbps and above?  shakehead.gif

My router costs less than RM 200 and feature-rich. Together with 3 used routers as APs, smart switch, RJ45 faceplates & a Raspberry Pi, total cost is less than RM 1K and I'm happy with the results.

Of course my setup is not for everyone, including those who think a good router is only worth RM 100 whistling.gif

Similarly with my setup. A cheap 10 ports Mikrotik router (RM300) together with Deco M4 mesh (RM300) do the trick for my house. thumbsup.gif

TIME and Maxis has since stopped the RM500 rebate to attract TM customers to switch to them ever since they found out TM quietly changed their termination policy to remaining 24 mths contract from just 1-off RM500 payment.

TM is the bad guy here. Consumers beware, this untrusted company has been dishonest ever since Streamyx days. Their brand promotion motto on their vans which ask consumers to "TRUST US" is prove that they're very guilt conscious over their own marketing.

"Trust Us" to be screwed of course. whistling.gif
