upgraded to 500Mbps but max speed i could get over wifi 2.4g is only around 120Mbps. 5g under 100...

alcatel btu + tplink wdr4300 + tl-wdn4800 pci.

yesterday bought 30m of cat6 cable to test wired speed but only manage to get around 250Mbps.

is there anything wrong with the router because i think it should be capable to deliver 500Mbps over wired connection. or 30m is too long for that speed?

was thinking of hire a handyman over to do a wired connection from router to pc room upstairs but now i have 2nd thought. i figure that would be cheaper than upgrade to a high end router + pci card. if i'll have to upgrade for full speed even on wired then i might as well go wireless right?

any advice? thanks in advance.

Read 1st page, 1st post, green text. Your speed is probably throttled by the router’s hardware. You have to upgrade your router.

yes, it's only a n750 router. on paper its max wifi speed: 5GHz: 450Mbps; 2.4GHz: 300Mbps, hence 750 but those are irrelevant because i am on wired connection. it has 4 gigabit LAN ports.
*
Doesn’t matter that it has gigabit LAN ports. It is throttled by its old hardware as I say. Get a better router with newer and better hardware, and you will be okay.

By the way, am interested in the aztech fg7008gr. Are there any disclaimers prior to buying this router? Custom roms like merlin possible? Any known faultiness etc?

See 1st page, 1st post, green text. You could be throttled by your router, cable, or BTU.

Could be routing issue then.

Anyone facing slow connection around 7pm and on next morning speed drops until 10 to 20 mbps only. Sometime LOS light blinking red on modem in early morning around 6am. Been experiencing this since last Saturday consistently until this morning. 

So far TM still has no idea what went wrong. If no issue my speed is 800 mbps.
*
Service issue maybe.

High-rise won't get turbo usually as the physical infrastructure just doesn't support it unfortunately.

Thanks in advance.

after seven years with Unifi, changing to Maxis soon.
Long story short, got pissed off by TM because they claim there is no extra port on my new house at Bukit bandaraya when I applied at TM point to relocate my unifi.
So, i tried maxis last Wednesday.and well..well..well what do you know, they say port available (even though they are sharing ports with TM) within a few hours they emailed me application form, I completed it emailed back..today confirmed and set date of installation..
*
I can never understand why TM does not want new customers. Probably it is reserved for Maxis customers?

I notice my page were randomly auto refresh cause of dns silent replaced by tm.
Sometime i check my running dns were switch back to tm dns. Causing steam client complete blocked.

Get your own router, disable IPv6, and use Google DNS for IPv4. Done.

Can someone suggest the cheapest GE router which supports Unifi 500Mbps? 

No need AC router as I already have Tenda AC11 which acts as AP since I cannot configure it as router for Unifi.

Thanks!

Click the link on my signature and see list of recommended routers. You will need an AC router to even attempt to hit 500Mbps. It won't be cheap.

If you see 1st page, 1st post, green text, you will see that the router you mentioned has lots of problems. I suggest testing with another router. Get your own.

I'm talking about hitting those speed on wired connection.  Wireless, another story la.  Even on wired, still need high end AC router?
*
I know la. You don't really need a powerful and expensive router, but even on wired, and if you have a cheap router with gigabit ports, the speed will still be throttled by the hardware of the router i.e. you won't get full gigabit speed.

WTF are you on about?

If you are working for a router distributor and provide tech support for their products, I suggest you stick to those forums instead of giving lame excuses to justify and promote unnecessary/exorbitant router purchases here!

*
I should have explained better and as soonwai explained properly, if you are using it just for basic functions, you don't need anything good. My bad.

However, in saying that, you seem to have a negative perception of me, and I am definitely not working for any distributor nor reseller. For your information, I am not trying to justify or promote unnecessary/exorbitant router purchases, but as the OP of this thread, I have seen questions where people are trying to get the best speed but using a less than capable router, so I am only suggesting a router which can support their speed.

By the way, don't accuse me of anything that you do not have evidence of. You can't just say that I am working for a distributor or reseller if you don't know me at all in real life. Cheers.

Guys, I recently subscribed to the new RM129 100Mbps plan and CSO told me I only have to pay for the internet service. But when I received the bill, I realized I was charged for the hypptv as well. During the signup I wasn’t even given a choice to choose any package and in the bill I was shocked when I found out the Aneka package was chosen. How can they subscribe me to something I didn’t given conscent to?

TM online CSO told me the tv service comes as a bundle and cannot be unsubscribed. Is it true?

Please advise.
*
Yes. It is true. Didn't you read the official TM package page? UnifiTV will be bundled and you can only access it via the playtvapp. The person that you sign up with should have told you about it.

Thinking to reduce my 500mb package to 100mb but seems like not RM129 if this the case you said. So end price for 100mb is actually Rm159 for 100mb?
*
No, it is RM129, with the bundle of TV and Internet, unless you want to get the Ultimate TV pack, which will be an additional charge.

and can we call TM to replace the BTU without any charges?

Try the Tenda AC18. Refer to 1st page, 1st post, green text, for list of recommended routers for your speed, and other general networking info.

Yes, you can call them to replace it without any charges. BTU is lifetime warranty.
