I signed up at TM point in JB. I was told by the CSO who signed me up that I only had to pay RM129 as it is just the internet package without any other services. I even received a SMS on that day I signed up that I don’t have to pay for the playtv (RM0/month).

Time to make a trip to TM point.

The technician said it was hardware version 3.01. However when i opened it, it's actually hardware version 1.0 but with some minor changes such as the network switch chip. Their firmware is the latest TP-LINK Malaysia Unifi firmware. I also changed it from the D-Link DIR-842 hardware version C2. I prefer that one and has bigger wifi coverage. I been using it for a week and no reboot issue compared to the first version TP-LINK from TM. Overall, this new one is already stable so yeah it's good.  Refer to my post.

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.

its do not means new tech,

hopefully TM on right track to VDSL2 on G.fast, profile 35a or 35b

nothing wrong with vdsl, check the country list. if keep only fibre, the subb forever streamyx

Did TM sell off our Unifi details to maxis? 

I was doing some billing work stuff until I received a call from 03-5885 9335.

The guy was asking if I am Mr xxx xxx xxx (my name).
When I said yes. He asked if I live at Lot xxxxxx (my EXACT home address!)
He even got my unifi subscription package correctly. 

The moment he started to mention he is from Maxis, I stopped him and said I am still in contract with TM, can't change.
Then he said, "No, I am not promoting maxis fibre, I am calling to ask if you encounter slow speed, high latency and issue with TM Unifi. Company wants to verify if TM fibre is stable for your area as maxis fibre is making use of TM fibre"

I replied there is no issue with TM fibre so far other than the slowdown when the backbone fibre broke last time.

Then the guy said he will put a remark on their database that my taman area fibre connectivity is stable and that is all.

Something is fishy here.....

i thought 30mbps is RM79 but limited 60GB.

Got that say meh... maybe many years ago SG telco and MY telco got better agreement?
Now dont know how much...haha
Everyone using online call so only emergency call with offline call only..haha

Maybe from this article date start expensive?
many years ago my family always call with 02XXXXXXXX

Iirc, it’s, probably not exact, RM0.10 per 3 seconds. After 7 or 8pm, is there still a reduced rate? About 50% less?
I think JB to SG is cheaper than rest of Malaysia. Is that still the case?

How are you brothers ?

just on curiosity we streaming from netflix server outside of malaysia or its located locally ? Pass 2 months i observered speedtest in netflix tv app did show above 90%..
But this month begining i noticed the speed result from netflix app not consistent.
However speedtest from Tmnet, ookla shows result 80 to 90mb..

I observed the content streaming in netflix the video rate takes time to reach the optimum..
Example HD content stops at 3.31mbps/1080
2160 4k content.. stops.at 11mbps , before this same video can reach 15.36mbps..
When the movie played the bitrate takes time to reach the optimum level, infact i never seen such lagging..

I tested with direct cable connection and 5g wireless both same.
I am not sure this is due to my bandwidth fluctuation or netflix server streaming content itself.

I did complained to UNIFI, they claimed speedtest result in browser are fine no issue and this could be streaming server itself. They did reset my port remotely but still same lag.
I did reported to NETFLIX support team they claimed all good and pointing to ISP.

Is there any chance Tm unifi throttle bandwidth for netflix streaming ?

Is anyone experiancing this kind of issue ?

How to address this kind matter, bandwidth issue or netflix server issue ?

Unifi 100mbps
Wireless router dlink DIR-842 c2
Rj45 cable connection
