i'm never look for automatic update on any item when it's come with any firmware/software update, i check by manual way go through on by one website. yeah, need more time to see the whole things.

tp-link bad because they didn't make the global/international firmware, lack firmware support, usually they make firmware for 1 year and half. Then, they upgrade the hardware version again and again just like car manufactured make 1 same model of car but come with more than 3 series of upgrading a bit like add sporty thing, add a little bit of specs and make a leather seat. doh.gif

That main reason problem for tp-link firmware support not consistent and not make it universal. Some of region have, but other region don't have but users still can upgrade the firmware if they rajin to find out the firmware by manually way. Even it's cheaper but it's lack of firmware support.

What advantage that you notice after switching to better router compared to TM ones?

What about the modem itself? Also need to change?
*
modem cannot changed but if broken or damage you need to call tm, they will changed it for you, lifetime warranty.

advantage
-got better speed and stable connection
-freely upgrading the firmware without stuck tm router firmware
-no more wifi name @unifi

usually default router they will use for extra ap or backup router. tm firmware can be flashed to original firmware if you followed the right way. But for me better used other router than default one.

sweat.gif in what situation we need a fan for router? actually previously my AC68U kinda hot also, hand can touch it but it just feels hot, it wont burn our hand laugh.gif
new router will be better right? shouldnt need to put addtinal fan, usually what causes the router become hot?  hmm.gif wireless transmission? continuosly braodcast signal? or serving more client?

I have make some testing during non-stop wifi switch on and wifi schedule mode on. The temperature can be more increase if someone using wifi at that time with pc/laptop lan, especially streaming by using wifi 38-42.8 celcius. if using wifi that time without using pc/laptop lan temperature is decrease a bit 36-39.5 celcius. If I make wifi automatic off period of time without using Lan, temperature can be 34-37 celcius, depend of room temperature too during that day. If wifi is off, but Lan is using temperature can be 36-39.5 celcius only.

My friend house taman area got similar case to you. Because his lorong area got 2 white fiber box only but have 5 tiang, but got 24 houses in same lorong. doh.gif During his first day of unifi installation tm technician need to setup at first white fiber box because second white fiber box very very far away from his house. In first white fiber box, got 1 left port for him. He felt happy for just 1 year only no disconnection, until second year until now, every month in a year at least 1 or twice happen, he will get this problem. Why? got another neighbour installed new fiber too at his lorong, maxis. Last week that white fiber box got problem, tm technician came and check, that box fiber box got bad damage because got cincai technician not closed the box perfectly. Tm changed to new one, during that time 10 houses cannot using internet and phone, including him. lolz. If he got this problem again, he will know again someone unplugged his fiber port out.

Shortcut until the max.. shakehead.gif
Perhaps maybe that day too peak (Due to too many appointment schedule to install unifi), then cincai cincai do.. As long as you receive internet connections then job is done.

Quality job 0%, internet connections up 90%, Stability (internet) 10%... Call to TM if still got issued.
That's their standard procedure.

they should add on more for that box. I wonder why, they didn't do that thing until now. TM really concern when its come for burning a bit their own cost.

Sorry sorry for all... notworthy.gif  I overlook the bottom modem already. bangwall.gif
I just look across and saw the orange color router only. sweat.gif

But after I look carefully the picture, there is Huawei modem bottom there. It is purely fiber FTTH.
But how come TM give like this orange color router? Look like this router brand is Netlis (I don't know spelling correct or not, don't shoot me 1st.. unsure.gif )

But normally I saw some ppl living in apartment, Flat and those high-rise building, using this type of orange router.
Yes, I admit myself I see wrongly, it is not VDSL but it is FTTH.

The statement you mentioned is not true at all. ONE of my friend who live the landed house (we called terrace house) using the VDSL..
Sound like fiber, but check carefully with my friend during CNY using Unifi Lite 10Mbps (That one is previously name of the package).. If simple word, that is streamyx 10mbps.. dry.gif

Same as the picture just now only the orange color router type, but there is no Huawei ONT modem.. That's crapped of TM mentioned that my friend's area NOT GOING for FTTH future project. (Behind reason I'm not sure why lah~)

I don't think so TM not providing TP-Link or D-Link anymore. Perhaps it might be shortage of router, so you are the nasib buruk give you this shit router with "Unifi" logo..

If you have such a bit budget brows.gif , that's the best you spend for purchase ASUS router one.. No one can beat from TP-Link and D-Link.
*
Indeed, a few landed area still got and using VDSL technology. Only a few of landed area had been migrate from VDSL to fiber but it's take long time tm fully changed its.

upload speed either 10 or 20Mbps, mostly 20Mbps. My neighbour using 50Mbps package from 30Mbps, but he is special case. By the way, that is in landed area but at low cost terrace area.

will be fishy either price will reverted to original after 24Months or 1 year, or for new subscribers only or for certain selected area only. 100Mbps & 30Mbps existing users might burn if this package really launch soon. Price not bad for both of speed.

When tm launch the upsizing promo ....

the 50M plan , upload is 10M only .

Don't know if they change upload to 20M or not.
*
if i'm not mistaken they launch upsizing promo package on year that come with RM79, 30Mbps too. Some of low cost flat or condo users have been offer to 50Mbps package with 20Mbps upload but that different case during free speed upgrade era and unsatisfactory users made termination fever end of year 2017 era. Tm offer that speed for them with RM99.

2)unifi 30M--30M(dl) /10M(ul)--rm89 .Contract 24 months.

3)unifi 50M---50M(dl) /10M(ul)--rm99 .Contract 24 months.

tm installer asked me to choose which plan i like .I choose 30M plan.
If 50M plan upload was 20M during that time , i already subscribe it.
I am not happy now.    vmad.gif

my neighbour package speed 50Mbps download & 20Mbps upload when tm point offer for him because he want to terminate his streamyx package, then after a few months later 30Mbps package launch first that price RM89, then 30Mbps with quota and lastly upsizing promo 30Mbps & 50Mbps speed but upload speed 10Mbps both of package.

Yesterday TM staff came to my house to sign up my new Unifi Plan.
I asked about this promo also. He said need to pay more actually got T&C, he didnt go into details.
But for new Unifi plan, they offer 1 month free usage, even if u r existing Streamyx user upgrade to Unifi, thats the only offer for now.
*
1 month free already official publish in their website. But this another one promotion ads still hanging around; but this one had been answered by someone in here, for certain area only. I suspect they will came out another promotion ads soon before they launch another new official package.

This is normal procedure when want to change the package speed. You will have a few times of interruption, in your account will update new package soon. Speed upgrade first then new package will be changed. Did they told you about the next bill?

They switch from their side first. If failed many times then tm technician will come to your home for double check what is going on. The worst part, my friend experience tm technician exchange old btu to new one because it's failed for reconnect back with auth got problem, the tm server side make a minor mistake that dragged for two weeks to settle the problem. Why? first, he need to use for normal unifi package then tm will switch to real deal package for him as deal during he applied through tm point. 1 week use for normal package and another week for switch package. Second, during that time of upgrade two weeks have a public holiday. After a few argument, then he finally got his package. So, blame on tm remote side ya. Make a tiny mistake, then drag many days without said sorry.

worth for do a lot of video conferencing, i remember my ex boss upgrade his home internet speed to 800Mbps. Tm technical team ask him, why he want that speed. He mention because he do a lot of video conferencing, plus his sons playing online games most of times besides live streaming, watching youtube, torrenting and uploading the high quality video and files. He done setup his home networking by himself because he have an experience working from different telco company. I wonder what kind of setup and hardware he using its right now. hmm.gif

I'm not sure what is their TnC, but they secretly offer this kind of deal for the selected customers is indeed an unfair practice.
If they are secretly offering this kind deal, I want the same, if not will move forward to file another report.
They are checking with the manager, will get back to me on Monday.

indeed, plus selected area and freshly customer. Just keep digging the info.

That's the problem you see. They selectively offering this kind of deal for potential new customers.
What about existing customers? New customer that signup for Unifi? Streamyx user?
All the different pricing and they are focusing user to renew their contract every 2 years.

Many streamyx users are still paying expensive bill with slow and unstable internet speed.
RM69, RM79, RM89? Paying for the price with the speed in between of 2M-8M.
Some reported they are paying higher for only 4Mbps.

what they offer for Unifi Users.

RM89            30Mbps
RM89+RM10  50Mbps (force you to renew 2yrs contract)

RM129          100Mbps
RM199          300Mbps

Some of the forumer share they are getting 800Mbps for less than RM200, good for them.


Now please take a look what they offer for Maxis Fiber Users instead

RM39             30Mbps
RM79             100Mbps
RM149           300MBps

Is this unfair business practice? YES.
Are they treating loyal customer like a cash cow? YES
Is the monopoly National ISP secretly giving sepcial rate to different customer acceptable? Absolutely F*cking Not.

Internet is an essential needs, with the pandamic happened it become more obvious.
This is not okay. I don't think we should tolerate this kind of of BS anymore.
*
These are the problem parts TM like playing for a long time until present day. Really like to mix the price ingredients. from starting streamyx era jom jimat or whatever package name that cheaper price then come to unifi price. Mix price again. Why not changed strategy fixed or auto revise all subscribers to latest price like done by maxis and other ISP related. When they played this game they put their own trapped. So, it's very hard right now to fix the price for all their subscribers whether existing and new one because some of us got cheaper and expensive paid that really mind blowing. Their promotion ads also will put their own trapped too with fishy terms and conditions not cleary one.
