Does anyone encounter slowdown in some international websites, including linkedin? Speedtest still shows full speed, local sites load very fast as usual but some international sites are not loading.

I tried to get different IP address and still the same. Is it the submarine cable issue again?

My Digi loads the websites without issue... If submarine cable doesn't that affect every ISP?

Not every isp get the same transit agreement,some isp might having better routing with purchase more than one or two transit agreements and using better or optimized routing for the connectivity.
Like TM always get bullshit transit agreement,so a lot of international routing bandwidth like bullshit one.

Commercial's network always get better service or SLA than consumer's network.
So get a good reputation VPN(Or setup your own server-grade network VPN) might solve a lot of connectivity issue,unless the problem really serious,and the connection between yours and the vpn suddenly shit one,then gg.com.
Like recently OVH SG will getting high latency problem...

Realtime Status for OVH SG can be see at http://sin1-sgcs2.smokeping.ovh.net//smoke...get=APAC.AS4788
And i had reported this problem to OVH,should be solving within few days.

Ah I see, that's new knowledge to me. Thanks for the explanation. Any recommended VPN to use? I don't mind paid ones.
Thanks!

Hello, is anyone having issues with media loading from Twitter lately? I saw on twitter itself that there are complaints on this issue too ? It was much worse with TM and Google dns , bit better on cloudflare but now it is not loading again. Works perfect on 4G
*
Twitter is fine for me but today Reddit is loading like snail... Any other website is totally fine, speed test is at normal speed. On my Digi 4G there's no issue loading Reddit. Unifi is getting worse everyday.

Everyday it's a different website being slow :/

Finally my old apartment has FTTH cable installed by TM, saying goodbye to my good ol' VDSL this Saturday and welcome 300Mbps. Does anyone know what is the latest router provided by TM for 300Mbps package?

I have my own TP-Link C6 and I wonder if it is better than TM's provided one.

All routers provided by TM/Maxis/Time/Digi/Celcom is crap and that TP-Link C6 is also crap
*
Hmm I expected so... My C6 was bought to use for 30mbps (current unifi before upgrading to 300mbps) so no problem with that.

I will route direct LAN cable from router to my PC, wifi is only used for mobile devices that doesn't need full speed. Is the C6 okay for LAN and Wifi at 300Mbps?

Hi, for new unifi installation, does unifi still provides the tplink ac1200 for new installation and is it possible to request for an FWS during installation(by tm) since I’ve heard that TM doesn’t provide FWS anymore
*
Just got my new 300mbps unifi installed last week. I received a Netis router instead. I asked the technician to install my TP-Link C6 instead lol. No more TP-Link provided by TM

I see, installation wise, how does Tm install? I heard that they install fiber cable direct from the pole without any socket anymore, is that true?

I am in high rise building so I am not sure about landed

Noob question : Does all unifi package use fibre?

I upgraded my Streamyx to Unifi 30 mbps and according to the TM staff (not sure if I misheard), they said they will just replace my current Streamyx wire (which is copper). Does that mean I'm getting copper wire for my Unifi? Is that bad?
*
Depends on your building whether it's fibre-ready. My apartment only had copper cable since it's very old, so I have been using 30mbps only on VDSL2 (copper cable) and no issues. Got full speed.

Only recently they installed fibre, then they will pull the fibre cable even though you're taking only 30mbps (should be lah, cuz they can ask you upgrade in the future).

You can check if your building already has the white unifi fibre box. Better just ask the technician when he comes to install.

Is anyone facing a slowdown on Unifi ? Using wired only can get 160mbps on 800mbps connection suddenly. Reset and still same. YouTube videos also loading slow, fortnite ping 300+ on Middle East
*
I had similar issue few days ago but not sure is it the same. I am on 300mbps package and speedtest/fast.com shows only 150-160mbps. However direct download speed I am getting full 300mbps (40+- MB/s); only speed test is slow.

Resetting router didn't help. HOWEVER! I disabled the ethernet adapter and enabled again, it worked like charm, not sure why. It is repeatable because the next day it happened again, and disabling-enabling the adapter worked. My wifi connection wasn't affected though.

I see! Is the connection stable? I mainly use my internet to play online games and stream movies only so I care more about consistency

yeah it became stable but still once in a while (maybe every few days or few weeks) will disconnect once. After all it's old copper cable.

Now I upgraded to fibre 300mbps for 2 weeks already and it's very stable.

Smart, the answer is yes, just keep in mind that it will be in total of 100 Mbps, unless your router is 1 Gbps. icon_rolleyes.gif

And plug in from LAN port to LAN port is to avoid going through CPU processing(also avoid double NAT), so the cpu will be in powersave and only WiFi+LAN chipset are running most of the time.
It sound like the Ethernet adapter causing interference of the PCI-E processing, and yes, it can happen.

For example, my laptop because of louzy Qualcomm WiFi chipset, it wake up the CPU Package constantly and using 10 watt for nothing.
I had try to forcing it into powersave while nothing is transferred(found hidden registry value on inf), but it will buggy, and it is just like saving 1% instead of 99% using Intel WiFi chipset.

There is also same for the Qualcomm Ethernet, the solution is simple like yours, enable and disable again kick it back into power saving mode.
But now as I just leave it as enable, so it is no longer a issues.(how stupid I am, thinking disable might more power save) laugh.gif

Here is the Task Scheduler's task that I created and modified to disable then enable, just give you la. thumbsup.gif
You can also using Notepad to open it before import into Task Scheduler, just for safety la. tongue.gif

It is performing as below.

When logon into any user, it will using SYSTEM account, running netsh "interface set interface "Ethernet" DISABLED", netsh "interface set interface "Ethernet" ENABLE".

---
And yes, the Ethernet chipset also buggy after I disable and enable by modifying those Offload task feature, so it is very buggy indeed. sweat.gif
*
Thanks for the task scheduler script! So far I haven't encountered this issue anymore since last week, I removed my custom IP address and DNS (use router to set DNS now) and it hasn't happened again. Though I am not sure if that was the actual course.

Maybe some apps keep obtaining information related to network/hardware and causing issues. hmm.gif

Also it is better to set the DNS at router level and providing the DNS server IP address directly by DHCP and stateless DHCP/SLAAC for v6 etc, so some feature like Private DNS in Android works automatically.
Because if you set it at system level, it might failed if the device trying to open login page after connected to certain WiFi hotspot like UniFi@WiFi.

Can also assign static IPv4 address in router, just bind the IPv4 address to your computer's network card MAC address. icon_rolleyes.gif
*
Oh I never thought about assigning IPv4 address in the router! Thanks for the tip smile.gif Definitely a more elegant solution!

Not even 1 month since installation of Unifi my modem's LOS light is blinking red today and can't connect to internet suddenly. Live chat reset my port and not solved. Already lodged a report to get technician to check, but what could be the issue here? Should I be worried about prolonged disconnection? sad.gif

No, it's Fibre cable issue from outside your house. Ask them fix and check Fibre cable properly.

I think so.. after 24 hours it's not back to normal by itself. TM hasn't done anything yet, as expected for a weekend. Not sure when my internet access will be back since tomorrow onwards working days, can't be at home to wait for technician.. sigh

Just saw the latest few pages about the promo.. My 300Mbps just subscribed few months ago at full price RM199 + SST, so my contract still have 1.5 years+.. Is there any chance I can change to the RM139 plan? No way?
