Building management said they came and gave like a proposal of sort, from what I heard its like a receiver type deal and then fiber connection to the individual apartments.

Anyone heard of them?

ifiber?

In the paper its written Gigabit Fiber Sdn Bhd.

Same team ... good concept

No website ?

It's www.gigabit-fiber.com
It's basically a placeholder though, there is no info.
There is no marketing or anything it's like suddenly appears out of nowhere.

look like they are finding new supporter. jobstreet

i though ifiber too. seem the website legit but not shown launch yet.

Got the same provider coming in to my condo. No details can be found for this. And wonder if using this kind of ISP will have security risk?

dont like legit ISP you can trust

Not exactly that's the website. Gigabit Fiber is under JV Communication.
Any sifu can elaborate what is the worst thing can happen if we were to use "unknown" ISP? Data breach?

They have to be licensed by the MCMC as an ASP to provide ISP services

Opting for small unknown ISPs is a big risk to take.

Unlike large ISPs which has the capacity to handle large traffics with good international routing, small ISPs cannot cope well if they have large number of subscribers. You need massive funds to buy bandwidth and peering won't help if you cannot contribute back sufficient bandwidth to your partners.

The only large local ISPs that have good international connectivity in this country are TM, Time, Maxis, Celcom and DiGi. Each of them have their own good points depending on which part of the continents you would like to access frequently. For example: DiGi is good for European sites/contents but their China connectivity is among the lousiest.

By the way Gigabit Fiber sounds similar to one local hosting company called Gigabit Hosting. Are they the same company? If yes, please avoid.
Even connecting locally, my VPN is using one of their servers. Ping is still tolerable but bandwidth and speed like using Streamyx/ADSL when surfing even Asian servers despite connecting to the VPN with a fibre line. It is that lousy. Not sure what will happen when their subscribers grow will they oversell their lines?

I am staying in Penang. My management was approached by Gigabit Fibre Sdn Bhd sales personnel too. They said the internet is through satellite and then fibre to home. Is this company legitimate or illegal, does this company have licence to operate as a Internet Service Provider in Malaysia?

BTW, the address of this company is the same as JV Communication.

Edit: I found this company at this page: https://www.mcmc.gov.my/en/legal/registers/...keyword=Gigabit
