May I know you live in which TMN ？😂

If really want to wait whole menglembu fully complete set up，then why open for apply now 😂⋯⋯ but as I know， Astro plan one already start to install⋯ because I saw a house in TMN sentosa there install already😂

Taman Wang

Some of the isp like to open early for apply maybe is because they afraid other customer will subscribe to other isp? I don't know, it just a guess

Better call and get in touch with their Perak team directly handling the project.

Not sure if you managed to get the contacts of the people responsible for the Perak side but here's a few FB pages with their contacts:

These are the few areas sandwiched between Wisma TNB, Jln. Lahat and Taman Pengkalan Perdana which many areas are still served under copper Streamyx lines. When TM found out TNB was actively expanding through them, they quickly park a few FDPs just to fill in the parking spaces and chase them away saying that those Taman is under them so TNB cannot expand there.

Non of these tamans were fiberized or could subscribe to TM Unifi even until early 2020 before the MCO took place.

They are circled in blue areas. Orange areas are already served by TNB Allo and opened for registration already.

As you can see the distance of these blue circled areas are just ~2km from the Wisma TNB at Jln. Lahat.

You can't reach Papan, Lahat or (Tmn. Pengkalan Perdana)Station 18 without passing these areas.

my friend said ：the exchange station is not at wisma tnb but more to menglembu side

Same here... Taman Wang, still waiting new ISP... Maxis, City or Astro? With phone line as well.

Ah yes, they are using one of those converted shipping container box converted into modular datacentre which houses the OLT equipments and servers like those by Google Fiber, NTT and Time Fibre is using.

That area looks like the Kawasan Perusahaan Menglembu site(industrial lots with blue roofing) which is facing the main Lahat road opposite AEON Big Falim which is even nearer to Kg Pasir Putih/Sg Pari just across the Kinta River which separates the 2 locations.

Coming from Lahat Road, at the intersection, straight willl take you to AEON, left will take you to the industrial site where the datacentre is located just next to a substation.

Direct line distance should be about 1.5km only.

is there any way that we can supply info to allobroadband or citybroadband that our kg/taman no fiber so they could take the task and fiber that area. so that TM will lose their location/customer in future.

so far i have contact them in fb and also request via MCMC too. i also have request via website too.


hopefully they will listen.

may I know ，is allo fibre gt any related with the unifi cable？ because I saw a FB post ，some user said any fibre in Malaysia still need to connect unifi one at the end?

If you living in same taman as me I'm sure u got the leaflet from maxis right? You might consider subscribe to maxis plan, because their voice plan only need to add RM10 for every month and free voice call without extra charge. While CBB charge you extra RM20 for every month and voices call are charge with low rates at RM0.08/MIN. Low IDD call rates for international call. You can look for the maxis leaflet because I already don't know where I throw the leaflet.

I don't think allo and TM got any related as candy12 mention, their cable is different color. Unifi cable is yellow stripe while allo is orange stripe. Previously post candy12 also got said that unifi play dirty trick here are the comment that I copy from candy12 <<When TM found out TNB was aggressively expanding their Allo fibre coverage, they quickly went to these areas and install just 1-2 boxes of FDP on every 3-5 lanes just to impose their dominance and occupy the "parking space" to prevent TNB from expanding their network there to avoid infra overlapping.>> So I don't think Unifi and allo related, I might be wrong who knows.





Unrelated
Here is what they provide for router and ONT
https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid...107416021063444
The ONT seems very mini compare to unifi one

Yup, maxis fibre will recommend when compare with CBB. At outside of your House installation maybe still need CBB to operate and provide you the huawei modem, after maxis will give you the router (TP link) and a 4G sim card to you

Nothing at all is related. From your home/office to TNB's exchange datacentre's OLT, from there routed back to the respective ISP's main national gateway all is independent from Unifi.

Even if they need to rent TM's unused cable that's just Layer 1 dark fiber the other port that hooks up the other side is still owned by the individual ISP.

See how dirty they are? Not only they want to dominate areas but refuse to expand their service, they start telling lies that everyone else has to connect through them on social media channels.

From the picture and the size of the modem it's a Huawei EchoLife EG8010H Mini ONU(fibre modem).
Green colored port means it's using APC connector instead of the cheaper blue colored PC type that is supplied by TM.

As you can see this is how a true OPEN network provider works. All ISPs who are on the TNB Allo network is given EQUAL treatment. If the ISP wants to provide fixed voice call service, they have to provide you a router model of their own which has phone ports on it.

Not like TM wholesale, only their Unifi voice service can directly plug into the ONU, other ISP must provide their own router with phone ports.



Not bad selection and choice, from TNB. They want to follow Google's Fiber Jack model design.
Though it has only 1 Gigabit Ethernet port, you won't be sharing the same ONT with more than 1 ISP which TM Wholesale also do not allow such arrangement.

The design is actually better thought of than Google Fiber's own Fiber Jack modem which is slimmer and awkward in design because the Ethernet port and power socket is located on the upside of the box while the APC fibre port is at the bottom.



Price wise, I think the 1Gbps plan offered by City Broadband even competes directly with Google Fiber at RM199 which is less than USD$50 for a symmetrical 1Gbps line.

From my experience and just an advise, home fixed line on FTTH is quite troublesome. There are so many choices now with prepaid mobile lines that come with unlimited call plans why need a home fixed line?

The reason why I say this is because I'm now paying an extra RM10 for a fixed line which I rarely use. Why not save the money and get a higher speed plan instead like the symmetrical 100M plan for same price?

Maxis plans are more expensive RM89 for 30M symmetrical only and you need to top-up another RM10 for a fixed line with unlimited local calls which is RM99/mth.

Also because my fibre modem, router and cordless phone is plugged into the same multi adapter, when I power cycle modem devices, all the time/date settings on my cordless phone all will be RESET!

You see the thing is this, ISPs do not want to get themselves messed up in the same taman/housing garden because in the end they'll have to fight over which lorong/road belongs to who or who.

End up how to win the argument?

So they tell each other whoever starts servicing the taman/housing garden first gets to park there and dominate.

Google Fiber also faced the same problem across many cities in USA during their build-outs. When they started fiber laying, AT&T started to beat them to it and sell their fibre services around the same pricing as them locking the neighborhood down with service contracts.

But competition is US and Japan is very fierce. Google Fiber, KDDI, and Sony Nuro were still expanding and overlapping those areas which has incumbent telcos already servicing the areas with FTTH. People were still switching and waited for them because they offered CHEAPER, MORE RELIABLE and TRUSTED services and also they were sicked/fed up of the being monopolized by the incumbent traditional telcos that provided them lousy services for so many years.

Just like why many still preferred to choose Time Fibre instead of Unifi when both telcos are available in the same building?

So sad that I can't apply for fiber because of my father, when ask for upgrade he will say such thing as "Why upgrade? For you guys to game faster?" And also he didn't like drilling in the home. SMH. Guess I'll stuck with 4mbps

time fibre is preferred because unifi only offer vdsl for many tall building but time has ftth

4mbps quite fast ⋯ nvm，you can find a job and register under your name in the future⋯ Gambateh😗

Ah yes, this must be the green color you talk about
