This TNB Allo is actually that Tenaga TNB?

Yes, TNB also entering telco business now. It's bigger company than even TM.

As electricity utility company, they're now building fibre optics network around the country.

Soon tm will zaplap cz of tnb

Thanks for the explanation. I'm in Ipoh Garden. Sad my area is not covered by Allo too. I hope they'll expand their coverage as well as other ISPs

main telco and power supply always own by gov.

They're slowly expanding but it'll take time many areas in Ipoh still not covered. They will cover areas where now still under copper telephone and TM has not launched Unifi yet to avoid double overlap.

If your housing garden(taman) already got TM Unifi just that a particular road isnt' serve with a FDP, this areas will also not be prioritized.

They'll first cover areas where TM totally neglected and hasn't built fibre infra there yet.

We have areas just directly opposite the road of TNB's Perak HQ at Jalan Lahat and Jalan Bendahara also do not have coverage yet. Their expansion seem very slow and now with the economy like this, it'll even be delayed longer.

Let the project mature first with more ISPs joining in. Now only got one ISP to choose only which is Astro Broadband. They force bundling of ASTRO TV service with it that's why very few sign ups.The price quite competitive 50M symmetrical for RM99, TM cannot compete with this.

Got another TNB Allo ISP not yet come in which is City Broadband, their reference pricing is internet only 100M for RM99. If they come in sure sapu all.

Information from Newspaper said，TNB allo will extend his services to silibin and papan after Menglembu area...
Second stage will extend to Botani, Ampang area

These are southern sections of Ipoh city then. Pasir Putih is sandwich between TNB HQ at Jln. Lahat and Botani.

Time Broadband, Perak operations centre is at First Garden nearby Silibin. If you've been there before you will see they use shipping containers to build their exchange centre like those from Google.

Actually I from Menglembu, and waiting the ISP open for apply services, wish this fibre will stable and fast

Still very premature at this time. Only got 1 ISP to choose from which is Astro Broadband. Also the maintenance not really good, over last few days heavy rain poured. Some of the tree branches fell on the fibre cables but TNB didn't remove.Not good impression for TNB staffs.

Yup，Astro dealer hv approach my
House for promote this broadband services， but I prefer City broadband which also under TNB, the price more worth than other ISP , So need to wait until July or August

What I understand is a lot lof areas still haven't setup the FDP box on the poles. It'll take some time. Now only pulling the fibre. The fibre cables very easy to identify got special color coding not yellow stripes like older TM ones.

The fibre cable is black in color with orange patches(black-orange-black-orange blocks/tompok).

RM99 for 100M symmetrical



*Cheaper than Time Broadband because serving landed homes.

The boxes already install behind my house during MCO⋯ so just waiting announcement from City Broadband when can apply only⋯

I definitely hope it will come to my area as soon as possible, been stucked at 4mbps for ages. By the way, my area is in Ipoh Garden

Give it 1-2 years for the expansion to take place, now post MCO Malaysia's economy is struggling.

Many bachelors still prefer to go on no contract deals because of no commitments while many are still on fixed line contracts won't be able to take up new offers because being tied.

Now only got 1 ISP offering its service on this network, more to come.

From my understanding. TNB is the 1 that provide physical infrastructure like laying fibre and connecting it to houses.

But the services is openup to multiple player such as Astro maxis, city broadband and etc.

yup，basically you are right⋯ but until now， we not sure hv any other ISP or not and what is the deal between allo and astro? maybe contract only allow Astro ISP in Menglembu？ So we need to wait the official announcement ...

Just received call from promoter， Now can apply maxis ⋯

@Candy12 I tried to apply for Maxis Fibre but their Customer Service called to say that after checking with their Maxperts, even though my area has fibre cables, because I’m in a low-rise building the management needs to contract them or Unifi to install the cables first. There’s already someone holding the rights to do the installation cos she said Maxis is blocked from checking further - not sure what she means by this.
