Should reply you within a week if i'm not mistaken. I think they will send an Acknowledge Email before send you the response.
It is kinda scripted, but at least you can ask for details.

Thinking of an App to crowd sources these informations

As Soon as i mention why TM not countering Allo with slashing price and higher speed, They Immediately offer 500 and 800Mbps line packages lol.
But at around Rm200+ and 300+ for 500 and 800Mbps compared to 139 at allo and 199 for 1Gbps is a definite far cry

They can only counter it with add on such as their TV packages and so on.

I Just realized that UxxFx Cap their upload speed at 200Mbps for their higher plans
So.
DL/UL speed for each plans is

100/50
300/50
500/200
800/200

Honestly that makes no sense for me to go above 100 if i still get the same upload speed for 300Mbps plan. Not all services can fully saturate a 300Mbps line.

On top of that for 500Mbps you have to pay for the TV box which you have no use if you have an existing provider.

Either they still operating on the mindset that DL>UL or they just don't know what they are doing.

Signs of Desperation plan to me. Kind of like Jack of all Trade, Master of none.

Honestly for anything over 100Mbps, Maxis Fiber seems to be a better value.

Although knowing Maxis, I think there's FUP apply for their Fiber as well? (Something like 300GB Quota and No P2P and Public IP as well)

Wonder if anyone knows the Capacity of each FDC can provide?
Saw a new FDC being build just behind my house. Not sure will it be the FDC i will be connecting to as the location is a little bit odd.
Generally It's Users -> FDP -> FDC -> Exchange is that correct?

Interesting, Thanks for the Information on the capacity for the FDC , If i Assume each port that is from the 288 port is for each back street lane (where the 1:8 Splitter conversion happen)
it will definitely have enough to cover quite a large Taman. So the only constraint will be the fiber length which from my understanding could deploy either underground or aerial.

It's hard to gauge which FDP are connected to which FDC in my area as i often saw FDP that are connected to an existing FDC thats around 1-2KM away.


Another question is that if the ISP wish to provide more bandwidth to each users, they would just need to swap out the Equipment (OLT?) in the Exchange station
and would not need to change out the cabling like existing ADSL/VDSL did?

Wow, Something Interesting just happen today.

Just as a recap, i have been lurking here for quite sometime complaining about the lack of Fiber in my area despite being surrounded by it.
There has been update from Tx Contractor trying to pull fibers as quick as possible and it's speculated that it's a move to counter TNB Allo Expansion.

Well today I got a message from contractor that TNB Allo will be available in my Taman and ask me details for subscriptions. So it makes sense now why their competitors are moving so
fast now after 10 years delay.

Perhaps...Ini kali lah to switch ISP

Apparently TNB Allo Used the Electrical Pole for their expansion like they shown in the video?
I thought they will have dedicated Telecom Pole like Tx for Fiber lines.

But that will give them advantage on expanding quickly i think.

Yeah, I hope it's not some Contractor give me some false promise. Even if i'm gonna wait for fiber might as well wait for Allo.
Especially the withdrawal fees from Tx 2 year contract from is bit ridiculous.

Haven't seen any activity from the Allo Contractor team. Wonder how long will it take to deploy their fiber if they are using the electrical pole.

I see, I think that page got mention that new area will be using Electrical Pole rather than newly lay pole( presumably to reduce deployment time).
And i'm thinking are they doing that to bypass pulling underground cable from the FDC as well?



I will scout for Allo Fiber Activities around my area and update in this thread. although i'm not sure what i'm looking for as i think the fiber is not color coded ?

Yeah, The contractor just said it will be available this year which means it will be ready by the end of Q4.
I will keep looking for their activities and update here

I seem to have notice that their FDC is always in front of their Electrical Substation? Probably a good place to look out?

I see, There's a TNB Substation literally right outside my house. So i will keep on eye on that

What is the converted Shipping Container for? You mean for housing the central Fiber Equipment? (I don't know what's the right terminology, Exchange center?)

I believe i saw a Tender for TNB ALLO Seri Rapat. Maybe that's where they put their central fiber equipment

Yeah I also saw that yesterday and share it. Not sure why they remove it (Probably too early and still sorting some details ?)
But the fact that they post it means that it's should be official for my Taman. So will wait for ALLO rather than TM now

From what i heard is that the agents are not supposed to have pre-registration when the infra are not finalized yet (which as they said could be ready by the end of this year)
Hence they remove it for not ( They only have list of Taman to Cover, but not the exact road listing and all that)

Great for Business, but not sure how an average home user will utilize it.

I have the opportunity of trying out 500Mbps TIME connection and most of my download hardly exceed the 300mbps mark. (Limitation on most Uplink I guess)

Now if i were to host my own server than that will be a different story

I literally LOL at that, Unless they do Deep Packet Inspection or have similar mechanism like China Great Firewall . Otherwise Most will just change DNS or VPN the traffic to bypass I guess

Active P2P Fiber is similar to EPON? Theoretically better but very hard to scale and expensive to maintain it as well.
Probably that's why they failed I guess.

Saw bunch of pole are being stockpile at Taman Cempaka. Presumably its for Allo and might get shared with Taman Ampang.
