i hope allo faster expand their coverage at kedah only

Whoa. Which part of Kedah are you staying at?
Damn, Kedah fibre infrastructure is absolutely shit.

SUNGAI PETANI many taman until now only got streamyx only

You have gotta be kidding me wer.
SP and no fibre?
TM can really go die la

Damn, that useless SP branch manager sure is full of shit.

Sungai Petani had a OPEN Fibre network which was among the earliest in the country but FAILED miserably there. That was the reason why TM skipped many tamans in Sungai Petani. It ran fibres also on TNB utility poles

The company was called Fiber@Home which used Active P2P fibre connection instead of Passive GPON back then.
Its HQ was based at Bandar Laguna Merbok and they even had registration counters set up at mamak restaurants to do bill payments and registrations.

One of the ISP they wanted to set up was called Halal Internet besides Celcom Axiata, Maxis, Jaring and Astro just like Allo today.









Don't know what happened to that company in Sungai Petani already today. It failed miserably due to lack of take up and the company just went down the drain maybe sold off.

All happened during BN era. They even wanted to expand to all the other Muslim states in Malaysia such as Terengganu, Kelantan etc. but didn't had Perak in the picture until PH government stepped in with Gobind and his team finally taking notice of Penang and Perak.

I LOLed hard at the halal Internet part.

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.

That was the humble beginnings of TNB entry into the fibre network business years back.
The company was called Fiber at Home City Networks Sdn. Bhd.

Bandar Laguna Merbok, Sungai Petani was selected as its pilot test site for the company. It used Active P2P fibre technology which was very costly to implement back in the earlier days.

Each home needs to run a direct fibre strand right up to the ISP's exchange office/cabinet, meaning if there's 100 homes to cover each home will need a dedicated 100 strand of fibre all the way to the exchange with each ISP having their own equipment in there so neither of them needed to share the same infra using Layer 3 via VLAN packet switching.

Despite all the promising technology it had, the project failed as this kind of setup only works best with short loops maybe to the internet riser/datacentre inside an office/apartment complex such as i-City in Shah Alam.To implement it for landed homes is a hell to even imagine.

Really like this many taman until got streamyx only my home also got streamyx only them always says no budjet to upgrade fibre infrastructure

This company so crazy halal internet hahaha 😓

IEEE's EPON is a competing passive optical network technology to ITU's GPON. Active Ethernet is more similar to LAN using point to point



This is how a 48-ports Active Ethernet switch. If say got 2000 homes to serve in each housing area/taman, how many of this you'll need when each home needs a dedicated pair of fibre all the way to the exchange office?

FIBER@HOME Sungai Petani, A Vision Realised Back in 2012
https://malaysiafiber.blogspot.com/2012/11/...n-realised.html



They are using TNB electricity poles to carry the their fibre to homes.







What happened to this company in Sungai Petani, Kedah?

Are they going to sell all their infra to TNB and overhaul it for GPON os they'll be continuing with Active Ethernet?

coming soon？

Ipoh and Perak sure made it far from where it was back in 2012 during the past BN rule.
We came from no where and our city was not even in the expansion maps until PH took over.

As you can see here back during then(2012), Ipoh was not even on the Malaysian fibre expansion map.





Today here is what Ipoh has achieved:

Malaysian Cities Internet Speed Ranking
https://testmy.net/rank/country/my.down/100



It showed how racists, biased and prejudiced the previous government before PH was.

Lmao Halal internet? That make me giggle like a child. Can they come up with a better name? No wonder fail so miserable

I think is related to ampang, gunung rapat and forgot the if the other two.

Also I noticed at the speedtest site got one unknown ISP now testing its line in Ipoh with speeds above 300Mbps to Singapore server.

Anyone heard of the company called VC Telecom before?

https://testmy.net/city/ipoh_my

https://testmy.net/hoststats/allo_technology_sdn_

I know they are not related and Allo Technology test results doesn't contribute to Ipoh, it's regarded as based in Cyberjaya. So if you're using Allo and perform speed tests there, you're only helping Cyberjaya to push their speeds ranking.

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

Today bunch of Uxxfx promoter come to our Tmn to promote their product.

They can piss off after losing so much customer then only come to promote their shit.

Don't piss them, later they go cut cable😂😂
