Still kinda surprised that mmWave is not widely used in Asia, even Lion City currently only using 257/258 on SIMBA. But iPhones/Androids with mmWave all only have 260/261 (Except Pixels as far as I know)

Hopefully with the new iPhone 15 Pro (Which looks like mmWave is gonna be all the models(?)), with Ericsson working with DNB we'll get mmWave 5G in MY

5G was designed to overcome wireless congestion unlike 4G.

It includes many additional security features, beamforming, resource allocation/network virtual slicing, etc. which makes it very much more efficient that it used to be with 4G.

DNB once guaranteed that even with the weakest signal of just 1-bar strength, 5G can still perform >100mbps on downloads.

This is the thing

Build tower > Why you build too near the housing area

No build tower > Why my mobile phone no signal

Browsing Chinese local news can surely see this kind of news once in a while

The problem is... in city or high density area where got place to build tower far from houses

At kampung can la... few km away inside the jungle

Hmm. How long do u using Allo? Mine just end contract month ago.

Previously, what package did you subscribe to? 100Mbps?

When I received a speed upgrade from 100Mb/s to 300Mb/s in January 2025, Allo provided a new router. After that, my Deco M4R stopped working.

The same thing happened again when I terminated the old account and registered a new one. Curious, I checked the settings on Allo’s router and found it was configured to use PPPoE.

That’s when I realized why the M4R wasn’t working. I called their support line to request the PPPoE credentials, entered them into the M4R settings—and just like that, it was up and running again.

But hey, since the internet is solely for my in-laws—who only use it for watching TV and WhatsApp video calls—no harm done.

Not sure why they switched from IPoE to PPPoE—it seems like a questionable move.

Good catch. Noticed my bill still says City Broadband which explains why I'm still on IPOE. Will take note of this if they offer any free upgrade once my contract is up later this month.

Also noticed the old City Broadband, they offered symmetric 1Gbps plan. Now after the Allo rebrand, their 1Gbps plan is not longer symmetric with just 500Mbps upload.

Hi Allo users, some feedback would be really helpful
TM has been having congestion issues for the past few days/weeks whatever
Any of you facing the same thing on Allo as well? Eg slow website loading from evening onwards (Twitter, Youtube, Netflix, Disnet+), high ping?
If not, hows the overall experience when using allo?

Thanks for the feedback
How about payment portal? Is it still as bad as before?

Can pay with Jompay?

Oh come on Allo
Previous email claims fibre reading too high, repair ETA 5 days
Now no ETA at all????
If this is how you run your business then habis lah...

Not like I have other options around, especially when the early termination fees are sky high
I know they hired a bunch of contractors to expand their infra in Batu Pahat recently, so they still have the intention to push their service through Johor
However, the lack of technicians scares me
I dont mind occasionnal outtage, it would still be better than having congestion every single night
Still, the slow responses to everything kinda....

Ok...today's installation kena cancelled because installer waiting for new router and ONU
I dont know how many people will have my patience to deal with them

Yeah
I changed to public IP yesterday afternoon, and they gave me a different PPPoE profile to test
Supposed to be 3 days, then they will give me a call for confirmation

Using this with PPPOE atm
Not sure about the switch TBH, but the installer told me for all the new subscribers (in Johor at least) will be on PPPoE
Peformance wise, I can get around 930Mbps max with this ONU
Runs a bit hot as well, and really lightweight
