Their official launch is supposed to be 1st quarter 2021 alongside Penang, Johor and Kedah according to the news. But since infra already up maybe they're unofficially taking customers first to earn some revenues and expand further?

If you want your picture to appear in the post, place your image linke like this:

Dah boleh apply?

Kg sg rokam.

still checking now， means no installation now⋯😞

Sad case. Today my tmn only got people put banner only. And I check around my tmn they already have install the terminal(Idk what it call)

Oh yeah and I see the guy who do installation comes to my tmn, though I don't know they are from which ISP.

Jasilu90, from what I heard from the dealer they still doing testing in tmn arkid to make sure the connection is stable. After the connection then they only can do the installation.

Be patient man, it better than half finish product. 

Did you terminate your internet after you apply CBB? From what I read from your post it seems you do.
Unrelated. They now also seems to provide this tplink router

Isn't this router is older and same as TM that provide to customer before the aztech? Is this good or the Archer A6 AC1200

Seriously? How did you know? Are you both friend?

Maxis is quite expensive. RM89 for 30M symmetrical when add RM10 more can get 3X more speed with symmetrical CBB 100M plan.

Many Ipoh people want to be as lucky as you to have TNB Allo coverage but couldn't get it just to enjoy CBB broadband packages which are cheaper than Time Broadband for landed.

The housing garden(taman) around my area(Taman Sinfar/Shatin/Pasir Putih) now suddenly TM HSBB yellow stripe cable appearing everywhere folded and hanging on poles. Looks like TM suddenly shaken and got frightened, they quickly expand their HSBB coverage to prevent TNB from reaching these places.

Still their pricing cannot match CBB or Time Fibre. Those who have installed CBB will go round singing to their neighbors and relatives saying TM plans are expensive and slow.

Let them SPREAD the news, people who live in these areas will still NOT subscribe to TM and rather wait for 5G instead because TM still cannot compete with CBB pricing.

50M/50M - RM79
100M/100M - RM99
1Gbps/1Gbps - RM199

If your neighbors opposite your taman paying these prices and your area all these while still don't have Unifi coverage suddenly TM come and expand fibre to your lorong, you want to SUBSCRIBE?
To be honest, I WON'T. Rather wait for 5G and use 4G unlimited plan without contract BYO modem.
TM wholesale pricing seems to be:

RM129 - 100M/50M
RM89 - 30M/10M

Feel like kena TIPU.

TM probably borrow TNB Allo line to promote their plan.

It was initially TNB's intention to expand their Allo Fibre coverage to housing gardens which were deprived from TM Unifi coverage for years up until 2020 without directly confronting TM head-on.

But as you can see, TM was caught with their "pants down" when they found out that TNB was actively expanding into their comfort zones. Only then they started waking up recently and did quick expansion and placed minimal numbers of FDPs around these areas as well as pulling new fibre cables into these housing gardens trying to deter TNB from entering there.

For all you know all these "EXCUSES" of port shortages and not enough demand for expansion are dirty corruption practices by TM.

They wanted to create fake demand telling people there's not enough of ports because of high demand in the area, those who wanted ports availability must either bribe their way to get those ports through agents by paying undertable fees, making excuses to minimize rollout commitments then telling the customers/developers that if they wanted it so desperately, they must jointly pay for the expansion to wire up their projects/homes.

Miraculously though when a competitor such as Allo came into the picture, they suddenly got shook and quickly pulled fibre cables into these areas without complains.

My advise to TNB Allo is since they initiate this challenge, go ahead and face their confrontations. They're at the losing end anyway. They try to beat you to getting these housing gardens to sign up and locked them down for the next 2 years, you can send out your brochures earlier too to make the people aware and educating them that your plans are much cheaper with symmetrical 100Mbps for only RM99 with a much more ADVANCE network then theirs.

Tell them about TM's unfair practices that requires 2 years lockdown contract with remaining months penalty for early termination. Tell them the cheap minimal installation works they provide compared to yours which covers wall sockets in your standard installations and the lousy equipment they're supplying now to their customers.

As you know the Chinese community in Ipoh will not easily commit to things. We know our stuff, the value we're getting for what we're paying for.

I'm skeptical about the demand thing, but if they continue not to be not agressive in confronting TM by overlapping existing coverage with them their project might not work out as intended.

Also just like yours, my housing garden also has these fibre cables running in front which aren't TM fibre cables but green striped ones own by Maxis on TNB poles. They're either using their poles to carry the fibre to designated areas instead of burying them underground or using them as backhaul fibre to wire up mobile base stations which is what Maxis is dong in my area.

Before TM beats Allo to it with signups better be quick throw in the pamphlets and use sales people to go around the area meeting up house owners to inform them who you are.

Maxis's fixed line exchange is located somewhere in Medan Ipoh, behind the Aeon Jusco there nearby the PLUS highway exit.

In Ipoh, Maxis serves a few exclusive housing gardens with their fixed lines such as Pakatan Jaya, Bercham similar to that of Sierramas.The fibre which runs on TNB lines are used for mobile backhaul, not for consumer last mile.If you take a drive straight in from Mun Choong@ off Jln. Pasir Putih, the ending stretch of Tiger Lane you'll see TNB poles also with fibre optics but these fibre cables are green stripes one by Maxis.

About the pamphlet distribution and awareness idea, IMHO do make a difference if you target it with the right portion of audiences like the younger and tech-inclined middle age groups. Just look at the signups and interests at some of the housing gardens such as Tmn. Arkid and Menglembu, the response was quite overwhelming right?
Moreover the unique views on this topic was just about 14k today it's close to 16k already almost 2k views over the weekend. People are actually aware of this lurking here reading.

Try this one from CBB's own in house test site:

https://www.citybroadband.my/support/speed-test/

The Maxis staff got told me before he says not enough spare fibre strands to do fixed broadband services. They're more into preparing 5G deployment in future with fibre backhaul. If need to deploy fixed line fibre services need a new cable with extra dark strands to deploy FTTH.

Current fibre is on active optical network node for mobile backhaul. Port to port 1:1 based back at the exchange.

What!!! You mean the YELLOW stripe cable is from TM???!!!!

Then my area has no hope for Allo......

I don't think it's due to wire cut or anything, more to do with the configuration messed up at their exchange switches/routers.

The fibre line is still up, just that connection now is like very slow 1-2Mbps only and the latency spiked up to several times than usual.

EDIT: Just turned on my ONT/router back again, speed returned to normal but ping still exceptionally high at ~15ms. Maybe Merdeka coming, Maxis network always like that approaching festive holidays their Hotlink will sell cheap on demand MU passes so the traffic will spike.

So, if my apartment is not yet connected BUT the surrounding 360° landed properties already Unifi-capable, chances of me even getting Allo-based ISP is zero?

Regrouping area, north......

Is Allo considering coming to other States as well ? Their Internet looks promising than TM. I can't stand waiting for TM. They already installed Fibre in my area but I asked the contractor and he said that TM only focuses on Government Premise only. They don't want to put on Residential Area yet. Wtf is this policy ? Still want to make people wait while the infra is already there. Smh la this TM. Useless

This is the map for FDPs in KKB Exchange. Yes they're ™ is focusing on schools right now.

FDP KKB Exchange
PPF is planned
ASB is as built.

If your place is not planned on the map, then might as well report to MCMC. Fingers crossed because Selangor budget 2019, TM is rolling out to fiberised whole Selangor.

Map for KL / Sel FDC

My hometown (kampung) are ready for installation 4Q2020.

TM Perak FDPs as 15/08/2020

Just tick the boxes to reveal the markers. As usual, ASB is as built, PPF is planned, MOD and PAD same as ASB I think.
