Hi Guys, im still using Astro IPTV Multicast pair with Ultrabox and Wifi 6 router, I like Multicast more compare with Plug and Play.
What the advantage using Plug & Play compare multicast? I found Plug & Play is downgrade compare Multicast
- Switching Channel slower - After switch channel picture quality gradually change to high quality video - use/share my internet bandwidth - found out some of channel / radio missing
Recently I received a SMS saying that my IPTV will change to a single network mode to enable Plug & Play Ultra/Ulti.
Any one facing same situation with me ? Im planning to terminate my Astro if they phase out multicast.

QUOTE(joshhd @ Aug 24 2022, 11:23 PM) Then no need to think further. Don't change to Plug & Play. Continue using your Astro IPTV Multicast until the day it die itself. Enjoy it while you still can. In the meantime, they might use scare tactics on you (e.g. saying that Astro IPTV will stop working soon). - Switching Channel slower - After switch channel picture quality gradually change to high quality video - use/share my internet bandwidth - found out some of channel / radio missingIf Astro IPTV (Multicast service) really died someday, yet you don't want the above scenarios happen on you, then the closest alternative is go for satellite mode (uses Astro dish). If you cannot or don't like to use Astro dish for some reasons, then sorry to say, it's either Astro Plug & Play or no Astro at all. Thank you for your suggestion, Astro Multicast with dish not acceptable for Malaysia weather. The only reason im subscribing Astro because of IPTV Multicast, most reliable and stable, no service disruption faced during rainfall, smooth & swift watching experience. Too bad if Astro really terminate IPTV multicast service and losing user like me.
