Nope.
Whoever subscribe to Astro & Broadband now, technically it will be under Maxis Fibre network (VLAN 821).

But since Astro partnered with TM, that means Astro will become an ISP soon (just like Digi Fibre or Celcom Fibre) and no longer rely on Maxis as middlemen. So once that happens, Astro will have their own VLAN ID soon.

so astro will have their own VLAN ID mean ASTRO IPTV Will multicast Like time fiber was ASTRO IPTV Multicast and maxis fiber also astro multicast not internet iptv

Astro has stopped offering IPTV Multicast to customers since late last year. For those who already been using IPTV Multicast (either through TIME Fibre or Maxis Fibre) will continue to be able to use as usual, but Astro will encourage you to upgrade to Ulti/Ultra Box under Plug and Play (also known as Unicast, that doesn't uses dedicated VLAN ID).

For Plug and Play one, just connect the box to the internet (WiFi or LAN also can), then you can stream the channels already, similar to Unifi Plus Box. LAN cable are not compulsory unlike Astro IPTV (that uses Multicast VLAN).

not worth upgrade ultra box i hate due internet streaming will a lot compress and sometime will blur
i using PVR Box not ultra that why too bad astro stop multicast iptv very bad
i will stay PVR box with hdd and can do rewind and forward too anything and very bad ultra box

@joshhd

I use your post earlyer to ask for Public IP for RM5.00 per month

But i think,  i got fixed IP instead, not public ip....why i say this because when ever i restart my router my ip was always the same, how even when i check with whatsmyip website, clearly the ip it show is different from my router internet ip, which suggest its not a public ip right....

When i restart my router, yes the ip stay the same. The whatsmyip website also stay the same, although its stay the same but its different from my router IP vs the website IP...

So what do you guys think? Izzit public ip or still private ip with fix ip number

So the question really do Astro Fibre have Public IP option, their agent also seems confuse with the term private Public and Fixed ip..
*
when i check with whatsmyip website, clearly the ip it show is different from my router internet ip = 100% Private IP

When i restart my router, yes the ip stay the same. The whatsmyip website also stay the same, although its stay the same but its different from my router IP vs the website IP... = 100% Private IP FIXED
not real public ip i know now you are private IP

please go ahead Report MCMC to request Terminate due astro can't deliver promised
