Wondering what's the best offer that existing Unifi subscribers are being offered now, I received a call from their sales -

300/50 Mbps RM159/month
300/50 MBps with IPTV RM179/month

both with TP-Link mesh deco (router + node)

My desktops, NAS, TV etc. are all connected with ethernet and I already have good WiFi coverage in the house, so TP-Link equipment is of imited interest. Can you bargain with them to reduce cost if you don't take their hardware or do they have better deals? I read in this thread last November they were offering 300Mbps for RM139.

Thanks for the reply. Looking at the competition's web sites for 300/50:

Digi - RM150/month
Celcom - RM140/month (RM21 deduction for 3 months)
Maxis - I've had enough of their business practices with Astro, so they're not in consideration

So Celcom offers a better deal. Any feedback on their service?

I've been a long time subscriber to Unifi and am very satisfied with their service - I get a dynamic ip address free which is a +. With Celcom no doubt I would be stuck behind GCNAT. I run quite a few services on my home server - Bitwarden, Nextcloud, music streaming, do you know if Celcom block ports to prevent this?

Guess I should be asking some of these questions in the Celcom FTTH thread.

802.11n operates on both 2.4GHz & 5Ghz, maybe support is not set in his router.

Is it a public ip or is it in the CGNAT block 100.64.0.0/10 (100.64.0.0 to 100.127.255.255, netmask 255.192.0.0)?

Unifi implemented CGNAT recently - lots of posts here.

Maybe you access via ipv6 if you have it set.

We really need a price war to bring the price down. Malaysia retail broadband is still expensive compared to world prices. Hope Celcom/Digi or one of the others will trigger some real competition.

Yes agreed, the trend for RM/GB is ever downwards, hoping that more FTTH operators coming onboard will accelerate the trend.

Yes .. if you've shared your wifi password with him. You should be able to login to your router and see connected devices.

Only the devices presently connected. If you're concerned then change the WiFi password in the router, most probably you need to change for both 2.4 & 5GHz bands.

You're assigned public ipv6 addresses for your devices by Unifi dhcp if you enable ipv6 on the router. On your router you should be able to set access through the ipv6 firewall for the services you want to access from the internet. I only have experience of Asus routers, there isn't any dhcp6.

Set ipv6 on



Then open up ports in ipv6 firewall



Unifi should retain the DHCP address assignments if you don't release the addresses on exit. I use duckdns to associate the ipv6 dynamic addresses with host names (DNS AAA records), run the dyndns update script on my server .

If you have release address on exit set, when the internet connection drops, ipv6 assignments will be released, so you will most probably get new ipv6 addresses assigned by Unifi when the link comes up again. If you look at the first screenshot the option is given.

Yes.

No knowledge of Maxis, Digi mobile network is only using ipv4. You can check your phone settings to see assigned ip addresses assigned when you're on mobile data.

Duckdns has supported ipv6 for a few years.

The DHCP-PD in your router should have the option to release/retain the prefix on exit (connection drop), the prefix is allocated by Unifi based on the router DUID, normally the WAN port MAC address.

For Asus routers there's a 'safely remove' button on the Network Map page of the web interface. Other brands of router should have something similar.

You're off topic in this thread, you would be better asking in the WiFi router thread https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=4658096&hl=#

Most, if not all you could do with router running Asus Merlin firmware, for WiFi6 AX86U & AX68U are popular choices. You would have to become familiar with SSH terminal access and iptables to do some IP6 blocking.

Are you sure it's the BTU and not the router rebooting? Have you checked your router log?
