Hi, need to ask some questions about subscribing Maxis Fibre Internet through Astro+Broadband, as Astro won't restrict some channel access if subscribed with Astro+Broadband with Ultra Box (Plug and Play). Because Astro+Broadband's backbone is powered by Maxis Fibre (and also partnership), need to ask some questions here.

1. If subscribing through Astro+Broadband, will I still get the Wi-Fi 6 Router?
2. Am I able to get unlimited mobile data through Maxis through the "Leave us your information and we will contact you soon" form on the Maxis Fiber website? Because I'm an existing Maxis user.

3. As the image above that I screencaped from the Maxis website, the what's the difference between this "Astro" option and Astro's own "Astro+Broadband" service?
- Maxis's website is more restrictive on Astro package selection, as it only lets me select until "Super Pack Lite". Maybe I should separate my Astro subscription with Maxis?
- Also, is the Astro service running under IPTV multicast or satellite? Asked Astro on WhatsApp and they said if you subscribe broadband through Astro, it will give you satellite by default.
4. Am I able to enjoy the "Home devices for RM19/month" option if I subscribed through Astro?

Thanks.

Currently, Astro didn't offer PVR boxes but connected ones. Same 1080i25 signal, but through streaming.
If you subscribe through Astro + Broadband, you'll unlock all channels. Don't know why Astro did that.

...and it's an option on the Astro website. If you subscribe then select "Plug and Play" it will give you a pop-up asking you to subscribe to A+B.

I'm also concerned that Astro will change their backbone ISP anytime.

I asked Astro Version 13A before, and someone said that the internet will be managed by Astro, so if you want to ask about Maxis, you need to ask Astro. Not sure how they will contact Maxis for stuffs.
