If this is true,

Do I need to replace the current router - ASUS RT-AX3000 for the 2Gbps service?

Let's say if some users choose to get a 3rd party router for the 2Gbps plan, what options are available on the market now?

At least the 3rd party router option is available.

Which mean the 3rd party routers have to know how to play nice together with the new BTU, which I expect TMNET would introduce for the new 1Gbps and 2Gbps packages.

I would probably jump on the wagon for the 1Gbps upload speed to transfer 4k movie clips onto my online storage. The price, though. Hmmm.

Edit: From Unifi webpage:

They didn't mention it depends on the local hardware capability too.

Even MYR 300 is still a good deal for that speed, considering the rise of global energy bill, that is, unless everyone has solar panels installed on their roof tops to power the BTU and routers.

This explains well.
"Essentially, the 2Gbps Unifi plan is a 2x 1Gbps offering. This means if you run a speed test, you could only get a maximum of 1Gbps from a single device. Instead of a higher maximum speed (2Gbps), you have double the bandwidth (2x 1Gbps) that can support more devices in the same home. If you live in a double-storey house, you could possibly have one router upstairs with its own 1Gbps bandwidth, while the other router downstairs has its own dedicated 1Gbps bandwidth. "

They should just do 100Mbps, 500Mbps, 1Gbps, and 2Gbps packages, easier for everyone.

Or

MORE COMPETITORS = lower down the price.

Given the hassle of setting up the 2Gbps, I might as well just upgrade to the 1Gbps package. The major downside is the 500Mbps upload speed.

Speaking of Maxis, has its service been improved now, compare to previously.

It looks tempting. Currently on 800Mbps package which costs MYR 274.85, could use more upload speed for files keeping. Hmmm. 🤔

Still thinking about upgrading to 1Gbps, or maybe 2Gbps (which is limited to their own hardwares, though)

My main reason is the upload speed, which I rely for online storages for my work until I can get bigger storage devices. Hmmm. 🤔

Interesting, how to do it? What hardwares do I need to get, if I choose to upgrade to 2Gbps package?

Yikes, too many loops to jump for the full 2Gbps experience.
