I'm was a Unifi 100mbps user for 1.5 years, recently switched to Maxis 300mbps on TM infra, 3 months in.
My network device:
ONU:ZTE-F620
Router:ASUS AX58U flashed with Merlin
DNS: Google DNS on both IPv4 and IPv6

Uptime: 100%, my router and onu is on 24/7, probably manual restart once every 2 weeks.

Speed:
MY:
Always full speed from local national server.

SG:
Full speed on most test servers, ping are slightly higher than Unifi but always stable with no ping and lag spikes

Worldwide:
EU around 25~75% speed, NA is slightly higher

Latency:
MY&SG: Slightly higher than TM, but always stable with no ping and lag spikes

Worldwide: Ping is a bit higher on NA but EU is way better than unifi

Local and SG server ping test:

AWS ping test:

IPv4/6:
Maxis IPv4 connection no problem at all
Maxis IPv6 is really stable and on by default, no problem viewing Twitter,Facebook, Youtube during peak hour unlike TM having problem loading video or image

For me, changing from Unifi to Maxis experience is night and day.
No more lousy ping and lag spikes during peak hour, no more weird image and video not loading on social media
Most importantly, when Unifi is doing maintenance, Maxis wont be affected (unless it is on their common infra)
The only annoying problem I've had is, you cant watch PrawnHub with Maxis unless using VPN. Changing DNS wont do.

Ya legit, everything about Maxis is better than Unifi apart from the website block... If I know in advance... Would stick with Unifi until Allo is ready

May I know do you able to login to the ONU page, and do you use Maxis VOIP services with your setup?

No and No
I couldn’t login to the ZTE ONU as they seems to lock it after configuration. I don’t use Maxis VOIP at all as my plan didn’t come with any call plan, the the technician didn’t even bother to setup in the provided Kaon router.

Been browsing without phub for a long time, I first thought it would be a problem but it turns out fine. Since that particular website is pretty much out of contents after the great flush a year or two before. Having a broadband that just works 99.9% of the time is a sacrifice I’m willing to make.
