Im moving out to different area, saddest thing is bye bye TIME

new area only have UNIFI or MAXIS FIBRE

Which one is better planwise ya?? I will subs the 300mbps or 500mbps only

thanks k/!!

Never heard of 5g ? What era dy still got ppl die die want use broadband.

both share the same infra..really depending on location

some ktards will say yes 5g lel. just because it is cheap.

maxis

When use unifi, very lousy always throttling

When using Maxis, shit router. Worst than throttling

only unker what use this i think haha

5G that consistent? for streaming and gaming? Last time I tried, the so high speed dont actually meet my expectation. The ping, packet loss

ahh, still got pros and cons from each side just like from old threads I found here. I thought in 2025 either 1 winning dy

Unifi because they have SWU package

If for maxis i change router will it be better than Unifi? Currently using maxis but thinking of switching to unifi

Unifi first, wait for package to jump Maxis get reward

the only issue that stopped me from switching is that maxis technicians sometimes need to wait for Unifi technician to rectify the issues. haha

Maxis have excellent connectivity and peering with SG IX.

Unifi is known for its peak hours slowdown during night but it doesn't seem to happen in Maxis.

Maxis and TIME landed areas are expanding fast in major cities throughout Malaysia.

Heard that some new housing areas in Taiping and Sri Iskandar(nearby UTP), Perak now have TIME landed coverage.

Astro fibre, can get astro channel, backbone also using TM fibre

for normies ok lah, whatsapp, youtube , tt, ig

if u play game u should know that even on 5G the pin sucks big time

Maxis fibre any good?? Will renew contract soon

I’m the opposite of you ts, my place recently time come and upgrade their infra. I’m thinking of jumping ship from unifi to time lol.

Unifi really lousy from 8 pm until 12 am everyday... I'm using Unifi 800 Mbps.. Pay so much but shitty service

Maxis. Can use its zerolution

All also horrid.

Unifi is slow at night. I 9pm youtube also buffer/loading.

Betul2 wtf

you guys on stock router? have tried swapping the router with better one?

I'm using stock router provided by TM for free

Does it help if change to another router ?

Unfortunately yes.

No budget got canggih router. Use oem one saja..

stay away from tm.

SPEND SOME MONEY for a better router.

like I said before

many ppl very kiamsiap when it comes to good router but can pay expensive monthly subscription for the internet

this, I cannot brain.

it is like paying ron 100 for kancil 660

those telco supplied router are just plain sucks

get the mid tier router from asus, tp-link is better, bigger ram that can handle bigger traffic, better soc. yes bandwidth is way more important than the latest router available in the market

for example

AX73 5400
under rm500

TP-LINK AX 73 AX5400



OR

if u guys on budget, can consider TP-Link Archer AX53 RM only RM200 plus now

Cheap TP-LINK AX53 AX3000

TM router setup is the easiest and very straight forward , compared to maxis or time ( need to call helpline to change to ap mode )

all you need is your user id and password, in case u cannot access your router , just contact TM helpline, they will give u back

dont worry others wont be bothered to steal your credentials

this setup similar even on other routers

Shopee automatically apply the voucher for me. RM 25 discount from Shopee + RM 20 discount from shop

Which one give u more goodies and promo?

i would suggest maxis
same like u from TIME>Unifi>Maxis
overall less headache with Maxis..
TIME the best experienced i had.
Unifi is the worst high ping, high packet loss report was made and the issue only solve a few days then it happen again
Maxis stable ping and packet loss + zerolution package is a win for me

I live stream pun no issue pun . Guess depends on yr area mine ok

Depends on if you have family or can use more than 4-5 lines.
If you like Maxis Unlimited 4G/5G. Maxis Family Plan the best.

But Maxis customer service is utterly shit recently.

20 ms

anything above 60 is just plain sucks

Most of the time I think many subscribers suffer these in silent, but dont know what to do

random disconnects
unstable connections

some of them dont even know their own user id and password, dunno how to access the url, how to change the pwd, how to change router

no thanks to telco that keep giving free sampah router which will degrade fast within a year ngam ngam warranty finish.

why cant they sell better router like what they do with hp? educate lah your subscribers. real pndk these telco. unifi, maxis, time , all the same. real hkc.

Same case like me.

In condo last time using TIME 500mb/s
Now in new house using unifi 500mb/s too but alot of different.
I just notice both package download speed the same but upload speed TIME remain at 500mb/s while unifi at 100mb/s.
No choice as I realize it after sign 2 years contract.

Unifi overall OK but need to change the router. Currently running with Orbi, stable no issue.

sound like you have bad wifi,living in high density area.unifi hardly have issue with youtube.

if you're not a maxis postpaid subscriber better just go with TM

5g suck ass interm of connections stability, frequent down time and disconnections even if the downtime is just in seconds or minutes.

I use hotlink

Very gooding

i only have problem with unifi at night some website load very slow but youtube and netflix no issues

gaming still ok i dont play competitive shooting so i no complain

planning to switch to time but too lazy to do all these procedures

astro broadband seems cheaper, 500mbps only 90. im unifi user btw, tempting to change to astro broadband.

TM
Pro - if hardware/fibre issue usually they will come fix within 24 hours.
Con - Basically unusable between 8pm - 1am daily.

Maxis
Pro - Even if using Maxis on TM infra, way better international peering and bandwidth throughput the day.
Con - if outside fibre problem, turnaround will be longer if your Maxis is riding on TM infra, because Maxis and TM will waste time ding-dong each other before resolution.

I agree about this except Cons of unifi. It's not unusable but basically slower between 8pm - 1am. Cannot get stable 1GBps for my case..

PS: I stay with unifi >10 years bcoz multiple upgrade. Basically just RM179. broadband + all unifi tv channel+ disney + max + multiples aps..

you are on stock router?

yes..nvr bother to change.

solve it

Whichever cheaper

I ended up using Maxis. Not gonna lie, I miss Time’s speed and cheaper package.
But so far, so good Maxis has no problems and a stable connection.

Planning to take the zerolution for the 60-70 inch tv soon

what stock router that they give u this time?

5g is rubbish. Not stable at all

this jump is a no brainer. dont even need to consider

From experience, Maxis tend to provide better latency than Unifi.

Just subbed maxis fibre for my new house. They gave me tplink ex230v router

Ok ah this router?
