I 100% sure if u were using Streamyx & router failure due to lightning.

how can fiber cable conduct electric? 

How old is ur UPS? How long it last when no electricity?

U can try to use 12V/1A adapter from other devices to test ur modem/router. Can also use usb 5V to 12V converter similar below.

Unifi modem is not meant as backup. If you have existing working modem just use it. As for router, yes you can surely get free from them with 2 years contract.

He post like only have modem & router, no internet for 2 days. Didn't mention about the dlink.

Most likely you get all in one ONU plus router this time.
But what you can do is ask technician to configure as bridge mode, then use your own router.

what router are you using?
interesting..
What's the difference between private and public IP?
can share some good router? better to be future proof if that's the case.
also if i buy own router, how to configure back the router?
i believe there should be a username password tm set.

that brand mercusys BE9300 no good lol

Hi Sifus,
Question, if I use the DLINK as modem and (pppoe set at modem) router and connect LAN as AP to my own router for mesh compare to use DLINK as Modem only and set PPPOE at my own router. What are the pros n cons. Thanks.

2.GbE for all RJ45 is good bet I would say for such price. If the user is general consumer, then the unit will be sufficient, unless they are planning to run a homelab, then recommending a good brand will do.

I think if you use your own router to dial the PPPoE , you can set public DNS yourself.
If you use that 2in1 modem+router that TM provides you, I have no idea whether you can set public DNS on that device as the firmware is custom made for TM.
Probably you have better security on your own router as well since TM routers always have that TR-069 backdoor which I'm very uncomfortable with. And some routers do have anti virus built-in. My TPLink AX50 does.

The main reason i prefer to use my own router to dial PPPoE is because of security. I don't trust ppl working in TM . They can remotely access the modem , no problem. I don't want them to have any chance of remotely accessing my router through TR-069.

For you though since you have 1Gbit subscription , from what i know TM provided modem+router for your package only has 2.5Gbit WAN port.  All the LAN ports on the device are all 1Gbit. You might gain minimal performance on WiFi if you use TM device for wireless  access because you do receive full 1Gbit from TM. Anything that goes thru the LAN port on that TM device , max out  at best around 980mbps only as 1Gbit LAN port has some overhead.

DLINK X3060Z is crap and cheap router Mercusys MR80X for RM120 wont solves you problem wifi you speed will be 480Mbps less than
due weak spec router

didn't work, my speed not slow, just PPPoE terminate my session, been uploading 6TB of zero (uptime: 22hrs):


Even with this ONU that I got from tm friend still didn't work




Last Saturday my friend checked something wrong with PPPoE, that is why I check now,



Next morning I ask him again this, and I already send email to TM with relevant documents

my other friend can even choose to avoid ibse02.rsh, I ask around seem this been in service since Streamyx?
