I understand that with RG, the incoming calls and outgoing calls are free. Do they have Caller ID Free? If not, how much do they charge?

Thanks!

Caller ID is charging at $2.14/mth if you are interested.
Just call in to 1627 if you want this service.

Maybe go to Sim Lim Tower to see see look look, rather than Sim Lim Square.

That works too.

Not sure yet Bro. Decided to give cable a try. Will connect my RG to my desktop. RG's WLAN is disabled as it is inturn connected to the Engenius 9850. The Engenius 9850 will serve my notebooks, mobile phones and tablet.

This morning I also realised that the cable connecting my RG to the Engenius 9850 is a Cat 5 cable. Decided to change it to Cat 6. So I ordered a 0.5m Cat 6 cable with RJ45 termination at both ends. Cost: $3. Also to be collected tomorrow.

Why must order? order from who? Just walk in and pick it up will do right?

 

[janx83]

i just bought 2 sets of 1M cat6 flat cable from Course at $8.9 each.

 

[janx83]

how much diff in speed between cat5e and cat6?

 

[Citiguy]

Why must order? order from who? Just walk in and pick it up will do right?

I SMS-ed the mobile number listed in the blog site. I then ordered my cable after asking for the quote. I am not sure whether walk in service is available. Why don't you call the number? Or I can ask the person serving me tomorrow about the walk in matter.

Earlier, the person SMS-ed informing me that my cables were already tested and is ready for collection.

 

[Citiguy]

how much diff in speed between cat5e and cat6?

Should be negligible. (according to ahtea! )
