Singtel Wireless-AC dual band router

[Henry Ng]

I think this is only for the Mio plan. I have 500M without Mio and they gave me the 7002GRV.

When is your installation date?

 

[Henry Ng]

With just 200M plan, it is already so fast and ping is quite good:

500M may be even faster a bit.

hi. will be signing up the 200m fibre home plan later today.

just wan to ask, since the openet point is in my living room, i probably need to get a wifi adaptor thingy to get internet on my desktop (current setting is direct connection from modem in my room).

what is the best adaptor i can get to make sure i can get the most out from the wifi from the 200m fibre?

ST do provide nice cabling to your com but must pay a bit. Earlier ST do it for me FOC.
If u sign M1 just get a contractor to do the cable.

I think $80 for 15m or 15 feet. Do call 1609 to ask and sign up. No need to go down.

ST really can install fast. How is your speed test to Hawaii (Hawaiian Telecom)? Actually now is Aztech FG7003 and you getting FG7002 like short changed. You can request to change your router to FG7003.

 

[derazor]

No,not yet .
They said since I signed up today,can only officially request on Tue or Wed till system update.
May try the 7002 first.If range problem then go for extender as what Henry suggested or perhaps go for Asus.
Regards

No need to setup the vlan thing ah?

Just do what you need and what you want. ST now allow own router.

 

[deathscthe]

got mio tv can use any router or must use back singtel one?

Doesn't Singtel do MAC address checking?

Btw just an update and a warning. Singtel cannot and will not replace your router after service has been activated. So unlike some providers (VQ) who are willing to change the device even after deployment Singtel just gives the standard line that they can't do anything. So if you have the 7002 or lower router deployed you are pretty much stuck with it until it is faulty.

Are you sure? Are u ST user? What happened? Please share what happened. What make u say that? During PC Show all sign up is Aztech 7002 and if u want to upgrade to AC router you top up $ or sign up 500M plan. ST has been very clear and 7002 has been better than ASUS RT-N56U. VQ is ASUS router and faulty must bring to ASUS service centre during weekday. No serving by VQ when it is faulty.
