yes, i just called only... IT show no better deals so LL called sales line... the cso checked the system only got 500m or 1gb plan for upgrade...

tot i heard wrongly due to her accent so i asked her repeat the plan with mthly rate... 500mbs @ $29.90, 1gb @ $39.90...

but too bad, she dun understand home analogue line... wana smoke me say technician will access during site visit...
:eek:
after tat told her i'll go hello shop

You go hello shop no use probably. Even different singtel departments have different offers on the phone.....
I asked about the analogue line quarter charges waiver too and the person said there wasn't an option to waive. Another one said can, but is a ft so I'm quite sceptical she meant it as she said I currently am not paying so wouldn't need to.

will kindly appreciate more inputs and advise from the bros here.

I have a contract with M1 which expired recently. bought it at a similar IT show two years ago. 1 Gbps at $39. received the Huawei modem and RT 56S router. placed the router at the living room but my MBR has poor connectivity. sometimes the 5 GHz no signal so I switch to 2.4Ghz but even then maybe 1 bar. recently did a speed test on my laptop. and got pretty poor speeds. I'll post it up later. so should I upgrade? to mesh to solve my dead spot?

Recontract my M1, got the new free router (RT-AC1200G+) which is way better than my RT-N56U which I was having trouble with 5Ghz no signal...

I think the Samsung Connect will be better, and it works better if you have a Samsung Galaxy phone too.

AirTies is good too, just plug and play but some say the speed is slower than the Samsung Connect.

Any idea of both Samsung Connect or AirTies have to use the singtel provided router? Or can use your own?

Of course you should upgrade to wifi mesh.

If you are issued with an ONR, you can connect one of the mesh nodes directly to the LAN ports of the ONR.
