wait a minute, a joint petition? against myrepublic?

I think to get to the bottom of this issue, MR need to put themselves under investigation, unfortunate but may be necessary.

Something like what Aaron Kwok did in the 2012 Hong Kong flim Cold War. To catch the real criminal he secretly set himself up under investigation. Brilliant.

i think MR should come up with a plan to DEAL with open net. AND explain clearly about what OPEN NET is in terms of their disabilities to do things properly.

Hope MR can come up with a plan.

ha ! so true and brilliant. investigate themselves, then as the investigation expands ... woops .. aha !!! open net top management undertable money with singtel. singtel under table money with IDA ! deng deng deng deng ...

You got it brother !

Microsoft downloads are hosted locally, anyone can reach subscriber speed do you have something international??

Very strange, I use idm too but can never have more than 8x connections even if the file is very big though I already set it to 16 connections in options. Friendly version not supported?

Of course not saying that they are but to uncover any failure & incompetences in the system is only through such investigation.

Think about the previous Singtel fire, little India riot, Mrt dislodged "claws" etc....
Will all this lapses in the system be found out without investigation?

Hi Binaries,

1. If you have a NAS that needs access to the Internet (for backup for example) you may also need to change its MTU as well. Also, MTU may differ for each person

2. My Ac66U is also affected by this 300mbps cap. Can I export my settings , do a factory reset and restore my profiles back?

Also, will the cap bug come back again after a short while of usage? (It seems it came back for me after some usage of flashing to Merlin firmware a few days back )

1) I do not have NAS so I cannot be sure.

2) I highly doubt that it will work, from my experience so far as long as we meddle with the settings more than we should, the bug comes back.

One thing I read about MTU fragmented issue is that since packets are sent thru the Internet default by 1500. Any packets that are sent or received if MTU is set to a lower value will have to be broken up by sending 14XX and then the balance in another packet. May cause delay as need to send twice etc

That is quite true, I'm not networking trained but yes I am pretty sure the lower the MTU the more job involved but then again considering the hardware specs of AC68U it should handle all these with ease. So I do not worry, my speed have not been impaired in anyways so far by dropping MTU to 1476

I think there's nothing we can do right now except for Asus to come out with a new firmware for us. I mean I didn't pay top dollars to do R&D for Asus

 

[Binaries]

congrats, could u share your system specs and hardware setup configuration?

i think MR should add a hardware specs requirement to the 1gbps plan..

from what i see, some people have no idea what they are signing up for.

Asus Rampage IV Extreme

Intel i7-3970x

Asus GTX 690

Corsair Dominator Platinum 2400mhz 16GB

Using AC68U - Firmware 3.0.0.4.374_4561

any incompetance is, failure to budget for more manpower to do the TP work. the more TP they get, the more $$$$. IDA only talk nia regulate, the most just impose fine. since singtel m1 starhub all kena fined, i want to see what bloody fine they will give open net.

techs who are working in the field as contract staff will know they get a fixed rate of pay no matter if they do it on weekday or weekend. to open net, their aim is to maintain a fixed amt of worker, they already admit on news that they cannot size their workforce due to high fluctuating demand, but to under perform with so many complain, and then buy over by singtel and media black out? fwaaa ...

eh MR staff why not suggest IDA, approve a team from MR to do your own TP but licensed by open net la. is doing TP a very hard task? and ONLY must be done by open net ppl meh? must go thru simi FBI secret training meh?

Not sure but I remember something like starhub offer to help opennet but opennet refuse. They want all the pie to themselves but their mouth not big enough. Haha

So basically they take their time to slowly bit, chew & swallow

It is a good suggestion no doubt.

But problem is IF opennet/ IDA agree or not. I have a nagging feeling that it could be easier for me to get enlisted & graduate from the FBI & CIA then for open net to allow MR to do the TP. Let someone else earn their $$. Impossible

But still worth a shot.

Provided MR wants to do it in the first place.

If MR can install TP. They would finish installing all the 1Gbps within a week. Then big 3 no business how can?

"408 Request Time-out

Your browser didn't send a complete request in time."

getting timeouts on some of them, requiring refresh (a few times)
really hope ASUS releases a new firmware to fix all of these issues soon :/
how can a high bandwidth AC router have sooo many issues (noting those WiFi upload issues) with a 1Gbps line (the very speed/line that it should be working with)

I have a interesting issue...

I switched from ViewQwest to MR.

With VQ, I am able to watch Youtube on my Sony smart TV, of course, pc as well.

With MR, I am able to watch Youtube on my pc only. Sony smart TV successfully connect to my router, internet browsing is okay too, only Youtube refuse to work.

Bear in mind, I have 2 Sony smart TVs at home, both same issue.

anyone can help?

Just a personal question, why did you switch from VQ to MR?

 

[maxsony]

well,

I would rather said both side has fault.

such issues such as speed , installation delay etc shouldn't even occur at all.. maybe at most 1-2 cases.. really serious unforeseen issues.

However they should have forecast such issues even before they had launched the service to the consumer, they should had already came out measures and policy to ensure each and every single things go smoothly.

To be frank, They are not new to this industry nor this business at all, they do have experts in the company to tackle , come out measures and solutions even before the problems arise.

But it seems like they are waiting for something to happen , after that, they unable to contain the issues, then having meeting with each other to come out measures and solution to encounter the issues. But I would said it is too late.

if there is measures and solution way beforehand they launched..such issues wont happen.

no doubt opennet does have fault. at the moment is who had promised the consumers in the first place thus thus consumers had signed for their internet services. service provider or the tech guy (Open net) help to assist in installation of the fibre port.

above is just my 2 cents.

VQ: 200mbps - $65 per month
MR: 1Gbps - $50 per month

Exactly !

Why must a company offer a service which the company itself cannot fulfill ?

Few yrs back, I was lucky enough to work for a reputable company supporting telco such as Singtel, M1 etc.

And I'm proud to say, my boss will whack me if I ever over-promise my client about our services.

Cannot means cannot. Not ready is not ready. Supplier problem is not client's problem.
