MyRepublic fibre - Part 4

[shadow84]

All these actions have crossed my mind at some point.

Storming puts me in a compromised position, so that's out.

I'm still toying with what's the most effective way to get this story out into the mainstream…ST? Surely not one of those Real Singapore blogs? Does anyone know who might be the right person to email at ST?

Someone just moved out of my apartment block yesterday…a new person will come in soon….what if they want fibre too? Are they going to have to put up with all this BS all over again? That is why I think it is best to put this story out to a bigger audience so it shames these clowns into getting their act together. Once and for all.

Sending to blogger is useless since you would have to pay them to advertise ur problem...

U can try sending to TODAY newspaper, im sure they publish their emails in most of their cover stories. Find one that does inland news and you can try ur luck with them...

I prefer not to send it as a "letter to the editor"…Dear Sir etc etc….that sounds like a personal problem….and people don;t want to read other people's problems.

I'd prefer to talk to a journalist, give them my account in writing, along with the parties names and contacts. Then, let them write the story…it would probably be more effective as a story along the lines of "Intelligent Nation 2015? How NetLink Trust has failed in its mission to bring fibre to the masses."

I'm only able to achieve speeds of 268mbps with a direct connection to my N56U router with two cat 6 cables from my computer -> router -> ONT. However, when I tried connecting directly to the ONT I am able to achieve close to 1gbps and I gave a call to their technician who came down to check and he was able to get 1gbps on his laptop which wasn't a router issue. Can anyone help?


Okay I'm not too sure what's happening but every time I restart the test, my download speed improves by 10mbps. After about 6 tries, I am getting this speed:

Not even half of 1Gbps

This is the best what I get so far after first day of 1Gbps usage.

N56U with 1Gbps wired ethernet. all default settings.

any comment?

Have you checked out their support page regarding speed and connection issues?

Try do a router reset to factory and sees if it helps.
I encountered that the last time i switched to a brand new RT-AC56U. Had to downgrade my firmware to some ancient version (which can do near 1Gbps) then slowly upgrade to the latest.

Last;y, if you enable QoS.. your speed will be somewhere like what you have gotten.

Tried these still doesn't improved:
1. Disabled QOS and firewall in Windows 8.1
2. Direct connect to modem, without router.
3. Used speedtest.myrepublic.com.sg

Are you using CAT5E or CAT6? It could be faulty wires/ port if everything is set right.

The installing tech shouldn't leave your house without showing you a test 1Gb speed during the installation. If he can't get the speed, he'll normally notify HQ to do tests.

Hi guys, check out the 1Gbps tips by MyRepublic!

Is MyRepublic down again? Bukit panjang area suddenly no network....

 

[wiccawizzards]

Same here. Just power cycle it and it should work again.

 

[benico]

Power cycle twice still no connection

Good to hear you have the same sentiment.

Hope to see the article out soon

 

[wiccawizzards]

How long did you wait in between? did you power cycle the modem and the router at the same time?

 

[necxross]

Power cycle twice still no connection

Don't forget to power off at least 15 minutes for both devices, then turn on the ONT first. Then router.

You better call NetLink Trust (No more OpenNet) to arrange directly. They will only give you one day, or even lesser, notification if they cannot make it to my house.

NLT screwed with me on two occasions like this. Wasted 2 days of my annual leave to stay at home and they called me on the same day to cancel the appointment. That is why I am not happy with VQ.
