any solution for ADSL customers? can't take fibre cos opennet went to install my fibre point right beside the door

Just lay a flat cat 6 cable around your house.

You should have instructed them where to terminate the fibre.

My dad was the only one around and they never ask/told him anything. just install beside the door and left

Sigh, same here.
Only old one around and even though told to tell the opennet guys to install the terminal beside the TV antenna point, yet they install beside the main door, at the far end across the living room and opposite the antenna point/TV rack.
Called them up kao-pei-kao-bu then they came down 2 days later to re-lay the trunking and cable, no charges involved.
Bloody f**king lazy pigs.
Singapore service providers must get f**ked then they wake up one.

This is not OpenNet fault because you do not bother to take leave to be around or tell your father etc.
Really?
You think so?
OpenNet contractors are so dumb to realize where is the most suitable location to relieve resident from all inconvenience and troubles?
They are rushing through the process and want to cut down labor and material cost hoping to earn more!

I had the same experience when I first installed mine years ago. The installers just wanna choose the easiest way and go through existing SCV trunking. Made the mistake of not being there myself to supervise. Had to call and make a big fuss before they came down to redo it the way I wanted.

Hi Folks,

My father 2 story old maisonette is currently on singtel 10mps, recently he said signal is very bad for downstairs or even other rooms on the same level. His router is the 2wire one, is there any new router with good range of signal we can buy for him to replace this 2wire which is 2 years old already.

Last time, we wanted to get fiber for him. but he doesn't like to lay cable around the house thus we have to stick to the convention package using the phone plug and his computer is on the 2nd level in one of the room.

The only thing I can think of is replacing with a new router and hoping will help.

Please advise.

Try repositioning the router, maybe more towards the staircase landing.

Thank you, That is a good suggestion if all failed. So there is no better router to substitute ?

If it is wifi problem, I suggest buying an Access Point (AP) instead of a router. Just have to wire from router to AP using a ethernet cable if the AP uses power over ethernet. APs usually cover a greater range
