I finally got SingNet to come and check the line yesteday. As claimed by the technician, the line readings weren't good due to the aging of my line. He changed/patched something on the DP and then got someone to go to some cabinet and do some wiring as well as rebuilding my profile twice.
According to him, the line is now at it's optimum and should be good for at least another 3 to 4 years.
He kept on asking me to renew my contract and told me to go for the Aztech Wireless modem (black). Anyone got any suggestions on this? Also, can I choose modem brand? Which is better? Aztech or 2 Wire?
I have had 3 singnet technician came over the last 2 mths period. Frequent disconnection, wireless cannot connect intermittently. Btw, I'm using 2 wire black one. Finally the third tech came and changed the modem to aztech 1015. So far I have few encounter that my pc on wired LAN cannot connect to the modem due to ip addr issue. A bit annoying but can live with it.
However the problem now is the speed. I'm on 10mbps. Got 4-6 Mbps on download and 0 Mbps for upload. Tested several times using singnet web site utility.
Now singnet is sending the 4th tech and replacing the aztech back to 2wire black.
If u ask me, think I stick with 2wire... Reason wireless N. Aztech though similar 1015 model but the suffix of ew(s) makes the difference as compared to the off the retail shelf one.
Wanted to buy another to replace but with Miotv, my options are limited though there are alternative posted on the forums.
