StarHub MaxInfinity Fiber Optic - Experience

[Gribber]

Hi guys

I am new to this fire stuff and I just signed up for the maxinfinity ultimate.

At the moment I have my TP in the living room.
But I am more of the heavy user of the Internet in my household.

So do I actually install another TP in my room or just the ONT as I would like to have direct wired connection to my PC.

Thanks!

another TP = another internet as well?

if not then,
Homeplugs.

I think SH blocks P2P after the last maintenance. I cannot stream anything. Anyone can verify?

No problem too. At 9pm my transfer peaked at 47.2Mb/s.

anyone else affected by the open net maintenance? 1 to 6 am is too much!

i wonder how come starhub cant use the type of ont that M1 provides for their customers whereby u can connect your own router to the ont directly... voice (tel) connect to ont too...

Hi, I just subscribed to Starhub Maxinfinity fibre and did a speedtest and results came out to be only less than 20mbps. I'm using a crappy belkin wireless adapter btw, does it makes a difference in the download speed?

test using ethernet cables and u will notice the big difference

meaning I have to connect my computer straight to the router using the ethernet cable? problem is the router is too far away from my computer. haha

if you are using a crappy belkin wireless adaptor means your theological maximum speed is 56mbps. as such, getting 20mbps is very normal.

In additional, the distance etc is a major factor.

Try plugging in directly and do speed test and see if it's working fine.

I figured that would be the best possible way, but it's difficult to do so as I'm using a desktop. Would getting a new wireless usb adapter helps at all? If it does, which one do you guys recommend? By the way I'm using the d-link router that starhub provided me with.

you can try to get a homeplug.. getting up to 130mbps on speedtest for my MIF100.. I am using aztech HL280E.

 

[HappyLee]

But i'll still have to change a usb adapter right? Since i'm using a low end one and the speed is restricted

 

[HappyLee]

Anyway I tried using the Aztech WL556E as I have one at home, my speedtest results actually dropped, what did I do wrong?
