The ultimate solution to poor WiFi connection in rooms

Isn’t it frustrating that no matter how much money you spent on routers and upgrading your Internet speed, you just can’t get up to the Internet speed you paid for?

Especially when it comes to using the Internet in your room, your computer’s WiFi connection just doesn’t perform as intended despite having a good signal, such as intermittent disconnects, buffers in video streaming, and slow ping response in online games, which you may need to open your room’s door or move closer to your router to enjoy the full speed.
Doesn’t that sound familiar?

We have all been there and the pain is real, hence this is what Time Internet’s Gig Speed Home (FTTR) solution aims to eliminate and deliver your full Internet speed up to 1Gbps to every room in your home.

Wait. Isn’t this similar to Mesh WiFi? How is it different?

Mesh WiFi routers have satellite nodes (or base stations) that connect to the main node to expand your WiFi network coverage.The network bounces off each device to expand the coverage of the connectivity and that process reduces the strength of the network, resulting in weaker and slower network connectivity if the satellite node is too far away from the main node.

FTTR nodes have micro fibre optic cables physically extended from your main Optical Network Unit inserted into them, so the transmission of your home’s Internet connection isn’t affected by dead spots in your home that can happen to Mesh WiFi routers.

The nodes are placed in each room either wall-mounted or on the table, and since it’s connected to the main node via the fibre optic cable for Internet connectivity, it can broadcast its own WiFi signal to devices in your room,resulting in a much lower connection latency and greater bandwidth. They’re interconnected so that your device switches to the best node for the strongest WiFi signal as you move around your home.

FTTR greatly benefits applications such as IoT, cloud gaming and video calls, as they require extremely low latency for an uninterrupted experience, the Huawei F30 series nodes provided by Time also supports up to 128 devices which is great for smart homes.

Time’s Gig Speed Home (FTTR) uses micro fibre optic cables that are barely visible as they are laid on the ceiling or skirting of the floor by professional installers. This also eliminates the conventional need to install a LAN port in every room and have them trailing over to your router which may end up looking messy and not necessarily deliver the best network experience.

Starting from as low as RM55/month with a 24-month payment plan, Time’s Gig Speed Home (FTTR) can deliver low latency and Gigabit speeds up to 4 rooms. This service is available with the Time Fibre Home 500Mbps and 1Gbps plans in selected buildings.
