INTERNET INTERMITTENT OR FREQUENT DISCONNECTION - ASTRO FIBRE

Intermittent internet connection using LAN cable

Looks like there is something wrong with your service connection.

Please run a Ping Test, Traceroute Test and attach the picture or screenshot of both test results in the Feedback Form below, in order for us to provide further assistances.

Please ensure to attach the required screenshot(s) in ONE file (i.e. Microsoft Word document, PDF, Image file) before submitting the form.



Intermittent internet connection using Wi-Fi

  1. Router Positioning
    Most people underestimate the importance of picking a good spot for a Wi-Fi router. Even a small shift in positioning could end up being the difference between day and night.

     i) High vs. Low
    Put the router as high up as possible to extend the broadcasting range of the radio waves. This also helps clear the router of possible interferences.

    ii) Concrete & Metals
    Make sure your router isn't blocked by any other objects, especially devices that are electronic. Also, avoid placing your router in your basement as this area is usually enclosed by a lot of concrete, which can be almost impossible for Wi-Fi signals to penetrate.

    iii) Distance to Router
    The further away from your router you get, the weaker the Wi-Fi signal. Therefore, the best option is to place your router as close to your devices as possible, but this is only practical if you have one main area where you tend to use your devices.

    Otherwise, you should place your router near the center of your home. After all, Wi-Fi broadcasts in 360 degrees, so it doesn't make sense to put it at one end of the house.

     

  2. Wireless Interference & Noise
    You've probably never noticed but there are wireless signals all around you wherever you go and they're passing through you all the time. From where? Electronic devices, Wi-Fi routers, satellites, cell towers, and more.

    Although Wi-Fi is supposed to be on a different frequency than most of these devices, the amount of radio noise can still cause interference. Some common causes of interference include:
    i) Microwaves
    ii) Bluetooth Devices
    iii) Cordless Phone
     

  3.  Surrounding Wi-Fi signals
    A truth of the modern world is that every household has their own Wi-Fi network, which can cause issues with channel  overlap. This can be somewhat problematic in a townhouse, but is especially problematic in housing complexes and apartments where there can be many  routers within close proximity. Which is why it's important that you pick a good channel in your router settings. Modern routers can choose channels for you automatically, but sometimes it's better to investigate and find the best channel yourself.
  4. Usage
    More likely, however, is that the people on your network such as friends, roommates, or family members are participating in bandwidth-heavy activities like gaming and streaming Ultrabox/Netflix.
    Fortunately, if this is the case, you can prioritize your own network traffic by enabling Quality of Service in your router settings.


If the problem persists, please run a Ping Test, Traceroute Test and attach the picture or screenshot of both test results in the Feedback Form below, in order for us to provide further assistances.


Please make sure to attach the required screenshot(s) in ONE file (i.e. Microsoft Word document, PDF, Image file) before submitting the form.


Quick Info

I HAVE DECIDED TO CANCEL MY SUBSCRIPTION; WILL MY ADVANCE PAYMENT BE REFUNDED?

Yes, your advance payment will be fully refunded if you cancel your subscription before the Astro box installation. Please call Astro's Contact Centre at 03-9543 3838 for a refund. The refund process will take approximately 14 days for processing with your issuing bank. However, if you decide to cancel your subscription after the Astro box installation (during your contract period), the prorated early termination fee will apply.


9. I DID NOT UPDATE/CHECK MY EMAIL ADDRESS AND MOBILE NUMBER BEFORE 12 DECEMBER 2023; WHAT DO I DO NOW?

Firstly, you would have to retrieve your email address/mobile number. Please follow the steps in Q7 in order to do so. Then, follow the steps in Q5 and Q6 to check or update your contact details. Please use your updated email address or mobile number as your Astro ID to log in moving forward.

Note: Only Astro customers whose Astro ID is linked to their subscription can retrieve their Astro ID this way. Otherwise, you would need to create a new Astro ID.


I AM AN EXISTING ASTRO CUSTOMER; CAN I SIGN UP FOR THE NEW PACKS WITH ASTRO & BROADBAND?

Yes, existing Astro customers can subscribe to all Astro & Broadband offerings. 24 months contract will be renewed upon signing up for broadband.


WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF I DON'T MAKE PAYMENT BEFORE THE DUE DATE?

We wish to advise you to make your payment before the following month's bill is generated in order to avoid interruption in your viewing experience. Please note that to reconnect your subscription, there will be a charge of up to RM20 (excl. gov tax) upon reconnection, except for Commercial & Hotel customers.

I CAN'T CONNECT MY ULTRA PLUG & PLAY BOX TO WI-FI. WHAT SHOULD I DO TO FIX THIS?

Step 1: Separate Your Wi-Fi Network Name

First, you need to set up your Wi-Fi to Dual-band in order to be less susceptible to interference, and allows you to choose between the 2.4GHz or 5GHz bands when connecting a device. A Wi-Fi frequency of 5GHz is best when you are near your router, and 2.4GHz is best for when you are far from your router.

  • Check the bottom of your router for a website or IP address, username, and password.

Below are details for a standard login based on a standard router issued by ISP (Telekom Malaysia, Maxis, and Time dot Com)

  • Login to your account
  • Identify your Wi-fi Settings (This could be in advanced settings)
  • Identify both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz options.
  • Split the signals by renaming the 2.4GHz and 5GHz signals respectively, and make sure both are enabled.
  • For detailed instructions based on router model, on how to separate your Wi-Fi, click here and choose the option according to your ISP and router brand.

Step 2: Factory reset your Ultra Box by following the steps below.

a. Press the Home button on your remote

b. Go to your settings page

c. Scroll down and select Reset/Restore

d. Select restore factory settings and proceed

e. Enter your PIN to access restore factory settings (default pin: 0000)

f. Choose restore and wait until the box reboots automatically. This may take around 2 minutes and you will see the Astro logo again when it's done.
