INTERNET INTERMITTENT OR FREQUENT DISCONNECTION - ALLO

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 WiFi
  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.
    • 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.
    • 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 WiFi signals to penetrate.
    • 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, WiFi 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,  WiFi routers, satellites, cell towers, and more.
    • Although WiFi 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:
      1. Microwaves
      2. Bluetooth Devices
      3. Cordless Phone
  3. Surrounding Wi-Fi signals
    • A truth of the modern world is that every  household has their own WiFi 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
A Ping Test shows how long it takes for packets to reach host.
A Traceroute Test traces the route of packets to destination host from our server.

IS SERVICE TAX IMPOSED ON CUSTOMERS RESIDING IN LABUAN, LANGKAWI AND TIOMAN?

Yes, the current service tax law does not exempt services provided to customers residing in Labuan, Langkawi, and Tioman.


CAN CUSTOMERS REQUEST TO HAVE BOTH THE PAPER BILL AND E-BILL AT THE SAME TIME?

No, customers are only allowed to choose ONE billing option (either Paper Bill or E-bill or SMS bill). However, customers who opted for Paper Bill will still be able to check their bills through Astro Self-Service Portal, IVR, Channel 200 and WhatsApp.

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

A Speedtest is a service that provides free analysis of Internet access  parameters, such as connection data rate.

A Ping Test shows how long it takes for packets to reach host.

A Traceroute Test traces the route of packets to destination host from our server.
