Following the enforcement of the new MSAP, Maxis has finally unveiled its revised home fibre broadband plans. Besides giving a price cut and making 100Mbps the minimum mainstream fibre broadband offering, the green telco has also introduced its new 1Gbps and 2Gbps fibre plans to the public. Maxis also claims that it is the first telco in Malaysia to offer 2Gbps fibre broadband with a WiFi 6E router.
The 2Gbps Maxis Home Fibre plan costs RM319/month and it comes with a Premium WiFi 6E-certified router. The 2Gbps plan offers an upload speed of up to 1Gbps.
According to the FAQ, Maxis’ bundled WiFi 6E router lets you enjoy 2Gbps bandwidth over LAN and up to 1.8Gbps over WiFi. With WiFi 6E, users can expect faster and more reliable wireless connection as it offers a tri-band of 2.4GHz, 5GHz and 6GHz. To take advantage of WiFi 6E, you’ll need WiFi 6E-compatible devices that support the 6GHz band. The WiFi 6 router also supports EashMesh R2 function which allows you to add on Max WiFi (RM29/month) for wider coverage for your home.
Meanwhile, the 1Gbps option costs RM249/month and it comes bundled with a WiFi 6-certified router along with free Max WiFi Mesh nodes (worth RM29/month). The 1Gbps fibre broadband plan comes offers upload speeds of up to 500Mbps.
If you need to make lots of calls, Maxis offers unlimited voice calls with a free DECT Phone if you add RM10/month.
As usual, these fibre broadband plans are tied to a 24-month contract. You can also add device bundles such as Smart TVs, PlayStation 5, Laptops and iPads on a 36-month or 24-month Zerolution instalment plan.
