Vratenza Supersonic June 7, 2018 Share June 7, 2018 I am also affected.... Discovery group of channels, HGTV, Food Network etc are the main reason why I have not terminated by cable TV yet after so many years with SH. If they are gone, it's an easy decision to cut the subscription. https://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/starhub-may-stop-airing-discovery-network-channels-from-july-10397834 Can't find thread on SH terminating Discovery and other channels...Anyone here affected? ↡ Advertisement 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Starhub HomeHub subscription almost due for renewal. Looks like no reason to continue now. May as well go IPTV using fast fibre speeds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jman888 Moderator June 12, 2018 Share June 12, 2018 What's your current setup? fiber for broadband and cable for tv in living and bedroom, they want to upgrade my plan to fiber but need to lay another trunking to the room. That is the deal breaker cos i dun want another trunking unless they can use back the same tv cable. I checked with starhub technician but they cannot promise cos it is up to the contractor who install the cable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Fibre modem, it is connected out via ethernet cable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked with starhub technician but they cannot promise cos it is up to the contractor who install the cable. I faced the same irks as you previously but have since upgraded to fibre with 2 wifi mesh, i.e. apart from termination point to modem, the rest is wireless. Speed is more than enough. Edit: Oh yours also got TV that I am not sure. Mine is pure internet. Depending on area and obstacle may need to add more meshes.

Fibre is very small, thin, so that's usually not the problem. Coax and ethernet cable takes up much more space. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fiber line will be connected to the modem in the living room, they will lay the ethernet cable to the room, the current trunking only have the starhub antenna cable which will be redundant and pull out after i switch to fiber. Some how their sales and their technical people cannot advice if that can be done. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
