Quick answer

Which Maxis Fibre speed should you choose?

For many homes, 300Mbps is already enough. Choose 500Mbps if your home has more people, many connected devices, gaming and work-from-home happening together. Choose 1Gbps if you want premium speed and your WiFi/router/mesh setup can actually support heavier usage.

Use case guide

Which speed matches your home?

📺

300Mbps — balanced family plan

Good for daily home usage: streaming, online class, video calls, browsing, social media and casual gaming.

  • 1–2 smart TVs
  • Work-from-home calls
  • Normal family usage
🎮

500Mbps — heavier home

Better when several users are online at the same time and your home has many connected devices.

  • Gaming + streaming together
  • CCTV, tablets, laptops, phones
  • More speed headroom
🚀

1Gbps — premium setup

Best when your household wants premium speed and your router/mesh/devices can make use of it.

  • Large home with mesh
  • Creators and heavy downloads
  • Many simultaneous users
Upgrade warning

When upgrading speed is not the real fix

A faster plan will not fix every problem. If your issue is WiFi signal, router placement or weak room coverage, upgrade the WiFi setup first.

Do not upgrade yet if

The router area is fast but bedrooms are slow, the router is hidden in a cabinet, you are far from the router, or only WiFi is slow.

Upgrade if

Your whole home regularly maxes out the plan, many users are streaming/gaming/working together, and your WiFi setup is already good.

If fibre is fast near the router but slow in some rooms, read the slow WiFi guide before upgrading speed. Adding Max WiFi by Maxperts mesh (from RM19/month) often solves room coverage better than a faster plan.
Current campaign angle

FAQ

Maxis Fibre 300 vs 500 vs 1Gbps FAQ

Should a normal family choose 300Mbps or 500Mbps?

300Mbps is usually enough for many normal family homes. Choose 500Mbps if your household has more users, heavier streaming, gaming, CCTV, cloud backup or many devices online together.

Is 1Gbps overkill?

For light users, yes. For large homes, creators, heavy downloaders, many simultaneous users or homes with strong WiFi/mesh setup, 1Gbps can make sense. 1Gbps also includes a WiFi 7 router and, on the Postpaid Bundle, the biggest lifetime rebate at RM90/month.

Why is my WiFi slow even on 500Mbps or 1Gbps?

WiFi speed depends on router placement, device capability, WiFi band, distance, walls and interference. If only certain rooms are slow, fix WiFi coverage before upgrading speed. Adding Max WiFi by Maxperts mesh (from RM19/month) is often the better fix.

Why is 300Mbps RM99 on this page but RM129 on standalone pricing?

RM99 is the Postpaid Bundle price, which also comes with a lifetime RM40/month rebate while the bundle stays active. RM129 is the Standalone price, with a 24-month rebate only. The Postpaid Bundle requires an eligible Maxis Postpaid plan on the same account.

Which plan gets the iPad, tablet or TV option?

During Merdeka Converge Deals, 500Mbps customers can choose Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Lite at RM1/month, or Samsung 55" 4K UHD TV at RM10/month (check current availability). 1Gbps customers can choose iPad 11" at RM1/month, or Samsung 65" 4K UHD TV at RM10/month (check current availability). 300Mbps customers get FREE 3 Months only, with no device option; devices may be added at Zerolution add-on pricing. Subject to eligibility and stock.

What's the difference between the Samsung 55" TV (RM10/mth) and the Samsung 65" + Soundbar?

They are two separate rewards. The Samsung 55" 4K TV (RM10/mth) is available as an add-on for eligible 500Mbps sign-ups. The Samsung 65" 4K TV + FREE Soundbar is a separate premium bundle for 1Gbps sign-ups, also at RM10/mth (check current availability). You pick one reward, not both.

300Mbps vs 500Mbps vs 1Gbps: Common Questions

FAQ

Which plan should I pick if I want a free device instead of 3 months free?

Only 500Mbps (RM139) and 1Gbps (RM159) with Maxis postpaid qualify for the RM1/month device option. 500Mbps gets a Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Lite or Samsung 55" 4K UHD TV at RM10/mth, while 1Gbps gets an iPad 11" or Samsung 65" 4K UHD TV at RM10/mth (limited stock). The 300Mbps RM99 plan only qualifies for the FREE 3 months reward, not the device — so if a device matters, go 500Mbps or above.

Is 1Gbps worth RM159 over 500Mbps at RM139?

The RM20 difference gets you double the speed plus a WiFi 7 router instead of WiFi 6, and access to the Samsung TV or iPad 11" reward tier. If you don't need WiFi 7 or the higher-tier device, 500Mbps at RM139 already covers most households well. Choose 1Gbps mainly if multiple users stream/game simultaneously or you specifically want the iPad/Samsung TV (subject to stock).

What if I don't have a Maxis postpaid line?

Without a Maxis line, pricing is different: 100Mbps RM89, 300Mbps RM129, 500Mbps RM149, and 1Gbps RM249. Roadshow sign-ups still get FREE 3 months, but the RM1/month device reward is exclusive to Maxis postpaid bundles — no stacking either way.

No fibre port at my address — can I still get these speeds?

Yes, 5G Home WiFi is uncapped and needs no fibre port, priced at RM69, RM79, or RM109, with a free router and free TNG credit up to RM200 (promo ends 30 September 2026). It won't match fibre's stability at peak hours, but it's a fast fallback — check coverage via WhatsApp before switching.
