Condo Management Blocks Maxis Fibre? What You Can Do (2026)

Some condo residents find that Maxis Fibre installation is blocked by management or the JMB/MC. This usually relates to building policy, approved providers, or concerns about drilling and cabling.

Why Condo Management Blocks Fibre Installation

  • Only selected fibre providers are approved
  • Building design does not allow new cabling
  • Concerns over wall drilling or common areas
  • No fibre riser or internal pathway
  • Past damage incidents by installers

Step 1: Confirm Approved Providers List

Ask your management office whether Maxis is on the approved ISP list. Some condos allow fibre only through pre-installed infrastructure.
