The Ultra Plug & Play self-install box is being released at a critical juncture in the country’s history, when customers may want to limit installation visits to their homes. Because the Astro content is streamed over broadband, this box does not require a satellite dish.

Meanwhile, customers can activate their subscription on the Astro GO app and enjoy all of their entitlement with the Astro GO pre-access service while waiting for the Ultra Plug & Play Box to be delivered to their homes.

The Ultra Plug & Play Box works best when combined with Astro & Broadband bundles for greater savings and the convenience of a single bill. New Astro customers can sign up for Super Pack Lite and 100 Mbps internet speed and receive monthly rebates of up to RM45, while existing Super Pack Lite customers can add 100Mbps broadband for only RM89. The Ultra Plug & Play Box activation is free for all Broadband customers on any plan.
