TM is one of the worst companies around. Run mostly by morons and idiots. The smart ones have already started to leave. Run fellas runnnnnnnn .........

Also on my shitlist of companies are Tenaga Nasional for having only 1 stinkin branch in the whole of PJ area.

DBPJ for their sucky workers who saman me while i was buying the parking ticket froma booth that actually works. (ss2)
after that i still have to go there to state just to show my parking ticket and my saman then only they cancel. damn sohai.

Thank you JPJ for allowing us to install our driving license into our MYKADS having to find out u can only renew it in PUTRAJAYA ...... and only PUTRAJAYA..... no pj state no bandar sri permiasuri nowhere else. That is if you want your driving license to continue on being inside your MYKAD...... YAY for the sohai's.

Terima Kasih dan tahniah saya mengucapkan kepada ahli ahli JKR yang telah menyebabkan saya menukar absorber kereta isteri saya dan kereta saya sendiri tiap 7 bulan. semua rim kereta saya bengkok kerana kerja anda yang cukup memuaskan.

There's more but i'll leave it as it is for now. Going out for dinner.

When i was in the 56k era... i couldn't BT vecause speds were so slow then and it costs a lot to go online.

No complaints from me.

Why?

Because TMNET is the only ISP besides Maxis offering broadband and they control almost all of the backbones and infrastructure in Malaysia.

they haven't provide the service for me

I voted for current government to provide us better services. Yet, they still pamper those GLC and give them to fully monopoly to Malaysia economy. And TM ( no more TMNet right? ) is the worst. Government gave them money to improve the service but what they do with the money? Pay a full-paid vacation to their directors? And yet, hired some dumb operator to talk about technical things. I believe, more person called the CS are more IT literate than those idiots.

Conclusion? TM sucks. Government sucks. People is always right.

i dun give a damn if i get what i get when i pay rm66 per month

coz before this, i have to pay like rm 200+ for a 56k that s used heavily

my torrent speed is acceptable, http speed is ok. what do i have to complain?

No offend but I am also a 56K user before, nope, a 33.6K user

I never learn the term BT until I get ADSL, in fact, I still keep the Jaring a/c. Even now I using ADSL, i seldom use BT anyway.
When the service first started, the connection is good, but now, they just keep add in more user without limiting the port usage until it is overload

I didn't ask for more, just don't d/c or high latency up to 800+ms. To be honest, until now, Jaring dialup gives me 400ms for online gaming even running smoother than streamyx 1mpbs

I miss this old rant thread. I just wanna rant on their lousy international links. I somehow cannot access all microsoft websites and services, and plenty of other international websites. I have to use australian proxies to get into those sites. And I can't sign in my live messenger! ~piff~

Ahhhhh, the good old days.... I wasn't that late through. I was the 33.6K era. The days where we played around with code strings to squeeze out that extra few bytes over the copper line.

Were you with Jaring or tmnet at that time?

The connection is so slow nowadays! We should collect RM5-RM10 from disgruntled users to pay for a full page ad to voice our displeasure in The Star.

I'm glad we got that stupid streamyx... at least I dont have to pay a lot like during the dial-up era... If you think that RM200 for it is high.. My normal usage during the dial-up era was RM800 min and RM1500 max... comparing now Rm77... i have save a lot...

I'm glad they did introduced the stupid broadband.. but they realllllllllllllyyyyy need to improve their damn little bandwith...

you are very young, aren't you? spending rm100+ on a dial-up is just like spending 2-3 hrs a day. when we irc on dial-up, we takes 5-7 hours.

conclusion: streamyx is heaven sent. although not that perfecto, but hey, it's either this or dial-up rite? besides, i got 1mbps line for rm66 and gets me 20 FLAC albums + 5 movies + 10 anime episodes + 100+ manga chapters a month. what more can i complain?
