So you're working part-time now to cover your expenses ? hmm.gif

Anyway the 7 days return policy should apply only to the new subscribers.

which means lucky for me.. im neither here nor there now,
anyone can tell me the advantages of celcom over maxis(besides the fact that it is able to torrent)?

coz right now i really dont see any difference lor... probably the hardware wise maxis has more advantage coz the bulky one im using runs on a rj-45(LAN) which can be hooked up to a hub/switch and shared easily.. these celcom usb modems are pretty neat if you travel alot and have a lappy.. but it gets rather complicated if you want to share the conn with other pc's using ICS sigh...

Only selling things on Internet that also I'm kinda lazy. tongue.gif Well, PTPTN gives some extra money for our tuition fees so I just use that money as my pocket money. If really dry up already, I have to open my mouth to ask from parents but not much around RM 150-250 the most. smile.gif

OK, thanks. biggrin.gif

Then you shouldn't be lazy, work hard to get more income for the D98. biggrin.gif

Anyway as a student I think whatever connection is sufficient enough to be used in the campus as long as it isn't a dial-up connection that costs a bomb when used frequently.

laugh.gif I think D68 is kinda sufficient to me now. tongue.gif

Yeah, actually I have free connection at my apartment but the connection gets slower as days pass. doh.gif
Complained for endless times but no action has been taken, I can't take it anymore as I need to do my Final Year Project and lots of research articles and journals are waiting for me to read them. sweat.gif
So, Celcom 3G is the best for me as Streamyx is not so good, we have holidays and I go back quite often to my hometown, quite wasteful if I install Streamyx.

Yea luckily Celcom Broadband works for you especially when you are getting decent speeds with the D68 plan, some unlucky ones are getting around <100kbps and that's bad.

I only use XunLei for big BT files, more than 500MB. It hogs up a lot of bandwidth and I hardly can surf the Internet though I have put the limit for download and upload speed. sad.gif

After all XunLei is known to be a "selfish" torrent program so it is no surprise that it hogs up the bandwidth, however limiting a lower connection value and also the upload speed will help. smile.gif

as i got from the celcom people, celcom and streamyx dun share the same pipe within malaysia. they all join at MYIX, then go out of malaysia on the same pipe.

so, those bt mysteries could be that, those seeds/shares within malaysia will get a good speed, whereas overseas gets stuck.


Added on May 2, 2008, 8:37 am(WTF) looking for the magazine some time ago that compares the broadband speed between maxis and celcom around malaysia. Need it to do my report.
