i tried loggin on sunday near pavilion but the server is not responding at all...

i think this is juz for deco purposes....

Every time I've tried this week I have gotten a message that the service is down for maintenance. Maybe they gave up.

This is not the correct "tree"? Read this http://web7.bernama.com/bernama/v3/news_lite.php?id=361318

The news state it's WIMAX provided by P1 not Wifi.

Saw their notice on their website regarding to service upgrade of WiMAX sites two nights ago. Maybe it solves the problem now.

Wimax meant to cover a bigger area not somethin' like hotspot. So, in my opinion Wireless@kl is not a type of Wimax service, it is just a gimmick by P1 whereby they put a wireless router at location where you basically have to "pay" to enter the strategic location e.g at Dome KLCC.

The real Wimax is when you able to log to internet eventhough you are inside your car driving around KLCC area.

So, don't expect to get wireless internet service while you are relaxing at KLCC park. For the time being, I'm still thinking that Wireless@kl is a joke! I would rather sit at KFC and enjoy their wireless service. Here is the joke from wireless@kl :
