Monopoly... Can't compare services like p1W1Max, Maxis, Umobile, Digi and etc cos they aren't broadband..
the stability isn't there. So, TM is a monopoly whether you like it or not, that is a simple truth.

I used to be a student in Singapore, my landlady had a 3mbps Starhub plan which is something like SGD20+ btw, that is shared by 7 users and I get it on wireless via the router and I still get download speeds around 200-300kbps.

I'm back home now, my plan is 1MBPs @ RM110... and what's my dl speed? and I'm on cable here man, not routered wireless.
max... 150kbps... wth?

where is 10mbps? this is such a decent speed for todays' users lor..
1mbps was 'wow' like freaking 4 years ago...

This is not a small problem, its expensive to have broadband, when it is expensive, ppl opt to not have it or have very slow ones.
Where is info and knowledge from these days? well for me, it's really the internet via googling.
This Monopoly is not only sucking money out of ppl's pockets, it's limiting the growth of the Malaysian Cyber society as a whole...

This sucks...period.
