Weird situation, speed was slow. THEN....

RADIUS server down, DNS unreachable...

But when using other DNS, speed was at maximum...
Any hypothesis on what happened? ...

Mine (hater's view) : Because RADIUS had failed and DNS overload, TM engineers panic and thought that by turning off the throttling will help improve the situation. but it did not. however, we the SMART ones used other DNS and managed to take advantage of their "off-throttling"

OR

(positive view)
They really are finally giving us what we pay for ; )

under tm dns:


under openDNS:

I think yours is capped at 1024 rather than 1536. Some users are lucky they got 1536kbps.

You want to  know why we are getting fast speed

It's because the whole of Malaysia Streamyx users got DNS problem, how many of them will know it's a DNS problem if they do not come here and see our threads? Those people will only know if it get through TM's call center and are informed by TM. Come on, even in the main page of this forum,, it says..."Most users ever online was 4,779 on May 4 2009, 10:46 PM"

Malaysia has how many thousands/million? of streamyx users. We are getting fast speed because we are switching to another DNS. While the rest that dont know its a DNS problem will not be able to connect and use the bandwidth. Thats why, we are actually using the extra bandwidth that is left by those users that cant connect or did not change their DNS
