I am also getting upload speed 0.02 - 0.05 MBps..... complain till MCMC liao but they say my old cable problem...... which doesn't seems to be logical. I only experience slow upload speed during evening from 3 p.m. - 12 p.m. During the days, it was damn good..... Really running out of idea what could be the issue?

Any expert can help to enlighten what could be the possible problem?

i live in kepong area also..... cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif

I was experiencing normal download and similar upload speed as yours. They told me they fixed it by replacing the cable, so maybe you can just try? Otherwise just call TM to make a report.

I think I would apply for UNIFI tomorrow and replace with Fibre Optics...

When we first had Streamyx about 2 years ago, the speed was terrible and it disconnected almost continually. So I called TM and they sent around the engineers. Initially they had no clue what was wrong and hoped I would accept that nothing could be done! Eventually, however, when I pushed them they did further tests in the telephone centre of our apartment complex, and decided that the wiring was no good and that our connection would not improve until the wiring was upgraded. We told the complex maintenance manager about this, and he doubted they were right. He subsequently spoke to the engineers in person and on the phone several times, and they eventually admitted to him that the problem was most probably at their end, not ours. Any way, surprise surpirse, after a few weeks the service dramatrically improved without any rewiring being done, and has been a lot better ever since. Of course there are still periods when there are a lot of disconnections and when the speed is very slow, but in general by Malaysian standards it is tollerable.

So this rewiring thing is just one of their typical responses to try to deflect customers from the real source of the problem which I am pretty certain is almost always at TM. However, it is pretty scandalous that some customers get taken in by it and actually waste their money on the rewiring work.

Have to admit that my house (15 years) needs a rewiring as the cable do look pretty old and have been cut here and there before for some extension etc. Just to eliminate this, and since the technician says changing the cable might help, decided to take the call to have the cables in my house renew...

Still waiting for the nut to response back and revert....
