Sounds good. Guys, how to upgrade thru this page?

https://mips.tm.net.my/SelfCare/

I only can upgrade my 512kbps to 1mbps but there is no option about the promo thing. Only the usual plan of RM88. :S
*
Call 100. Also Upgrade to 2 & 4 mbps can only be done at TM point.

Beware. Maybe next year 1mbps drop price? Instead of now pay RM88, pay RM77? You know lah the government want to increase internet penetration and to do that they have to low the prices, not increase the prices while giving 'higher' speeds.

I'm about to go to TMpoint to get myself the 4Mb deal..I'm currently using 2Mb now...are you sure in it capped like that?...I'm in JB

2mbps is good enough already. TM Net has been throttling flv streaming (youtube and similar) and rapidshare. It makes HSBB pointless, meaningless and worthless.

Previously using 1Mb line...last 2 weeks upgrade to 2mb line..need to pay RR88 for installation and get Wifi modem.

Today, with the new package, went to upgrade from 2mb to 4mb...they say need to pay another RM88...

Didn't take...no regrets...well...maybe next time got better package....
Spot on bro..Spot on..

need opinion..my 512 serve me quite well for years..good ping..stable connection..good ip..up to 70kbps download..rs no throttle..is it really worth upgrade to 1mb? scare my connection after upgrade worse..
*
1 mbps is confirmed good to use. 2mbps and 4mbps have very few users to confirm worth it or not after considering the throttling that TM Net has been doing and that my 1mbps also susah to max out at night.

i feel that TM has been screwing us over and over again. and they're still screwing my ass and i let them do it with joy.
I just called the tm billings department and told them recently i found out they have rolled out a new promotion package which offers 1Mb streamyx line for RM71 after the fifth month. I told them i'm currently paying rm88 for my 1mb streamyx line. so i told him i want to switch to this new package. they told me that the rm71 package is only available for new upgrade users. then i told him, i've been using streamyx since it first came out at rm99 for 1mb and i change to rm88 for 1mb after 2 years. now you've got a new package, i want to take advantage of that new deal. they person told me he can't do that. So i asked him, can you explain to me why existing streamyx users, who has used streamyx for more than 5 years, has to pay rm88 for a 1mb line when a new user can get 1mb for only rm71? he couldnt answer me. i told the person it doesnt make any sense to me why long time users are paying more compared to new subscribers. he keep on insisting this package is from users who upgrade from 512kbps or 384kbps. i think i'm going to the tm centre tomorrow to bang table lah. this is stupid.
*
My exact thoughts but if TM Net reduce price then they lose $$$ that's why they don't want to reduce the price of 1mbps but seriously they should at least auto upgrade all 1mbps users to 2mbps and all 512 to 1mbps instead of this crap.

Maybe we should report to MCMC because this kind of promo makes existing 1mbps users into suckers.

depends on how you set up your computer. some people are able to bypass throttling. i'm using a torrent program for downloads with my 1mb line, i'm getting 170kBps download speed all day as long as the torrent is well seeded.
*
That's an exception. I know they throttled p2p and tried to throttle rapidshare. Even now they are throttling all flv streaming (youtube, tv3.com, ntv7.com, 8tv.com and similar) so anything more than 1mbps is pointless.

Is there a new contract if you downgrade? If not, find out if you can downgrade to 512K, then when that is done, upgrade to 1M at RM71? Not sure if it will work...

Yesterday night I saw the ad and I called Tm at 1 this morning  tongue.gif
I'm not using the modem package and currently I'm paying 88 for 1MB line
So I talked to my dad and he said we should try the promotion and pay 110 for 2MB
Since I'm living in the same house for 16 years and used streamyx for 5years+
I'm living in Subang and the internet never seem to fail me
No connection error, server down or anything. My internet is connected 24/7
And also since I am a heavy user. Torrent like mad, surf net,games
The fibre optic white box is directly infront of my window  rclxms.gif
No one in my row uses streamyx that much. All of them only use for work  laugh.gif
Should I go to their office or call them via phone? brows.gif
What is the normal speed you guys get for 2Mb?
I can torrent a movie within 2 hours with 1mb line
*
Upgrade to 2-4mbps can only be done at TM Point. and read this http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1236557/+160

Average for 1mb I can do is 110. Is it normal?
Wanted to do 2mb but my dad called and he say 20 ringgit difference with 2 and 4
He wants 4  brows.gif So now my house is with 4mb without the tmnet modem
As I am using the Prolink (H9300G). Can it support 4mb? I its a modem/router
The Prolink is in my sister's room and a wire is link to my room
That wire linked from my sister's room I plug to my own router
Will by router be able to support?
How long exactly do I need to wait for the 4mb to take place? 2 weeks?  laugh.gif

2-4 mbps comes with tm net modem.

hi,
I'm from Sg Dua Butterworth. I just retrieve the SNR statistics from my Linksys AM300 ADSL modem as below;

-DSL Modulation Mode: Auto 
-DSL Path Mode: FAST 
-Downstream Rate: 1536 Kbps 
-Upstream Rate: 512 Kbps 

Does it mean the max package I can go is 1MB line? I'm currently using 1MB unlimited Streamyx. Is it possible to go for 2MB line?

Thanks again for your advice.

No.
Yes.
