I was having slow connection and not happy with the speed, at first they configured to 5Mb but the speed was not consistent... i call up again and ask whether they can cap it higher or not. i was lucky to spoke with one of the helpful technician in level 2.. i request for 6mb but he cap me to 8mb instead.

i was just upgraded yesterday.. should i wait a while before complaining or just instantly? im planning to wait max 1 week b4 i called them back..

300+?!

the higher SNR reading i saw is only about 40-50dB
*
maybe he means 30++.. 300++ was out of the range i guess..

Yeah, just wait for a while and see how your speed first.

and i was wondering.. is there a difference between the BM and English option during the 100 call? i usually called and picked the BM language.. if i were to call and chose english, would the tech be speaking in english too? i know this sounds silly.. but maybe an english speaking operator and 2nd level tech has better common sense and knowledge bout what they are doing.. some of them which i spoke were obviously 70% lazy and lost T_T

the installer came to my house today and brought some bullsh*t along with him..

he said my area cannot support 2MB or 4MB...the silly thing is my connection is now 2MB (Speedtest.net results 1.65MB+/-)

so if i'm already getting 2MB speed how can it be that my house cannot support 2MB?
*
how can he came to ur place and say its not supported when tm point approved it in the 1st place.. usually tm point knows best about the area.. If they said that there would be an installing coming by, it means that to check either ur connection (home line quality) supports it via ur DSL readings.. weird..
must be a noob installer indeed..

Probably some smart asses decided that they're smart enough and switch you to 4096 .. nothing much you could do other than to call them back again and asking that they put back the speed at 5120.
*
or is there any auto reset function on the ipdslam?

wiraone, hows urs.. u have been cap raised ait.. does it return back to 4096? or it remains.. n r u on premium ip? ive just check that im only getting 218.xx ip now after several restarts but still my cap is at 4096 (i asked them for a recap this morning).

218.111 and 218.208 both have routing issue to europe..

dude, is this very common or it rarely happen.. if this is very common that premium ips have routing issues, i would suffer as i download mostly from UK&US servers.. dammit.. icon_question.gif

doesnt it also depends the uploader? try downloading from other website, try to download a ati gfx driver from ati website i usually get full download speeds from there.
*
i understand what ur trying to deliver but i cant possibly survive downloading stuffs only on ati websites... lmao.. best effort basis for 4mb 80% is 3.2Mb.. if it cant be achieved, then we as a consumer should launch a report to ensure that we are getting it. And achieving is possible but we can only launch a complain if its under the best effort level. Using 4mb surely we intend to get the max out of it.

ive just called them 5min ago on my report that i launched yesterday, they told me that there is a remark yesterday by the tech that my port was upgraded to 5120 already yesterday but it still shown as 4096 on my modem. seems like there is a technical error sumwhere being accidentally done as they say that my modem should be detecting 5120 already.


Added on January 20, 2010, 10:44 amthey have just called me back and ask me to run a speedtest once again on the spot...

ive just called them to put me on normal ip flock.. they told me that the procedure is too long and also they will be afraid that i would be complaining back to them once im on normal ip but getting shitty speed.. haih..

instead, they told me to send them a ping plotter result to their email.. whats the best ip address (or urls) should i trace as a benchmark to prove that the premium ip sucks ey? any idea guys..

Im currently on premium IP and sometimes my downloads are fast sometimes slow.
But when im on premium IP, youtube streaming is very fast, which is what i couldn't get when on normal ip =/ hmm...

routing to google related servers (youtube etc) perhaps is ok maybe cuz they have many mirrors of it and u will be directed to the nearest.. but to certain specific servers to the europe its not good.. how long has it been already or the prob is still new?

huhu.. i have made a report on the routing issues.. i gave them a pingplotter result to battle.net (blizzard gaming server UK) and also Skype (VOIP luxemburg). Both of the test results shows bad routing and massive packet lost. Im on premium IP btw. Its either they will fix sumthing about the premium ip or maybe they will revert me back to the normal ip flock. What do u guys think they will do? or maybe they will just do nothing.. lol

Waa, today a streamyx technician came to my house to upgrade my line to 4mbps. my house is 2.6km away from my line's exchange point and like 500 meters away from the closest exchange point.

I was using 1mbps plan capped at 1.5mb, and usually I get around 170~190kbps download speed then TM cut my Internet for two days in the process of upgrading to 4mbps. The line was back yesterday at 6pm and I was happy that I could download stuff at 230kbps without dropping(I've downloaded lots of stuff.)

So this morning I was lurking around 4ch but I noticed the page and pictures load very very slow compared to yesterday. Then I did some speedtest and this is what I get

the downstream speed barely reaches 500kbps and I was like wtf. I tried to ping my gameserver from germany and I usually get around 250ms stable, now it's spiking from 550ms to no respond.

Idk whats the problem because last night I checked my line was 2mb or something close to that since I could download files at 230kbs stable speed with no disconnection until I went to bed

Today at 2pm The technician arrived with his own modem, after he login with his account, he couldnt open any website at all "the page load problem". he checked the line stats, and I'm only getting -0.1dB snr when I'm not that far from the xchange point >_>. 6dB line attenusomething. My DS rate is 34.. and US rate 890+. He said the phone is normal without noise.

He said that he'll make a report and teleports away.

after he blah away, I plug the line back into my modem and go online. But wtf, I'm not getting the Page Loading problem now but with slow speed as before.

my ZTE modem and Tenda router are both fakap, I can't check the line stats with these cheap plastics.

the sad story is, I can't upgrade to 4mbps and I don't live 2.99km away from the exchange point.

I never had any disconnection and rarely get very slow unstable speed with my 1mbps line before. I've always gotten 170~190kbps dl speed and stable 250ms pings to my gameserver.

dude.. isnt the SNR are supposed to be above 15dB for a decent connection? urs are -0.1dB which is negative! .. Seems bad or either thats the output power ur saying which is possible to be negative.

Attainable Rate (Kbps): 16040  1292

however my ip adress is 60.53  shakehead.gif 
i thought 4mb line only 115 / 218 as mentioned by all 4mb users ?

do not immediately request for the premium ip.. if u somehow wish to get a better speed which is by raising ur cap limit to 5120 and above, they will surely set ur ip to premium 1st.. same as mine when i subscribe to 4mb in the 1st week.. they didnt set mine to premium ip until i complained for a higher cap cuz im not getting the 80% best effort basis
