The internet will be throttle or data cap definitely....

I don't think it applies to iptv and stuff.

Of course. Even comcast caps it at 250GB per month. Use more than that, they cancel your account and ban you.

Nah iptv capping is ridiculous.If suddenly forgot to switch off or watch iptv 24/7 then internet no need use liao?

Damn it where is the pricing....

Bingo you got it right so better don't forget to off the iptv.

Wow if that's the case I'd rather go for Astro Byond which has no limitation on watching time...
But once you subscribe HSBB, it comes with IPTV, Phone and HSI... Trapped...

any dependable sources say that iptv will be throttled when the bandwith is exceeded?

Lagging 1080p TV ?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

If you guys read things carefully, IPTV and the internet are completely separated. So no, IPTV does not affect your internet.

That's what i thought...throttle iptv wtf.....doesn't make sense.

You guys need to understand how Triple Play service works

IPTV and Voice would not be affected at all , so you dont have to worry about your IPTV or Voice once you've hit your data limit (assuming TM enforces it , I bet they will enforce it). The moment you have IPTV , you can watch progammes on demand , something like from hulu or how BBC iPlayer actually works - provided if TM plans to take on this route !

So far the trial IPTV already fakap n discontinued until they fix it

since like more and more trial user now....

IPTV on fixed line is definitely doable and will be the future. Hope they will continue to provide the service as major competitor with ASTRO!

Well done. My hats off to you

Added on February 24, 2010, 6:25 amI'm not a tester, but looking from the hardware review their saying it's limited in simultaneous connections which benefit torrent downloads

Yeah that speed does look good, but isn't it logical it could be better with a better router for more connection with peers.



Regarding iptv didn't someone mention something about it using your internet connection ? So say 50% is for internet usage, and the other 50% is for IPTV o_O: Then how about when your not using Iptv ???? Can you also not get the iptv so you can utilize 100% for internet only ?

I saw TM contractors fixing up the HSBB thing at my street recently in TTDI How do i sign up for the trial? Will I be able to revert back to my usual internet connection if im not satisfied with it? Need to pay more for this trial? Thanks

What channel does HSBB provide for IPTV ?
HDTV1 HDTV2 and HDTV3 ?

after 1 week of trial.. quite satisfied with my torrent speed.. could manage to get on average 2Mbytes/sec. Pretty impressive.. but browsing speed sometimes got few hiccups but not that bad... if TM implement the data Cap.. hope its around 250Gb per month..huhu...

They are going to install at my house tomorrow at 9.30am
They say it will take the whole day.

My question is.. will it really take the whole day?



Because I need to run to office at 2:30pm

I don't think they will count the data from IPTV to the overall bandwidth usage per month.

Furthermore, IPTV data stream will be purely local and its servers etc will mostly located in Klang Valley. So i don't think IPTV will be throttled or lagged (assuming if equipment didn't breakdown )

Internet will be for internet. IPTV will be for IPTV. There is more than enough bandwidth capacity of the fiber to support both. At minimum, fiber are able to achieve 100mbps. HDTV requires only about 5-10 mbps of bandwidth

But the package is 10mb isn't it ? So the Iptv will be using a slice of that 10mb am i right

Theres also 2 types of ftth which are GPOn and GEPON. The more expensive one can handle simultaneously iptv and internet without one effecting the other. We are using the cheaper variant which means iptv will fight for bandwidth with internet usage for your pc unless its some sort of fixed or dyanmic cap which i was trying to figure out.
