They add another 8 Mbps for TV Streaming if u subscribe that meaning they won't throttled you as if u watch too much HDTV your quota will be fakap

I don't think they can separate bandwidth for your IPTV and your normal surfing

Meaning if you subscribe 20Mbps u will get additional 8Mbps extra bandwidth = 28Mbps bandwidth to max out

I'm not sure wether HSSB ip is static or dynamic if static get ready to get DMCA take down notice if u run utorrent inside your PC

I think they can and they should separate the bandwidth since IPTV is on VLAN.

I believe that for IPTV there are different price structure depending on which channel customers are subscribing like Astro, thus it's not fair to cap IPTV usage.

I don't think so

ISP's lease infrastructure all the time. I'm sure you'd love to believe that everyone has enough money to lay down their own backbone and charge low prices. Fact is, they can't. If they can use TM's infra and provide a better service than TM, then that alone is plenty of competition.

It's up to TM to ensure that the lines are working well and its in their own best interest to do so. It's not like they're gonna block the other ISPs, that's what the court is for.

TM doesn't have a monopoly, if they did they wouldn't need to lay down this line. The government may be aiding them, but they're providing a majority of the funding themselves.

There's no point in speculating what the cap is and how it's going to be managed. Wait for the announcement and take action from there.

“Star is delighted to announce our cooperation with TM Net. We believe our channels carried through IPTV will meet the various needs of Malaysian viewers,” said Daniel Cheung, CEO of STAR Taiwan.

Have to wait till after 7pm again?
All that hoo haa last night, and no price mention.

TM already has the packages for these users.
They are rumoured to have the following pricing.
5mb = RM150. 60 gb capped
10mb = RM199. 80gb capped
20mb = Rm249. 120gb capped.

If you subscribed to 60GB, they give you a speed of 5Mbps.
If you subscribed to 80GB, they give you a speed of 10Mbps.
If you want more, 120GB, they give you a speed of 20Mbps.

That means the more you subscribe, the higher speed you get.

I don't see anything special from your example.

xtido malam tadi tunggu harga...

It's interesting to see how many LYNs got 'nervous' and skeptical about this

Just wait for the package pricing and decide from there

still disappointed najib didnt make any announcement to reduce the price for current streamyx package
if the government want to make everybody using internet,then make it cheaper la

wat la najib......rm77 for 1mbps
reduce the price to rm40-50 la mr.superbijanman

later we spam his facebook

^ naise !

Speeds are higher but the prices are higher too, then median has not come down....sigh..

HSBB - pay less with caps. pay more to get more bandwidth
streamyx - expensive with no caps.

honestly, this broadband limiting measure is nonsensical. i much rather they give us an option for unlimited usage, but pay higher. fair usage my @$$. we pay more, they increase capacity. the math is really that simple.

Are the caps even confirmed?

probably one of the most exciting product here!!!..let's see the delivery now..

Malaysia mah .... they can't even have the site ready .....
