But if they have quality 120gb I wont mind la, like lowest ping, no disconnection, drops and etc.. Will greatly benefit the MMORPG-ers..

What happened when you exceed the cap? drop to 1mbps? or 64kbps like Australia?
Anyone have ping result?

What interface are they using? Optical?

Local in malaysia sure. But international subpar speed, no where near 80%

So even if you ignore the speed cap ratio bullshit, you still get nothing to pay for it because international speed is still gonna suck rolleyes.gif ( i saw the beta results, so i have a general idea ).

Ok, this is the summary of najib's speech yesterday for those who missed it.

QUOTE
During the launch of TM HSBB’s UniFi, Malaysia PM Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak has announced the anticipated broadband goodies. The 6 Broadband Initiatives are:

    * Implementation of Broadband Community Centres in Housing Areas
      RM60 million allocated to provide broadband to 246 areas with total of 615,000 people
    * Set up of People’s Internet Centre  at Information Department branches
      Allow internet access to estimated 400,000 people
    * E-Kiosks at various community centres and Mukim Offices
      costing RM4 million
    * Expansion of Telco’s cellular coverage
      338 in West Malaysia, 278 in Sabah and 257 in Sarawak
    * RM1 Billion allocated from USP Funds (Universal Service Provision) for notebook purchase for needy students
    * Reduction of Netbook Broadband Package
      RM38/month from previous RM50/month. Offer in USP areas reduced to RM20/month.


These are part of the National Broadband Initiative that aims to hit 50% Broadband Penetration in Malaysia by 2010.

i've highlighted the part in regards to price reduction. Najib considers this his promise fullfiiled when he promised us cheaper broadband shakehead.gif

DUMB FCUK THAT USE CAPS ALL THE WAY,DOES HE KNOWS THAT IT'S EQUIVALENT TO SCREAMING AT PEOPLE??????
You know, someone actually got fired for using caps in their office correspondence.

To me getting pissed off about caps is silly, but it's generally understood when people are capsing they are giving off a bad attitude doh.gif

Hey all, new here.  rclxms.gif

Before I start, I am not here to point fingers at anyone cause I think all of us are guilty of some parts of what I say below at some point. This is my general opinion so please don't get all worked up over it.  icon_rolleyes.gif

I really cannot understand what you guys are complaining about. This CAP structure is being used in other places too. I worked in Sydney for close to 4 years. I had an Optus (Singtel jv) 20Mbps link which I had for as long as I lived there. I always had full speed and probably only 2 outages in 4 years. Guess what the CAP was 20GB peak and 40GB off peak.

I worked a lot from home using VPN to various sites. I always found the time to game and did so quite a bit over the weekends. I also downloaded quite a bit of stuff every month on my media centre rig. With the exception of 2 months I never hit the CAP otherwise.

As bad as TM is I am happy for this new launch. Sure the prices could be better (who wants to pay high prices for anything) but I think the CAP is not such a big issue as most of you here are complaining about.

Lets admit it you can't be expecting to download the entire Internet into your local desktop. For every one you there is 10 casual users out there who wont hit the CAP (if they do I stand corrected). We are meant to share the bandwidth not hog it. One of the reasons Streamyx is slow is because of all the P2P hogging out there. You can't set of 10 BT downloads and go out with your GF while some poor bugger in a different part of town is trying to download a 1MB file from Windows update. How is that fair? Sure TM should probably get more International bandwidth but the likelihood of that happening is small at least not anytime soon. In the meantime we should learn to be fair to fellow users.

Honestly think about it for a second, there is 2 many users hogging the line which affects everyone else. I have a Streamyx 4Mbps and at most times its run fine but on weekends during peak hours it can get really slow. Now I wonder why??

On a side note while we ponder about this CAP issue, I am sure there are plenty of applications for Unifi already. Do not underestimate people's need for more Internet, most people just going to close one eye and ignore the CAP.
Cheers!  cool2.gif

You make some sense. In fact, i agree that cap WILL prevent abuse from excessive downloaders. What i don't agree is with tmnuts definition of what constitutes as an excessive downloader.

This hsbb cap size is too small and unreasonable for the pricing they are asking for.


And another thing, from what i understand, local bandwidth shouldn't be an issue, so why is that counting towards our bandwidth quota ??? Don't you also think that is uneccessary and unfair? Looks to me that they just want to fill up our quota for us as quickly and needlessly as possible doh.gif

Also your reason for justifying their cap is that our internet will be faster. Well local for sure (although sources say we have plenty of local bandwidth we won't be congested ), but international will not be as fast :/ Don't take my word for it, go ask the beta trialers how fast are speeds to US and Europe doh.gif

And those people who pay 249 for the 20mb will have to keep paying that price even if they do drop for new customers. This has happened before ..... vmad.gif

I've physically been to indonesia. You do not want to be compared to them cry.gif Lots of power cuts and their roads are crap.

We may as well start comparing to zimbabwe

Believe it or not, you're wrong. The IPTV box has its own IP address in a different VLAN.

Is this because there is a separate wire for iptv ??? earlier someone posted a picture that showed 2 wires why is that biggrin.gif

I phoned up this number 1300881222 and asked if my place has unifi, and they said no. They check their unifi website but they cannot find availability for my place.

But when i told them i found it on their site locator and it said it was available, they denied it. They also tried on their side but cannot find.

Wtf??? if i can find it, but tmnut staff cannot, is the staff incompetent or on purpose?

Should i call again or go to tmpoint myself to check ??? hmm.gif

I'm just pissed off that i could find my availability but they couldn't. I even have the green box outside my house for a few months already -.-;

If neither of us could find it i would have left it at that. But i found it, they didn't, and no further explanation why that is ;_;

tmnut just pisses me off all the time vmad.gif

Okay, what counts to the cap? P2P? Downloads? Streaming? Surfing?
*
Any downloads whether local or international will count.

IPTV does not count (correct me if i am wrong). Apparently if for example you subscribe for 10mb broadband, they give you an extra 8mb solely for iptv.

uploads do not count toward your quota either. So technically, if your just hosting stuff and people downloading from you, your upload is unlimited ( correct me if i am wrong)

hmm.gif


Anyway downloads....

1. web surfing
2. games
3. occasional linux distro download...*cough
4. background internet traffic ( your pc applications use some internet traffic, although very little )
5. windows updates
6. game or other software updates
7. utube streaming
8. torrenting ( only when you download. Seeding is upload so won't count toward quota *correct me if i am wrong )
