i can't believe there are people actually sanctioning bandwidth caps! way to target the wrong cause, please target your grievances at the provider, not the user!!! the only reason we are stuck in this pitiful position is because of the heavy monopoly. the only countries that have stupid bandwidth caps all have stupid telecom monopolies, ie cananda, australia... all only a few players that are continuously fleecing the customers giving all kinds of bullshit excuses. seriously they are just pinching every bit of profit they can out of you and completely missing the big picture that massive broadband coverage can provide.
i suppose idiots deserve what they believe. |

QUOTE(coolitenterprise @ Mar 24 2010, 11:46 PM) you all try to look this link .... its really difficult to compete with island nations... they can achieve coverage easily since the area is small and population is dense. cheaper to cover, more profit cuz more users.Singapore Broadband RAtes ..... http://www.starhub.com/broadband/homebroadband.html 100mbps only not more that RM 200 |

QUOTE(mylinear @ Mar 25 2010, 02:04 AM) This is just an opinion, which may not be popular with most.... problem with that, 90% of users are most certainly going to go for the cheapest block, rm30. why would they allow that when they can fleece the users of 5Mb for rm160. regardless how much data they use.Maybe they should just sell additional data usage packages instead of capping speeds. 1. Package should be at a low price entry point, eg RM90 with say 60GB limit. This will help increase broadband usage due to the lower pricing. This should be enough for most light to medium users. 2. If you want more data usage, you pay additional for it, say RM30 per 50GB block. So if you want to use say 200GB a month, you would pay a total of RM180 or so. This should be enough for a heavier user. Even heavier user will have to pay even more. This will help with fair usage while not affecting connection speeds. It may help with network performance and improve quality of service for all users. There may be no need for throttling connections if the network is not congested. The above is just examples. The point is pay per data usage method. As I've said before, if they decide to have data transfer limits, its going to be the heavy downloaders that are most affected. If Unifi has data transfer limits (either straight away or in the future), it is likely that Streamyx will also have them. There is already indication of this in what is said in the Streamyx users FAQ. all the excuse about massive data users is just BS... its just excuse to charge high prices and oversell their lines and blame someone. |
