exactly...if PM has to talk about the price of 384Kb plan @ 38 or 20 as good news (im not sure if it can be called broadband, min speed for bb is 512k?) during the LAUNCH of HSBB/UNIFI

then be prepared for not so good news??

err.. correct me if my understanding is wrong...

If I subscribe to the 20 mbps package (RM 240, 120gb capped),

120 GB capped per month = average 4 GB per day

At 20 mbps, that's 2.5 MB/s or 9 GB per hour.

Eh... if I'm a daily user and spend a few hours a day downloading/streaming stuff and surfing, I will bust my cap too easily... *sob*
*
if they price their plans like this...it is so that they can oversell their capacity...$$$
they hope most people will subscribe to the cheapest package...and those that want fast...to dload also will kena throttle once they reach the cap...WIN/WIN for TM wink.gif

dont care about the price, from scamboy's twit, seems like there is no mention of cap, but if there is cap... rm249.. forget it. however, if no cap... 20Mb, woo hoo.
*
TM might be "tricky"...first they will keep quiet about capping wink.gif

...i'm saying something realistic and u're just want something premium at low price coz u're just being selfish.
only people who can't afford something good will give so much reason to make them looked right...
*
is hsbb supposed to be a premium commodity?
i thought from PMs speech last night that in order for MSIA to progress into a 21st century nation, HSBB must become as common as expecting reliable electricity provision, clean water etc etc...

i did not know that HSBB was supposed to be a premium service for the those who can afford it...

i must be mistaken, yea...

It seems for SME, the package is better, but I doubt residential can apply for it. RM 200 for 5MBps package and with no limit.

Also, for all unify package, do noted that the maximum download allowed will be spread evenly for every day in the month. So fo 60GB, means you can only use 2GB per day. However, no mentioning what happen after that.

betul ke ni, 2GB a day?
then how to download new DVD ISO for say linux distro as an eg... biggrin.gif

Download Quota for each package is 60 GB, 90 GB and 120 GB respectively...
*
not only that but its spread out over the month so 120GB for 20Mb = 120GB / 30 Days = 4GB per day...LOL on a 20Mb line

Hi All,

I just called HSBB Hotline to double confirm.

All the download for bandwidth cap, is included for local, if you using download from local ip more than 60gb, you consider reach the limit.
*
so for 20Mb line with 120Gb quota, local + international DOWNLOADS are counted...uploads not counted?

sad sad day, local bandwidth is practically free for tm and yet its included into the quota...

wow, that is ridiculous

I would understand capping international connections, but LOCAL ones too? You sure the person you talked to knows anything?

yes it is terribly disappointing...imagine, watching yesterdays live stream of the unifi launch being counted towards your quota, who is going to watch?

80% who can afford to subscribe to unifi already have astro...but they bundle the iptv anyways for residential forcing us to get it thus increasing the price...


and yea they can say its free with the package etc but the price already incl the iptv component...nothing is free wink.gif

guys, finally managed to talk to UniFi ppl..
here's the answers so far that i gotten:

if u hit daily bandwidth cap, ur speed will be capped to 1M

if u hit the bandwidth cap and still want to continue using full speed, u need to pay extra charges to get it, and the extra charges will be calculated based on the extra GB that u have used after the bandwidth limit

Upload is not included in the 60GB limit

for peak hour, it will be 90% speed, and non-peak will be 95%

as for now, u CANNOT get rid of that IPTV package

there might be some other stuff that i asked but forgotten..just ask here, maybe if i did ask and forgot to include here, i'll reply u too
overall, it does sucks, for now...i have made suggestion that cut off IPTV and give cheaper price, and also told her that out of the 100 ppl in this forum, 99 says bandwidth limit too little, and it would be a lot more better if they can increase the bandwidth limit
*
so confirmed its a daily cap (pro rated based on your package?)

so 60Gb monthly cap = ~ 2Gb per day, pls ask say

for eg, during RAYA/CNY i go outstation and dont use my internet for 10 days.
does that mean that when i return i have 20Gb still in my quota to use or is it considered gone since its calc on a daily basis wink.gif

Metro LAN is like a normal lan, just over large distances. For example, I'm in TTDI, and another person is in bangsar, if we're on a metrolan, we can transfer and connect to each other as if it were a normal local area network. We would get similar speeds as well.

I used to use metrofon which had that ability, and some of us hosted ftp servers and the like with loads of stuff to share, so we didn't really need to download from international. Someone would download, others grab from him. Much faster that way, and in a way we distributed downloads amongst the community, reducing the need to go "international".
*
yea but whats the point? whether you download the linux distro from someone locally or direct from a foreign server
its still counted towards your quota...

Which is why I said, if they didn't count the local traffic as part of your quota, then it would still be quite attractive. 60GB for international is plenty provided that there are plenty "local mirrors" to handle the data.

In the end tmnet wins, the local backbone we have is incredibly fast and unsaturated, the problem is that our international line is congested worse than federal highway during rush hour. So we can reduce the amount of traffic going OUT, and retain the traffic locally, which is part of the idea behind the national broadband plan in the first place.
*
yea that would alleviate our reliance on the intl line...but i guess its too troublesome for tm to differenciate local/intl bw so too bad for us...
