Damn true tongue.gif

anyway, back to topic, according to twitter of TMCorp, the CAP thingy has been LIFTED OUT!
Now u can enjoy UNLIMITED download!!

"Internet 5MB+IPTV+free call to fixed line" is really a good deal for RM149. (for me laa..) smile.gif

yea your right, but as what has been said in tmcorp twitter the new fair usage policy will be implemented in 2011.

correct me if im wrong.

Yeah, but as u can see, they can change the policy based on DEMAND! So rite now since many people request to lifted out the CAP, they already lifted it out, though its for short period.

nak bising2 buat apa...buat malu ja.....kalau xmampu xpayah laa subcribe...

bukan nya TM paksa ambil pun..

Yeah, and actually those who mocking at here are not even in the Unifi area yet. tongue.gif

Anyway, they have their right to voice out their opinion coz in the future, they also will experience Unify in their area biggrin.gif

But for the price, I think its good, where to get "Internet+IPTV+free call to Fixed line" at RM149??

Now the streamyx+Astro pon already exceed the above price.

sure la that wan. until end of this year is like TRIAL
right now only a few res areas covered bangsar, subang, TTDI, etc

rest all planned to be Q3/Q4 this year wink.gif

so?

right now, not many people, their network is ok. Q3/Q4 when more people subscribe as more areas are covered.
of COURSE TM will exercise FUP so that UNIFI can take on ALL THESE NEW CUSTOMERS without UPGRADING ANYTHING biggrin.gif

U're wrong. For the new area, the implementation of cabling is on process, which means its totally new backbone, seperated from the existing one (sorry can't provide source, read somewhere in newspaper before, but forgot which newspaper)

You guys are expecting for 1TB of cap. Common even some website packages do offer  20GB of bandwidth quota. But then if you're a heavy downloader you're screwed. For me and to be honest , I rather have the cap which is rather reasonable , umm say 75GB for 5Mbps

I dont want to suffer with slow connection just like streamyx because of certain group of self-centered folks who think that they are the only ones that are paying taxes and downloading things 24/7 !

+1

Besides many developed country like Aus/UK/US already implementing the Cap policy to ensure the Internet service that they provide is at maximum level.

Good without all that, why should I need a 5mbps line?
*
Hurm. For normal usage like surfing perhaps? LOL

Anyway, they said the capping is for browsing/loading data from international, but for local data, they didn't cap. I'm not sure bout this though.

The main advantage for 5mbs line is not only the download speed is huge, but the upload speed is huge too!! FYI, the Unifi package didn't capped for upload activity, u can upload as much as u want. Its good for a personal/business who need to deal with international people, where they can upload the data needed as big as they want at a high speed. nod.gif

Unlimited download without control leads to bandwidth congestion which makes ur connection gettin slower. it also can effect the backbone connection (fiber optic in this case) in a long term.

To see on the brighter side, the capping is actually for ur own goods too. Did u want to suffer with slow connection because on certain month u'd download a data for like 60GB whereas ur neighbor aggressively download a data for like 1TB??? U see, because of ur neighbor fault (aggressively download), u also will suffer with the slowdown connection. And later on, u come to this thread, shouting that "my internet so slow" whilst its ur neighbor fault in the first place.

So the capping policy is to ensure that everyone will get based on what they pay, fair and square.

I'm saying this because actually capping is a good thing. The downside is the capping quota isn't enough. Hopefully they gonna increase the quota once the capping policy starting to be implemented again. icon_rolleyes.gif


p/s: I bet that those who dwld for like 1TB for a month can't even finish the whole movies/games that they'd dwlded (thats like 1497 of movies, assuming 1 movie = 700MB) rclxub.gif . Or if u're, I can just give an advice, please get off from ur laptop/PC and get a real life. real life >> digital life. Seriously. tongue.gif

This answer are unbelievable. shocking.gif

Who ever teach or even said if you use more bandwidth will impact the fiber optics lifespan. shakehead.gif

First of all, HSBB were meant fast internet and high speed broadband, with single fiber optics, you can get inbound and outbound for 1TB/sec (Tested by Japan), just imagine your hardisc 1sec full just like 'sekelip mata'.

If you referring download and upload to international cap should apply while localize should no cap at all because fiber optics is 1000000xtimes faster than copper that will never slowdown local user connect local server. I believe this have been done in some country like Singapore, Korea, and Japan.

No body teach me, I think it logically. It still apply a same methodology, if u abusively using one device like for eg. u listen to ur ipod 24/7, i can confirm the lifespan of the ipod is shorter than those who listen to his ipod for like 12 hours a day. (I know later on u gonna say I should compare Apple-to-Apple, but since I can't find any, do venture it for me then). Correct me if i'm wrong, i'm still in learning process with a few little knowledge. smile.gif

For the "1TB/sec (Tested by Japan)" things, did u know that there're many different types of fiber optic? we have single-mode, multi-mode, and different core size. Each type have different capability to carry/load the data . I'm sure Japan technology >> than Malaysia. Everybody knows. And the distance between the exchange to ur house effect the download speed too.

And for the capped, they said the download quota is the data from international, and not for local. Means they implied the capped for data that download from outside malaysia. I don't know how far the truth is though. But if I'm not mistaken, TM's CEO did mention something regarding Malaysian pattern on surfing to international data.

Whatever it is, i'm still not satisfied with the download quota! They should increase it!! A survey to internet-users can come up with a win-win situation between users and providers. biggrin.gif
