Singapore 2Mbps is only 20dollars... sing dollars... with their income... 20dollar is just piece of their hair only....

here ?? no point spent millions on infra if nobody subscribe... HSBB is a fixed line.. means non mobile, so more than 60 % of subscriber for sure use that for downloading or streaming... if u limit like tat.. no point...

wait till WiMax from YTL came out...then we shall see..

We should toss him off a cliff *figuratively speaking off course


Wimax technology is a fail :/ the only way to go is FTTH which sadly is monopolied by tmnut :/

You still have to choose from either of their 3 packages.... there is no option saying `Tak Nak`

i'm enjoying my 1st laugh, as i read thru the older threads

i was being 'ejek' by peeps of being too skeptical to a point that every post sound like whining and they said, 2 days ago...

look, PM is there to do opening ceremony, must be grand!!!
look, it's 5mbps!!!
look, news said they were looking into pricing!!!

now who's whining after the 'grand finale' revealed to be too lame to believe...

look, blaady cap!!!
look, blaady expensive!!!
look, current line is still blaady congested as hell!!!


some forumers are either too young, too naive or just plain stupid (i forgive those who are retarded, mentally challenged people needs love and care...) to believe that GLC will finally be doing something good to the public other than tneir wallet.

this time i'm laughing for the price and caps.

*laughing menacingly*

more laughs to come...

HURRY!!! SUBSCRIBE!!!

Lenient? what are you on

ISP has no jurisdiction in enforcing intellectual property laws. How do you want an ISP to "catch downloaders"
PLUS cannot catch criminal using their highway either, just saying

And you are buying into their fair use BS. You pay for a recurring service, an access to a network. How can one claim that other downloaders are using your money? You have your service, others have their service, its easy as that. No one is stealing your line or your bandwidth because you are subscribing to an access, not a particular amount of bandwidth.

I know :/ it gives a false impression people are agreeing all the packages are fair and agreeable which they aren't.

web surfing/email/transaction + 8h++++ per day + 4 ppl use = VIP10....thats what they recommend me....what a ripoff

Extract from The Star :

TM, solve current problems first


I would like to congratulate TM for launching its new High Speed Broadband. Although the pricing has not been released yet, most domestic users are not bothered because I do not think many domestic consumers will be subscribing to it.

I wonder why TM embarked on this so-called High Speed Broadband project when even its present “low” speed is not maintained properly.

This month alone, I had a “port” problem thrice. I was unable to read my Streamyx webmail from overseas.

Calls to its service centre were met with, “Sir, it’s normal for our webmail to be like that.”

As consumers, I do not believe we should accept this kind of answer.

Although the customer service people are polite, they are of little help as solving

connection problems takes up to 24 hours.

In this time of high speed broadband, 24 hours seems like a millennium.

To TM, I suggest you look into the present problems of Internet access by going through all the reports and complaints to your customer service department.

Solve our daily problems first before further expanding your High Speed Broad­band.

Shah Alam.

End of the day, ANTI Monopoly & SUPPORT Perfect Competition!!

Sadly some of us were hoping for a change. When the rumors became official, we gave up and it's back to complaining again



Actually there was some sort of maxis ftth beta testing going on, anybody know anything about it?

Not to say that they have their own demons in the closet such as very low bandwidth caps as well for their prior packages :/

Lol, I'm sorry what? Check the HSBB thread, I was like the first guy on LYN to subscribe for the retail VIP20 package yesterday.

Did you even read my response properly? I stated a factual error in the article Star intech posted and I get this kind of shit response. FYI, you CAN download stuff in Singapore you just have to use a VPN.

People are angry for a lot of reasons. I might scrape the 120GB cap a month but my download habits aren't limited to 4GB per day (assuming its a 30 day cycle on the daily cap). Giving people HSBB access then passing them a cap which is lower than Streamyx's worst package is like making you buy a Ferrari with a fuel tank the size of a Coke can.

I'm going to get the package and test it out, maybe post a review here.. but until then I'm not going to join the crowd of people that hate it or love it but who have not even tried it out.

TM also DOES catch downloaders. Just not on Streamyx HOME packages because there's probably 300,000 idiots getting DMCA letters everyday.

how much u willing to pay?

below 150

opinion of the day!!!

Can you teach how to use vpn for this :/ will that by pass the cap ???

From my understanding if you get vpn it must be able to support 20 mb download isn't that right?


Hm.... i never got a DMCA

vpn cannot bypass cap....unless they only cap international bandwidth...then u can get local vpn to bypass that....

bro.. no need to say can download or cannot download...legal or illegal...

okie..now i dun wan download...can i stream a lots of youtube one day?? youtube is legal rite?? if i use pps whole day??

don't look at the downloading only..

well... firstly when TM came out with 1Mbps ... celebration is everywhere too.. of course when the number of subscriber is low.. and the service is still new.. u will get high speed..

The bad news will be Internet Censorship.

I will have to see after I get the thing on 30th March. From what their sales rep told me, capping is not implemented yet. I assume they're putting these values in the advertisements to ward off heavy downloaders. Then if you use too much after June 30th (freebie period ends), they will place the cap on you and you can't say anything because you agreed to it (unlike with Streamyx WE ARE TEH UNLIMITED users).

If local traffic isn't throttled, you will be able to bypass the cap by using a local server and SSH tunnel/VPN. I'm hoping this is the case but I will really have to check and see what protocols they are using and how they separate internet and IPTV traffic.

And yes, a cheap US based VPS can be turned into a OpenVPN node and you WILL be able to utilize the full 20mbps of the line regardless of what they do until you hit your cap.

I never mentioned legal or illegal downloads, I just stated a factual error in the Star article to get some stupid reply about downloading in Singapore. I never mentioned a comparison with Singapore either, the STAR did.
