but i have to mention one thing...when comparing between 2 items.u have to consider in a lot of factors..in many cases..u all are comparing an apple and an orange..and it is unfair..u cant compare US, Korea, Australia to Malaysia...becoz spending power,earning power,existing/available infrastructure or services,development plans, support, open market, government laws, country location and etc.
and to silverhawk..HSBB is a 80-20 investment..meaning that the 80% came from TM pockets where they got the money from selling services, plans and other things..TM was started with tax payers money but has since earned their own money like Petronas..and not like MAS..
i would agree that the Unifi had a low cap..but i would give them time...not 1 day or 2 days..since Rome was not built in 2 days...
and every ISP in this world has customers who hate their service..like singapore and Singtel..but most of the times it goes unreported to the media so to say that an ISP is good becoz the have been no official or public complaints is just wrong.just like how robbery or rape cases goes unreported does not mean that it is not there..
and relying on speedtest as a measure is just weird..

Weinstein concluded that the tests employed by the FCC, which actually use the same testing system as the Speedtest.net Web site, were only useful for helping "categorize users into very broad classes of Internet service tiers" and not much else. This is best illustrated, Weinstein wrote, by the fact that when he conducted the FCC's test on his own connection, the test "showed consistent disparities of 50% to 85%."
Brett Glass, the owner and founder of the Wyoming-based ISP Lariat Networks, also criticized the FCC's speed test for being far too simplistic and said that it couldn't account for some of the smart routing techniques employed on his network to optimize user experience.
"My network routes different types of traffic through different connections, which are optimized for that type of traffic," he says. "But the test doesn't 'know' this. It tries to access random, uncacheable data through our cache and thus gives results which are not typical of user experience… In short, the tests are 'dumb' tests designed for 'dumb' networks."
