eh i got confused a bit with Lucas's case..so do we still have the access to our router, and config stuffs like port forwarding or QoS and stuff...


Added on June 14, 2010, 12:05 pmneed to make up my mind soon...cos maybe this week imma terminate screamyx and get unifi...

stupid sh*t throttled my speed for so many weeks already, and till now also still no change..

for downloaders(i think i would be downloading ~100GB per month with 10M), izit advisable to change? and Gaming also, games like Team Fortress 2, L4D2, is the latency good?

also, i heard from previous IPTV beta tester(my friend is one) that his game will spike when the IPTV switches channel...does anyone face that with the actual IPTV now?

Maybe my case was isolated problem. Make sure during installation, they show you how to access the router. If they refused to do so (even after installation), you can refuse to sign the confirm installation form.

but but but do we have other choices ? no.. so no matter what we still will have to subscribe to unifi if we want higher speed...

This is called "voting with your wallet".

If you pay someone for a shitty service, because "you don't have a choice", why would they change? They have absolutely no incentive to do so. Put aside your "desire" for a while, that will force them to give you what you really "need" in a service.

It works for me too.

I think you have to check with your firewall or try it with a proxy server.

Malaysian consumers are just too weak ...... if we were strong (excessively) we would be just like Thailand, and you know what happened to them hmm.gif

But then again there are just too many injustices in Malaysia. We will have to use a soft approach and change through our votes. Vote PKR and hope for change laugh.gif


As for choice, my place now also is supported by metrofon, but they are only offering 2mb fiber .... that is vs tmnuts 20mb unifi. So as much as i hate unifi cap policy + pricing, the competition isn't offering anything much better either, so what choice is there hmm.gif

I think we are entitled to get full access of the router. They cant jst lock us out like that.

BTW, went to TM point to terminate my HomeLine + screamX. They wont allow me to terminate it until 30 June 2010............

I asked why, they say need to wait until UniFi billing date starts, which is 1st July 2010.

Then i ask, i wanna terminate homeline+screamx, whats the relation with UniFi? They could not answer me.

Which means, if i have Homeline + Screamx, but dont hv UniFi, i can terminate anytime, but once i subscribed to Unifi, i could only terminate it on 30 June 2010....

Make report to cfm hmm.gif

Good info since i also need to terminate my 1mb and upgrade my 4mb to 20mb unifi.

All they told me was i can do that after i got Unifi. But now you provide this info, i better double check again with them.

Those sneaky bastards probably intentionally forget to mention this vmad.gif

Fully agreed. TM is just trying to take us for a ride. Look at what they are doing to us... We don't even have full access to our router and they even loaded a SSH Deamon in our router (according to rizvanrp). This is an invasion of privacy. How could they plan a back door in the hardware without the user's consent and even tried to hide it until rizvanrp discovered it. I am sure this would have brought about a big legal case and class action in other country, but what to do, we live in Malaysia.

For your info, if you have been using your Streamyx account for over 24 Months (Contract Period), you should be able to terminate it anytime, at least that's what i did. I got my Unifi on early June and terminated my Streamyx 2 days after. The reason they do not let you terminate might be that your 24 Months contract with Streamyx is still in force and Unifi will not start charging till July 10, that's why they don't allow you to terminate. But if you are sure you have already passed the Streamyx contract period, i would advice you to call TM again (Dial 100 on TM Landline), if they still refuse to terminate your streamyx, you better contact CfM or MCMC ASAP.

ps : Since TM No longer let user access the router, and the DIR-615 given is using a custom FW, what if something happen to the DIR-615 after 1 year warranty period ? Can we copy and load the FW from TM's DIR-615 and restore it to a DIR-615 we buy at computer shop ? Even if we are allowed to do that, what happen when DIR-615 is no longer on the market after 2 years or so ? What will happen then ?

Yes, my streamyx is way beyond the 24 months, i have this sCreamyx account when it was RM88 for 512Kb line and later on they upgraded it to 1Mb line@RM88 (that was quite a few years ago i guess, definitely more than 24 months). In other words, my Screamx or homeline is not bound under any contract.

same question i was about to post jst now, what happens after the 1 year warranty period expired for the Dir 615? We should be allowed access to Cheap alternatives of the Dir 615. Maybe TM will charge us expensively for a replacement of the DIR - 615 (after the one year warranty), and make some money from us.
