Whats the point of not telling the customers their PPPoE user and pass? You're paying for the damn account and it's so bloody easy to intercept a PPPoE connection and grab the user + pass. Then their helpline will just act dumb and pretend they suddenly cant give you your own user/pass combination.

They're just making people suffer for an already overpriced service.

in the end, i think the best solution is to get your own hardware and let tm do whatever they want with the 615 for those that are willing to use it.

in order to use our own hardware we need our pppoe username/password.

rizvanrp, how easy/difficult is it to capture our pppoe username/password when the 615 is trying to connect?
is it possible to do?

I guess so. So people will have to buy a high end router + smart switch if they keep locking it up like this.

It's pretty easy to capture the user/pass. Either do a man in the middle capture by using a hub or set up a fake PPPoE server and let it connect to it to capture the user/pass.

so i guess its a matter of connecting the wan port of the 615 to a pc lan port and run a program, yea?
is there such a program? can you write one, if not? icon_rolleyes.gif

I am staying in Bandar Utama Phase 12 BU12.
This area has no Streamyx, as the fixed lines are laid by Maxis.
What I have been using is the Maxis 1Mbps wired internet, which is too slow in this day & age...

In the last 2 days, I saw a bunch of men laying cables on the roadside. Upon close inspection of the sign, it said 'TM - Kerja Pembinaan Projek Jalur Lebar Berkelaluan Tinggi'

Does it mean that TM HSBB is coming to BU12?
Anyone here care to comment or verify this?

Usually, after laying the cables, how soon can Unifi service be available?
Did TM & Maxis signed some deal? TM Unifi is coming to an area traditionally occupied by Maxis fixed lines... it this a sign of things to come in the future?

if you saw the contractors laying the cables then its highly likely that your area will have unifi when they hook it up to an exchange.

then you can cancel your current phone line/adsl bb that you have with maxis...and use the voip/unifi from tm...

guess maxis investment in laying copper for your area will not yield anymore returns if everyone switches to unifi

20 mb consumer broadband package should at least be 600gb + monthly minimum. Daily caps will not be tolerated 
600GB LOL...might as well they dont have any cap...

The day we have no contract for tmnut, is they day when we have actual competition >->;

I'm surprised you bother asking that.

that is not true.

when there is competition. and if the service being rendered is similar betw competitors the players will need to define more innovative ways to bolster customer loyalty.

eg. mobile telco companies. all of them provide call services, text msging, voice banks, internet connectivity etc etc

there is very little to distinguish the services betw competitors. so how do they prevent their customers from leaving or how to they keep and get more customers?

obviously, there are other factors such as branding, tech support and most importantly price but fighting with price alone is detrimental to the whole industry and there is a threshold where they cant lower prices anymore or they will make a loss.

so they decide to subsidize the cost of mobile phones (sell them cheaper or give away) when you subscribe to their services as a means to lock you in as a customer for x period.




so with isps, they may subsidize pcs/notebooks or hardware needed to get connected to the internet.

i asked about their fup policy regarding bandwidth quotas, and expected throttle speeds, and to reconfirm whether only international and not local speed, as well as download and not upload is counted toward the bandwidth quota.

They did not reply. They have FUP but they are not upfront about it.
I know it's not yet enforced, but is it so much to ask for this info so we know whether to get the service or upgrade shakehead.gif

when they throttle your connection once the cap is reached, BOTH upload and download throttled?
