Mine take less than 1 week, last Thursday submitted the form, then the same week of Sunday TM technician came and active the 4mbps, and another day I was able to get the 4mbps speed.

When you think about it.. 4 Megs actually gives you more downloads for your buck because its uncapped always..

Compared to 5 Meg 60 GB allowance.. it's pretty much an oxymoronic decision by TM to cap Unifi....

1TB+ compared to 60 GB monthly allowance?

The best choice is still 4 Megs Streamyx lol....

So I think that price difference/parity is justified...

Hmm.. currently I am using Streamyx Cool Unipack 2Mbps... for RM83 per month...

Actually, I really interested to upgrade to 4mbps one.. only add RM5 more... so it will be RM88 per month...

But, can I upgrade my streamyx from 2mbps to 4mbps....? Below is my modem technical reading....

@AjkR06

Oh yes. Most definitely. Do it.

it depends on the port availability, but if you are able to get 2mbps, usually it won't be an issue to get 4mbps, just my 2 cents
and the margin on your line was pretty good i would say

agreed. if you surf a lot everyday, especially sites with heavy graphics, or watch lots of youtube, those already use up many GB's per month, + some downloads, 60GB is really not much.

your port already is 4mb, just capped by the account. but then, you definately can ask for 5mb or higher speed

Holy shit, I juz upgraded from 1mbps to 4mbps today and the technician come pasang already, but oMG it feels like its even more bloody slow than before, this is what my router page tells me




okay, so from a scale of 1 to 10 how bad does this looks like?

attenuation looks bad...
call streamyx ask them reset port

if at 85 = 85/13.6=6.25 dslam distance, look like the modem stupid... try set gdmt mode

@Wolf516

Your line stats are good, people just got confused because of the scale used to measure your line stats...

Your attenuation for Downstream is actually 8.5 not 85... the scale used in the chart is 0.1 db lol.. so its 85 x 0.1 = 8.5db which is VERY GOOD!!!

Hell with your excellent DS and US SNR, 22.4 and 15.5 respectively, your 4 Meg connection should fly after 24 hours of the technician inspecting your line...

They WOULD not provision you with a 4 Meg service if your DS attenuation is more than 30 db lol.....

Your current speedtest is just indicative of the fact that you have just been port capped at 4 Meg, but your account cap is still at 1 Meg, which gives the 1.56 Meg result using speedtest..

Take it easy bro.. its all good to me...

not 30db, r 40db, the technicial told me but my friend near 50db also can activate

The SNR margin needs to be higher. 15.4 Is only at the border.

@Zepx

If DS SNR was less than 20db, then yes, it is a cause for alarm... but in the technician's sheet for provisioning, they only look at the DS SNR and not the US SNR, so the US SNR can be much lower than the DS SNR and they can still provision the 4 Meg service...

TL:DR; DS SNR>20 = sufficient for 4 Mbps service

yo bro, what you said hit the money for me, this morning when I wake up I relentlessly do speed tests and downloads to test my connection, when I see my new ip which is set at 218 (can't run away from this) I know something has change... and this is the result

What's the minumum torrent speed for 4mbps?



Currently subscribing to the 1mbps Blockbuster deal, planning to change to 4mbps one. Is it okay to upgrade?

@Wolf516

Glad to have put your fears to rest! Enjoy your new found speeds! XD

I know I have!!!! XD

@kos.zealous

Line stats look good, go for it...

Minimum torrent speed depends on the seeders in the swarm...

i think no problems , juz subscribe and see how ... if u talk about torrent without using VPN , u cant achieve high speed ... nobody knw how many speed u can achieve without using vpn ...
