Hi all,

I am currently using Streamyx RM88 (1M) package and all my lines plus value added services which I rarely utilized cost me around RM130 per month.
I am thinking to "start over" and cancel all value added services and migrate to the RM140 (4M) package.

Just read through a few pages here and knowing that not all users (or their line) are capable for 4Mbps?
So, here's what I get from my Linksys router:



Can you experts help me verify if I am capable for 4Mbps service?

Thank you in advanced...

Hi cheekeez,

Please allow me to ask a few questions as I also interested in upgrading to 4MB package.

If the "port" was not 4096, can they just change or upgrade the port to support 4MB?
My router stated 1536, and I heard line attenuation to high will make 4MB package impossible.
My current Downstream Line Attenuation is 54 db, and my DSL Modulation Mode is G.dmt but not ADLS2+, by the way.

How and where did you request to cap your speed at 5120?

Thanks!

Hi nyunyu, thanks for the information...
Look like I need to take a day off and make an appointment with the TM tech guy then let him come to my house to test the line?
I would be much easier if they can test my line from the riser as I'm staying in a condo and nobody at home during office hours...

I called 100 not long ago and they cannot give me the answer, I have to go to TM Point to request for a test if my line is supported.

Thank you again nyunyu~

Hi all,

I walked into TM Point this morning to request for upgrading to 4Mbps package (currently using 1Mbps).
The TM guy told me technician will contact me to test my line within 5 days
Surprisingly, came home from work tonight and I immediately noticed they changed my port.
Then 8:08pm, I received the SMS from technician to confirm will come visit me tomorrow morning at 9:45am.
At least I am surprised by their quick respond, kudos to TM for this time...

So the if the Before and After reading for my line:



With the above numbers (which are confusing to me), can anyone tell me if my line get high chance to pass the test and eligible for 4Mbps?

Before this, I always getting IP starts from 115, but now I get 175 all the time.
The problem is, I find the respond time of my connection becoming very slow.
Maybe I should say, the PING time is longer...
I am wondering if upgrading to 4Mbps will make myself "dive" into this slow respond connection all the time?

Please help...

Hi SnowFLak3s, please don't mind I intercept this...

My installer did everything for me yesterday morning and he told me I should get my 4Mbps speed within 24 hours.
But until now, it is still 1.xMbps, so I just SMS my installer moments ago.

Be confident!
If you read my earlier post, you should see my line was as bad as yours...
But after request for 4Mbps upgrade, they changed my port or something, and my installer told me my line is very good.
So, don't worry too much (or too early)!

While doing speed test, I can get a short burst of around 3.8Mbps download speed, then it gradually slows down as shown on the following screen capture:

Click below:


Does that mean I got the so called 4Mbps already?

Here's my final result:



My installer said 24 hours to get the right speed, some forumers here said 48 hours, anyway, I will give them 48 hours before calling 100.


EDIT: Got the promised speed this morning...

Hi unicode, you are right, I just tried TM Speedometer and it is slower than SpeedTest.net
What do you mean about speed slowing down issue?
Do you mean it will slowing down per file / per download or you mean the speed will be slowing down day by day?


So sorry to heard that, SnowFLak3s, I think what you can do now is to keep calling 100 to bother them.

OIC, thanks! I understand what you mean now.


If it is real, then 1.2TB is definitely enough for me.
I'm occasionally a little BitTorrent, but not much...

Opps! Haha... thanks for your explain and sorry for my careless reading....


If they are "not going to be monthly quota based", I really don't know how TM will judge one as a heavy user?
Maybe based on speed? Like, average speed per month?

I read from TM BB Deal homepage stated: Upon Broadband activation, customer has to bring along Multimedia Confirmation Slip for the collection of their Cordless Phone at any TMpoint.
Can anyone tell me where can I get the "Multimedia Confirmation Slip"?
My installer only left the Work Order and Service Acceptance Form for me.
I want to collect my Cordless Phone...
