Wireless have too much drawbacks, plus one base station only can support up to certain of users at the same time "FOR THE WHOLE AREA". Lol, Wireless broadband definitely won't be replace wired broadband or for Home used. Wireless tend to support outdoor used, light surf. But not for heavy downloaders.
I don't trust either, especially those claims or testimonials. ClearWire the most popular WiMax provider in US, also having too much complains and frustrated customers on their its slow connection and inconsistent speed. So, WiMax just another failure wireless technology, it still unable to cope with real time performance. Campaign and launch, speed will be the most fake one. Some people do believed it, they are easily conned by it. Naive Comes to real time performance, it could be a ugly page. This post has been edited by Acrisius: Nov 4 2010, 12:56 PM |

All these P1 and YTL Wimax players keep selling their services as 4G. It's NOT 4G. 4G isn't even fully implemented in Japan yet. Let alone the rest of the world. They're Wimax. They should just stick to the term Wimax. 3G and 4G run on cellular networks, such as Digi and Maxis. Wimax is essentially a Wifi on steroids. They do not run off cellular networks but run instead on a special type of wifi that extends a few kilometers. |

if they plan to have around 2000++ base to cover the peninsular malaysia do you think it's sufficient.. or not? and they base on north-south highway. meaning you can access internet during travel. currently they have 65% base up. even in korea who implement wimax 4g earlier than us doesn't reach the speed as stated in ITU. there's pros and cons for wireless.. wireless is to enable mobility...

QUOTE(dannychen @ Nov 4 2010, 06:57 PM) The site did not say a crap. just stupid marketing words. (well... at least until 19th nov 2010)if they expect ppl to surf normal web = FAIL people will use their device to exploit whatever resources is available = TRUE so unless their 24/7 usage's value beats many of it's competitors it is not really attractive. |

you guys are comparing the existing lousy P1 with the new players from YTLE. If you know this company well, they will not roll out something which they do not have the confidence in. YTL is already proven to be the brand that you can trust as all the projects they bring out will be a quality one, unlike some company that give empty promises without caring their company goodwill. They will get my subscription for sure due to it's own branding, unlike TM or Unifi which is doomed to fail in the future as you're getting half of what you're paying.

QUOTE(dannychen @ Nov 5 2010, 12:06 AM) well the important part is still this CODE "Apart from giving you the lowest rates, we also charge only for what you use. After all, paying for what you don't use just doesn't make sense. While conventional mobile plans tend to come with too little of what you need, and too much of what you don't need, Yes helps you save by charging only for what you use – just like electricity." so 10gb 50 bux ?, no rate at all if its absurd then the service can close down even before its launch... so since they are following pay as you use formula.. I"M VERY SURE THERE WILL BE NO THROTTLING OR TRANSPARENT PROXY ? implemented since we are paying for what we use.... QUOTE(oumind @ Nov 5 2010, 08:53 AM) Mr.Lee ? siapa tu ? |

Average real time speed by Yes is around 11mbps as shown at their Twitter site.
Still betten than nothing. Crap TMnut can't even deliver 512kbps on a 4mbps ADSL line during at night. |

That wasn't their average speed, in order to get an average you must perform more than 1 test. They did ONE test to a LOCAL server.
And even if 11Mbps was their average speed... that is with ZERO subscribers on the network. Think before you speak. |

From what I've heard, no throttling... but then again, the rates I have heard are in no way cheap or even competitive to other pay-as-you-go solutions (think along the lines of buying a HotLink SIM just to surf data with no promotions). All hearsay, but from reliable sources. |
