have you ever seen a country where they reduce the numbers of vehicles on the road? people will only keep buying and going faster because its evolution, technology and income.  other countries have actually stop capping speed; they still throttle p2p and such but the lines keep getting faster and better.

omg.. that is so many countries doing this..

Go around KL look at the left side, you will sign boards, some road are offlimit to heavy vehicle. because this big vehicle is slow and hog the roads thus causing traffic jam.

They increase parking and petrols to reduce ppl buying cars..

Take for example singapore, certain roads are offlimit to those who doesnt have permit to enter.

Car tax increase.. all this are methods to reduce ppl buying more cars.

Common sense, build road how much u need? millions.. but impose all this.. how much u need?

Because technology, everyone also can afford internet and they need it.. just like car, graduates now 1st job already can afford buy cars.. we need control this.. no?

Here's my opinion. I think speedtest.net isn't accurate in terms of international testing. Because the site that we test is a different ISP center not the data center. I mean for example google, mediafire, faebook, etc aren't really specifically hosted in the US they have many data center in different location. What i'm trying to say is doesn't mean you ping a site from Speedtest for example US meaning every site hosted in the US is gonna be slow. I think Speedtest center is just and average speedtest for location nearby to test your current speed. Just a thought though not really confirmed a theory. on a side note  recently 218 ip has been assigned on 4mbps account.

ya i mention earlier.. it might be due to the exchange point got problem.

For example,

House --> TM Gateway ---> china ---> Europe

if china station got problem it will slow down..

Thats why we cannot judge whether its TM cap or its exchange problem.

Affordability is one

but use as you pay is another whole issue after all.. dont get me wrong.

i was suggest you use wat u paid for.. if u wanna hog the line pay more. Thats why Tmnet is so stupid to give unlimited package. Its like open the floodgate to get flooded.

I signed streamyx during 384kbps and its was given free during initial promotion. That time not everyone has a computer at home.

If compare now.. one house atleast 2 computers 2 mobile phone. My house has 3 computers, 6 smartphones and its only 1mbps (no unifi/4mb/2mb for my housing)

imagine..

aiya, you guys arguing about whether to limit data transfer or to increase bandwidth, when in fact both can be done.

what TM should have done: increase network capacity, and then limit data transfer. we all know it's about time the network capacity be increased what with unifi and all that shit. following the logic that they want to make as much money as possible, then they can cap the data trasnfer at 200GB and upwards, depending on data package. this is what some ISPs in the US are already doing.

win-win for all no? (except us consumers of course)
*
ofcourse but increase capacity it not as easy as 123. You need alot of work.. involve alot of JKR stuff and all.

if both can be ofcourse = VOILA~ but in fact corporate strategy = no way.. we need money for this.. how to generate money?cap the unlimited and get hoggers to contribute..

icon_question.gif Unifi 1mbps? Dont have such package la.. You mean 5 mbps rite??

Anyway unifi uses fiber optic instead of sharing the phone line copper wire.. So it should give you a lower ping in online gaming... Should la tongue.gif But we know that tmnut always fakap something..
*
he said b4 unifi, he was using 1mbps..

its due to your port was far from the exchange.

Same sense, if u take iphone install speedtest.net u run a test infront of your wireless router.. it will be lesser ping.. if far = high ping

my port was station in kelana Jaya near the FAM football field.. according to TM and i am staying in Seapark. for those who dont know its around 5~10km away

You can compare really,

Those are monopoly thru power or their competitiveness.. that they ARE REAL GOOD in their industry.

But TM was granted monopoly by u know who and how. They are not best but just give the opportunity to monopolize.

Do they really earn money or not.. i dunno.. They can earn alot of money but expenses is high, like MAS case, BIG tummy CEO, Directors and Managers?. Its not a common practise that i earn 10 bucks i need throw 10bucks into the company u know...

Well normally so new BB providers they have a customer trial period of 7days. If your not satisfy you can cancel and get your deposit fees back.

As for TMnet i m not too sure. Well its no alternative for wired BB. Not good we have to use, good we have to use.. Unless your fine with wireless BB.

Just wait patiently and keep calling to check your report, make them answer to your problem. Make some scenes and shout at them.
Request for to speak to manager or supervisor..

Just received a call from TM, regarding the "slow" connection to international.

As usual, "we having upgrades @ blah blah, it might be the cause of this", "lets just monitor the connection for today, if problem still persist please call us back and we will highlight this to the technical department"

Just got bullshited by tm again~ hiah

I just called up 1-300-88-9515 to complain about the slow speed. The CS said that although he couldn't see from his end my exact speed when I was testing on speedtest.net he could see that my line condition was 'very beautiful'. ahhh what can I say!

Sometimes in our frustration and agitation we completely forget that it is really not the fault of these CS for our abysmal speeds and so we take it out on these poor sods who are just doing their jobs. The actual fault lies with those higher up in the TM hierarchy who sets the policies and makes the decisions. The CEO's and whatnots.

And so I told the CS that it may be a problem with my router and I thanked him for his troubles. The 'troubleshooting' session lasted more the 20 minutes and I wondered how many times in a day these poor buggers gets abused by customers calling in.

So spare a thought for these poor CS blokes. They aren't responsible for your problems. They are just there to try and help out as well as earning a living.  nod.gif

Totally, understand.

Sorry too bad if your working as customer service support. If you cant take complaints and tough customers then do something else.

I always tell the CS, i do not want to talk to you, i know your outsourced and even so u do not have the power/expertise to help me. However, they always say to me, i canot pass u to another department. How about techinicians name and number? sorry we cant disclosure. How about your manager or supervisor? Sorry they are not working (daytime and weekdays not working? you kidding me?)

I am working in the service industry as well, sometimes you cant avoid customer calling shouting over you for tiny matters. But my report is 3 months old and i have 4 running report number. Even the Cs that answer my call will take 30mins to read the reports. You tell me your frust or not?

like i said before, the capping starts 5~10seconds after u've initiated the download. Why? because they need to determine if this connection u've made is a browsing connection or "download" connection. If it detects it is in fact a download (of a large file), then it starts capping...

If u browse content-heavy site, u will experience slowdown too coz streamyx thinks u r "downloading". but for facebook etc, i have no problem.
*
The way to mentioned can be also a way of detecting..

There were once they cap by filename for eg, rmvb etc etc.. but it didnt succeed.

hmmm i guess they install a new cap software after they failed to cap by filename.
