i just subscribed to streamyx 4mb package and i just want to know if the speed i read in Tmnet Speedometer is the justified one? When i test run the broadband speed using the DSL Speedtest website , i discover that the speed of downloading from other countries such as USA cities were only 2mb plus. Is this normal for such packages? When Streamyx said 4mb , i would expect anything to be at 3Mb or slightly higher but the overseas downloading is only 2mb plus.


I like to know or heard third party opinion whether as a customer of 4mb package, we were shortchanged or not meeting the standard? Are we able to get rebate if proven that the actual download speed is less than 3mb and we are paying something for 4mb.

Can some one explain to me what i should do and whether this wasnt the problem for other users. that's mean easily can get 3mb even if download from other cities.

I have a similar (but not the same) problem to yours. I was subscribed to streamyx 512/256 and was getting torrent downloads of up to 55 kB/s. Recently I upgraded to 1M via the special offer. Unfortunately my torrent downloads remain at 55 kB/s. When I checked using the speedtest.tm.net.my, my dl/ul speed is 1300/420. Using international test sites results in similar (albeit 70-80%) of the speedtest site.

Does anyone has any solution to increase my torrent speed? BTW I'm using utorrent on Windows XP.

Thanks in advance.

6. Mis-capped case - how can i get back my "actual" bandwidth?[/b]

1. Save a screenshot of your router page with the upload and download bandwidth.
2. Make a call to streamyx hotline.
3. Tell them that you have been mis-capped.
4. Tell them that you are sure it has been mis-capped because :
    i) you discovered about it when u accessed your router configuration page (IMPORTANT!). And make sure the screenshot includes the date on the taskbar so that you can ask for a rebate (you don't have this they say they cant check bla bla bla and say you cant rebate cuz in their system its correct since the day its been activated)
    ii) you have a screenshot of it if they demand proof and u say u will send it thru email to them if necessary
  iii) add frustration and unsatisfactory tone (VERY IMPORTANT TOO)
  iv) be confident that you have been mis-capped. dont let the technician think ur a newbie
5. wait for 2-3 days, should be fixed by then. if not. continue to call, or just go to clickers and demand them to change on the same day or see their manager.

- I was a victim of mis-capped case too 2 years ago, got 512k instead of 1M. unfortunately i had to resort to step 5. Remember, you're the customer, dont need to be "understanding" to them. after all, this is their mistake, not yours.

*** tip by masamura! ***

By the way.. I'm here to let you guys know what to do if you are miscapped. Recently through my own experience of TMNet's crazy mood of purposely downgrading my 1Mbps link to 512Kbps, I've taken some steps that assured my restoration of speed. So here goes:

1) Make a report through 1300-88-9515
2) Call them once a day with the SAME report number that you initially got.
3) Call them till it's the 3rd *working* day.
4) Call them again on the 4th working day and tell them that you've just got "Suruhanjaya Komunikasi dan Multimedia Malaysia's" complain form and if the problem is not fixed by 7th day, you'll post it through POS-DAFTAR.
5) Continue to call them and also write e-mail to custcare@tm.net.my and tell them that you are going to complain to MCMC on the 7th day.
6) On the 7th day if they haven't fixed your problem(which I assure you, they will by now...) Go to http://www.mcmc.gov.my/consumer/complaint.asp and download the form, fill it in and send it to MCMC via POS-DAFTAR (for confirmation purpose).
7) MCMC will write a letter back to you within 3 working days. Scan this letter, attach it to custcare@tm.net.my and call 1300-88-9515 with the MCMC reference and let them know and tell them to update it to your report that you've complained to MCMC (it's part of MCMC's proceedure).

Finally..

Sit back. Continue to call them everyday.. be nice and talk to them nicely. Within 15 days, MCMC will call you and tell you that TMNet is going to send their technician the next working day + refund your lost of speed for that amount of time.. hehe! Personal experience!

Anyway, lesson to learn here is... Complaining at TMNet and LowYat do no good. If you *really* want to complain, go to MCMC!

>>> http://www.mcmc.gov.my <<<

p/s: As for me.. the technician came on a Sunday night and TMNet's senior engineer called me on the same night to confirm with me if my line have been upgraded to 1Mbps package. Took me about 1 month to get them to upgrade my line back + refund!
 
****************************
hope this helps......and please post here for extra suggestions here too.

p/s : i'm just a normal college student, i have no affliations with tmnet or whatso-ever.

SnoWFisH, thanks for this guide. It has been incredibly helpful.

I'm a subscriber to the original 512kbs, RM 88 per month package. Way back when 1MB was first introduced, they say they would automatically upgrade whoever subscribes to the 512kb one to 1MB. This was way back in 2005.

These few days my internet speed has been very bad. Online games keep dc half way and direct downloads keep stopping mid way.

I first called Streamyx up, they just reset the port for me. Speed improves a bit, but still no way near as satisfactory. Online games still dc. Downloads still dying.

I surf the net a bit to find some guides to check... lo and behold i discovered this thread. I went in to check in my router and it shows 512kbs for download.

I called up Streamyx again to verify what's my package. At first the guy says I have a 512kbs one (checked from his system). I said then why am I paying RM 88 a month? He then says he check on another system again and confirms it's actually 1MB line. I asked then why my router is showing 512kb? He says there's currently an unannounced maintenance going on and my speed might be affected. He reset the port again for me, and says if it's still slow; at least wait till tomorrow afternoon after maintenance and it should be back to normal.

So, Friday afternoon, still getting the bad speed. Called them up again. This time the lady agent admitted that I am on the wrong line. I am suppose to be 1MB but it's also showing 512kbs at their side. She made a report for me to get it resolved.

I realised I didn't ask about the refund so I call up again. Talked to another lady agent. I asked them to check when the problem started to happen, or is it all the while my line has been 512kbs while I am paying for a 1MB line? I am calling to talk about getting refunds.

Agent couldn't understand that I am asking about the refund part even though I gave her the report number made earlier. She even said she checked in the records, i did not made any confirmation on upgrading to 1MB line. I asked her back, if there is no confirmation from me to upgrading me to a 1MB line, then shouldn't my bill be reduced to RM 66 way back in 2005? i state my purpose of calling again is not to get the problem fix, as I just made a report earlier... this time calling is to ask about refund. The lady then says they can't talk about refund and passed me to the billing department.

Described my concerns again to the billing department lady agent. She says after the problem is resolved, then only can talk about refund. The phone agents are not able to check when it happened, only the technicians can check. So, now I am waiting for the problem to be solved.

Back in December last year, I had some phone line problem, and I accessed my router to check. I remember seeing the download rate as 512kbs... but I didn't know at that time it is stating the line I have. I thought it was detecting my current speed that it is going. At that time I didn't made any screen shots as I was certain it was the phone line that was noisy that is causing the disconnections. I manage to solved that myself.

Question: Is there a way for me to check whether it was somehow mis-capped or all the while I've been using a 512kbs line? I've only have the latest screen shot. Which is taken on Friday morning. The problem started to happen on Wednesday.

I am sure they are able to check, but if it turns out to be they did not upgrade me to 1mb way back in 2005 for me, but I am paying RM 88 all this time, they could still lie to me right?

Any advise is greatly appreciated.

i m paying RM 66 a month.

My Network connection status showsn speed is 2mb.

TM speed test shows ~400kbps dwnload, ~40kbps upload

This line/acc is rarely used. But ever since i start light torenting last week, speed become noticeably slow.

Since yesterday, i'm having frequent disconnection. My download SNR as per TM wifi modem is below 10dB most of the time, never above 15, upload is between 20 n 30.

So, what should i do? I dont intend to call 100 n talk nonsense. Prefer to identify the problem first.

Guys, sometimes around 8pm to next morning, the line become unstable or very slow speed, during the day, the speed was around 1.3mbps to 1.6mbps.
However, during the night it can be 0.2mbps to 0.3mbps only.. BTW, im subscribing 1mb package.

If I subscribe to 4.0mbps package, will it increase the night time speed to at least 1.6mbps? or still become 0.2 to 0.3 mbps?

Anybody subscribing to 4.0mbps having slow speed to less then 1mbps?

I just lodge a complaint to streamyx regarding my slow speed on specific time slot 10 - 1 am everyday.

The technician came over to my place and insist that my outbound phone line needed replacement (at your own cost). He insisted that is the line which is causing the slow connection and bad modem status value.

I argued that if the phone line is bad the connection should be bad all day long. Any idea? Should I pay the contractor to fix up my phone line? Was reluctant cause feeling to upgrade over unifi which coppperline surf no more use if Fibre optic were used..

My modem status
Up / Down Margin = 22/7
Up / Down Attenuation = 48/28

If you're switching to Unifi for real, then don't bother. Else i'm afraid with those line stats you are gonna have to fix up your phone line...

That attenuation is just horrendous (should be less than 20) and so is your margin (should be at least 20 both up and downstream)

there's a reason for the slow time slot: the fookin' filtered out certain ip addresses from the pool

oh ya, you might go: 'hoi noodlez... tolking kok again ah??' but as a wow player myself, my lil' bro likes to shoot and t-beg peeps in MGO and my lil sis whose just never stops download, the ip address required to gain more 'juice' when both of us are attempt to entertain ourselves thru game (albeit some lagness) and downloads.

the set of ip that i usually acquired are

118.100.xx.xx
115.133.xx.xx
60.49.xx.xx

(some peeps might had guessed where i live...)
the connection which is moderate for me and me lil bro to play while my sis is doing her heavy duty stuff on another pc are in range of 118.100.92.xx - 118.100.95.xx, resilient range for mass information transfer from few pcs.

i did some ip reset attempts from 11pm till 1am mid night for 2 weeks and i found out that not only the range are unreachable, but all the ip blocks are actually hazardous for me to login and play as it gives high latency to a point that makes the game unplayable when more than 1 pc is doing data transfer (jootubing, downloads, file sharing), unlike the resilient range i mentioned...

i find complain is no use as they are not technical enough to understand the technical talk but instead would attempt to use it as an advantage to exploit and scare those even less tech savvy end users away.

wat to do?
