I just readed this whole thread, i'm living in perak which is the same as you.

Goingto give up on Time broadband, because from what i readed, they're only catered to condominium or high buildingds.

as for Perak region where most are landed properties, wait 10 years.

even unifi is not widely available in perak, not to say Selangor, and Perak would have to wait 1~4 years before having it coverage for our place.

If Unifi have to wait 1~4 years, how about Time? 5~10 years possibly.

until to this date, i don't understand how people's mindset works. let's say a example.

Not i'm being racist, other race like chinese or indian also have.
You see alot of this happens on Burger stall between Malays in alot of place, where you see a burger stall is having very good business, next few days or few weeks, another burger stall open just few blocks away or opposite streets. doh.gif  doh.gif  doh.gif

this is because Time install their own cable. TM won the contract for HSBB a few years back. If Time wants to maximise their coverage, they can do it like Maxis and use TM's infra. but there is a pro and cons to it. it is very unlikely for Time to maintain their unlimited bandwith usage should they go for this method.

and the cost of laying the cable is pretty high, which is why they target dense area like high rise buildings and the likes. Which would ensure that they can maintain their current price and the unlimited bandwith.

hope this'll clarify some stuff!  icon_rolleyes.gif

p/s: i have no information on how Time really operates, and their business decision, but this is the explanation that i could think of.  biggrin.gif and no, i am not a Time's customer, i use unifi vip5  tongue.gif but would def jump ship to Time should the opportunity arise

IF COVERAGE whole malaysia everyone will have 100MB line,rm179 for 100mb better then rm249 for 2mb.right?
