Want to apply to streamy next month, want to do analysis first.

i am thinking of getting the RM66 and use own modem. if the modem is their's it's RM77.

Is it like that ?

i am staying in Bandar Sunway and will any ADSL modem will do ? even it's not in their certified list ? who will come and still the connection or can do ourself ?

u can do setting yrself & save up RM 88 - installation charges.

RM 66 u can use yr own modem as far as is a DSL modem.

PM me if u wanna register, i can help u out, if everything is fine, should be ready within 1 week time.

cheer...

how 2 install by myself? i've never install ADSL, dial-up all the time is it the same like installing dial-up?

if u use a ADSL modem (no router), is really simple setup up, just like normal dial-up setting.

but everytime u need to do the connection after u switch on yr PC.

if u wanna setup that when u switch on the PC straight away get connected, u need a modem with rounter.

You can get better MODEM outside with the price they offer. I prefer own MODEM.

Not neccesarily true.

You need an ADSL modem with built-in dailer software (not the ones using WinPOET or USB type ADSL modem).

Like my case, I have a D-Link DSL-300G ADSL modem.
This model is not a router, but it has built-in dailer and DHCP server and it uses LAN cable connection (non-USB).

But since the DSL-300G is already obsolete (replaced by DSL-500T), most if not all the ADSL modem with built-in dailer nowadays are modem/router combo.

I have a Modem Router certified by TMnet for streamyx usage. PM if interested.

If you can go for RM77, Its good package but you sign agreement for 2 yrs.

Some of the member in this forum has mentioned that they terminated their connection before completing one year without paying extra. If its true then I think you also ignore this 2 year agreement matter.

If not,go for RM66 pack.

Buy any modem router your own ( if you can afford buy modem router with 4 port LAN,the best. Today you have only 1PC for sure next 1 yr you will have a notebook then you can use both) price are not much difference.

You can opt for self installation. Just get any of your friend who have little knowledge of their own Streamyx connection. they can help. Only problem I faced is when I opt for own installation,I had to run behind TM Point ppl..call call call.. to connect my line to DSL port. If agent means they followup and get it done in 1-2 day. If you do your own it takes week,it happend with me.but you saved 88,you can invest that in buying good router.

hope this helps. Keep us posted. if any problem in installing.

for ur information - any modem out there can be set 2 become a router modem, even those provided by streamyx..all u need is the user name and password onli....

I don't know but i bought my own modem and use the 66 package. Well it suxs since the lightning striked and my modem is kong... so i have to buy a new one :S

now got promotion for rm77 package..u can get 1mbps for rm77 with free modem..but tie for 2 year..b4 rm77 is onli 512kbps with modem...

but 1 thing suck about streamyx...i use for 1 year ++ so my 1 year tie is over..but they still continue charging u even they disabale ur account n email if u dun pay for 2 months..
if u dun call 2 terminate..they still continue charging....wtf...

Ok, Confused over so many modem, some with routher, some without,

some cannot straight connect to internet, some always connect.

it is more save money if you get your own modem....... nowadays a ADSL modem only cost below RM150. Consider u use it on the long run, it is more worth it.

the modem that can direct connect to the internet is router, some with 4 port switch, means that u can share your internet connection with your roommate or etc.....
