nice ping for streamyx.. envy you.. mine around 50+

Maybe it is due to I stay nearer to the cabinet. My ADSL stats are pretty nice too.

No scam...but I have a crappy ping time today.

Not to say yr installer is totally wrong too. When streamyx 4mbps was first offered in my town, TM point staff told me that I couldn't upgrade from 1mbps to 4mbps because my address was over 5km between 2 exchanges. FML!
Fast forward a few years. A TM technician told me they were installing "boosters" to my area. I dunno what that "booster" is, but about 2 months later I could upgrade to 4mbps on the Blockbuster package and life was better.
Fast forward 4+ more years. TM installed new grey cabinets, changed wooden telephone poles to cement, replaced the copper wiring and I was offered 8mbps for RM160 nett (GST had yet to be introduced). I didn't bite. Fast forward a few more years, price dropped to RM140 + GST for 8mbps and I subscribed to 8mbps in Aug 2016. Then TM added those black and yellow cables to my area. I was offered 5mbps with free upgrade to 10mbps, and recently offered unifi 30mbps. Am not biting.
Almost the same case as me apart from the black and yellow cables. They somehow missed my row. The row next to me got offered Unifi.
Booster basically is another cabinet nearer to you.

How to know how far is my actual connection between the nearest TM exchange point?
Here's my SpeedTest result:

Just look around for a boxy cabinet labeled TM or ask the technician.
