Hey guys anyone has recent experience of relocating their Streamyx?

Just wondering how long does the process take usually and how much do I need to pay TM for it?

Trying to plan properly so I can limit my internet downtime as much as possible without terminating and applying a new account.

same here, end up just adding extra bandwidth

You might want to check if there's anything heating the wire ie. microwave oven nearby, etc.

It could also be a sign that there may be too much power in your wire and/or your wire is sub standard (ie. too thin)

But as advised, better call them instead of fixing it yourself.

nope nothing near the wiring or phone box also. I been using the same wire from the same shop for the past 7 years, just recently this 2 years it started behaved like this. Maybe bcos KL keep have thunderstrom recently that burnt the wire. Too many factors to think.

anyone having lags on gaming lately
connection sucks lately ,cant even play games.
but as for downloading i got no problem.

That depends on what games you play and the server location

how do you know?

asked one of the technician that installed my streamyx last time :s ..

Recently, my mum asked the technician regarding with UniFi coverage in my area, he told her that it will be enabled within 2 months.
I'm hoping he's not giving me false hopes. Though, I'm still awaiting my reply from TM. I will be on tenterhooks.

guys anyone experiencing slow dl speed on torrent? My speed is constantly <10kbps the whole day even with high seeders. Port forwarded but still no changes. Even my friends also experiencing the same problem.

I believe my torrent is cap but is it possible for me to call TM to lift it ?

same here. it seems to be throttled.

it has been almost a month my torrent is at 20-30kB/s ..if lucky got 40-ish kB/s.. so its confirm throttled? this is my streamyx line for my kampung in Kamunting.. my unifi in PJ no prob at all for torrent downloading..

recently i change hardware and reformat my pc. guess what? my torrent speed skyrocket to 400++.. but last 3 day back to 10-30 kbps. i really dun understand what happen..

Dear Sifus,

Does anyone knows whether Streamyx is enough to keep CCTV and alarm system working or I would need a faster internet connection?

Thanks!

I also experience increase in dl via torrent but yesterday down to 10kbs!

I think if just normal DVR should be fine, but if HD DVR then... I don't think so as Streamyx only has an up speed of 512kbps (At best)

If you have the extra money. Go for Unifi, the extra upload is much better for surveillance monitoring

from my observation & some testing, torrent is definitely throttled by TM. tested by downloading a very active torrent, with 10k+ seeder.

my own house -> throttled
friend house (same area) -> throttled
office (20km away from my house) -> throttled
cousins house (even further) -> throttled

Yes, i do admit sometime i get high speed like 300kB/s, but itll only last for about few minutes, then the speed plummet to 5 ~ 15 kB/s.

*confirmed method to bypass the throttle is using proxy, "HTTPS" type works best. "SOCKS5" sometime cant update tracker, VPN will do as well, but the only downside is that it will tunnel your entire connection (on the pc which connected to VPN only) which will cause slow response on web browsing, and lag during online gaming.

theres plenty of free proxy list/VPN out there (google it), but you cant really rely on the speed. hence, its free

get yourself a cheap VPS to set up some proxy or VPN. also keep in mind, downloading illegal torrent might risk your VPS on getting suspended. so, keep yourself away from *it*, ip echoleon is monitoring them well, not sure how they did it.

*it* = mostly the movie the people head/silhouette in it

pretty sure the throttle already been use since quite sometime already, just sometime will get full speed.. or not

well.. it seem the cause of speed drop past days was my port setting. use forwarded port=slow. i change to random, get full speed back. which make me really . it's suppose to be forwarded=fast. and honestly, i just enjoy while the speed last..
