Hi guys,

Do you guys experience issues where the Streamyx router intermittently resets a connection to a server when the download cap is reached ? Say if you're on 4Mbps, when you reach 4Mbps (aka 500 KBps) download, the router resets your connection.

I experienced this many times in torrents and downloading tutorial videos.

IF I do not limit my downloads to less than 500KBps, the connections are constantly reset, means my download drops to 0KBps. And because this happens so frequently, my download never reaches full speed.

So what I did was limit the download on my downloading software to 100KBps for each download. With this the connection is smooth and the connection won't get reset. 

This happens to torrent as well. If I do not limit torrent downloads to 450KBps, when the download hits 500KBps, the connection resets. I can't surf, I can't do anything. The only solution is limit torrent speed.

I suspect the TM router is configured in a way to stop us from constantly hitting the maximum download. Any thoughts here?

Another guy asked about this before. Slightly long explanation, but here you go:
So to clarify, yes, the call was definitely from TM. The notification varies, some get sms, emails, automated calls... Internet usage definitely has no quota, but your total bill per month does...My explanation above might be a bit messy, so if you have any other doubts, ask away...

Your modem router cannot support. Ram too small can lead to this problem happening. Just ask TM to give you a better router.

I've never heard of such thing before. LOL YOu sure ?

nah, the call mention quota limit, not credit limit
and i paid every month..no tunggakan at all

Not very sure. Sometimes, it can be the router problem or the ISP blocks the P2P connection.

Many times it's HTTP download. Like downloading tutorial videos from YouTube.

Does TMNET provide free TM Router ?

Anyone can advise how to reduce the SNR and attenuation?

so is it the incoming dsl cable problems? my streamyx connection is stable, just cant fully utilize the speed it has.

Maybe you can ask TM to set your speed to what you applied for.

The other day i went TM, they say flat i living in only up to 4Mbps. Can't go higher than that.

The odd thing is, sometimes, during start of download (steam/origin) the speed can up to 1MBps. Slowly down to 430KBps. The last time i called TM technician in for ADSL carrier issue, he reset the port and change downstream to 5120Mbps. That time. i enjoyed max speed 4Mbps++ for months, no issue. Now only 3.6Mbps, capped. When make inquiry, they standard answer me 80% from max speed is okay.

How is it okay being capped at 80% max speed? Nowadays, really feel been taken advantaged of by TM. But i have no other better choice. My flat there no other better BB service, even though it being surrounded by HSBB

It is not a cap, it is best effort service.

So i guess TM will only commit 80% of advertised "effort" because it seems to be they can do better for me. Intermittent 80% effort can consider best effort. All the time is 80% of advertised effort = ? 

But i still sayang TM due to minimal downtime and stable (at best effort) connection. Not to mention no data quota 

omg so sadding see the pink side banner. RM150++ can get 100Mbps already. Meanwhile Streamyx 4Mbps..when can turun harga ;

Nah... give you to look at it so that you will not feel thirsty.
