It's about the same.

You can get a 3rd party modem router for under RM100 nowadays.

Having a problem with my 4mbps line.

I've been using it for a few years with no problem, but recently it has started having disconnection and low speed problems.

1. At random times during the day, internet will disconnect. When it reconnects, speed will be very low - below 1mbps. SNR also will be around 6 - 10.

2. Reported to TM - they said my house wiring problem. I hired a contractor to check and change wire from my house to the wire pole. Same problem.

3. Reported to TM again - technician came and "fix" the pole outside. Still the same problem.

So this time I have reported to TM AGAIN and also CFM.

Anyone experience this issue before or know what might the problem be?

I think TM has been trying to cap the speed slowly and make us to switch to UNIFI

My case until now still the same, very slow upload speed => https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=3370244&hl=

By since i now seldom upload file, i didn't bother to complaint again

I got a call from TM sales team, trying to promote upgrading for me.

He got excited when I said I'm interested to signup for upgrade to 4mbps. He offered RM120 per month without land line rental.

Seems like a good deal to me.

So do u still have to pay for the rental of a telephone line, or is it just a pure data line that comes for RM120?

I still can maintain my landline without rental, free call to landline and charged for calls to mobile. I confirmed that couple times with him.

Good deal. Grab it! TM seems to be dropping prices every so often. In the past I was offered RM150 for 4meg streamyx with phone line. Didn't take it. Then they dropped to RM140...I didn't bite. Then they reduced to RM130...I bit. Now u can get it for RM120/month...u saved RM240 for the 2 yr contract! I wonder why they have such disparate pricings...read about some users can get 4meg for RM88/month, but it's only available to certain areas/income group or something like that.

Anyways congrats and enjoy yr speedier connect. I've already run out of stuff I wanna download

Tm start block many website. Especially to china.

snr 6 - 10db is unusual, it may lead to frequent synchronization issue. mayb there is something wrong in the dslam. i have experience about this last time.

btw, do your adsl splitter is still functioning well? try connect the phone line direct to the modem without using splitter.

post your adsl status here, mayb other can assist you.

just get a cheap 3rd party wireless modem from tplink to replace it. it should cost below RM100.

How to post adsl status ? I'm using TP-link model W8901N

My 4mb kena throttle already, BT can only get around 10-20kb/s even with alot of seeds...zzz

Where can I apply for it? Hav u applied? Is it available for every area?

i also got called last friday from tm and offer me a upgrade package to 8mbps deal for rm 10 xtra from the current 4mps for rm 140 , damn good price i say, double the speed for just rm 150 a month

anyone experiencing slow browsing speed recently? cant even load web pages properly.

Got to give that to TM!

Already selling among the slowest fixed line internet plans in the world with 1-4mbps ADSL, yet still tell you they need to throttle Youtube and downloads.

This is pure rubbish talk. Their Streamyx is priced almost that of 1Gbps plans in other countries(whihc is almost 1000X faster) yet they still feel the need to throttle.

What has the consumer association in Malaysia have to say about this? Oh no maybe SKMM has been warning them to zip their lips not to interfere in this ridiculous move.

I have applied it, over the phone.
The line will automatically be upgraded to 4mbps within 7 working days. Now no change yet... Will give an update here when i get it.
It was call from them (they call quite ofter, several times a year). Do not know how to contact them, try asking TM Point?

today i found out streamyx secretly change my downstream speed from 5012 to 2047...
also my fixed line phone stop working, can't even call 100 to get help.

do other ppl encounter this situation( secretly change downstream speed) too?
