It's still too ridiculously expensive.

Add another RM10 you would already get a real fixed line at home from Streamyx which allows you to download like 4-5GB continuously a day without any slowdowns.

Better still our neighbour country Thailand sells 10mbps ADSL2+ at RM60 rates.Been downloading Youtube videos and movies at an average 1MB/s to around 800kB/s all day long. It's like haven. Daily traffic rate touching close to 10GB daily without any restrictions as long as the crowd don't build up during peak hours.

Still want the 15GB plan for RM120? My takes is that it's not worth it at all.

What is Maxis marketing this as?

They call it Wireless Broadband.

With RM120 for just a stingy 15GB quota this is hardly called fixed internet.
You can't call this mobile internet either since it's SIM is not meant to be used freely on any phone but a fixed router device in your house.

Is this what the greedy telcos plan to replace all fixed lines in future?

An average 2mbps Streamyx user which just cost RM10 more is using around 4GB a day on plain downloading and video streaming. If I apply the same usage habit on this, is plan, will it be only good for me just a week before I'm capped with an almost disabled line for the rest of the month? How much does every gigabyte of data top up cost after this?
