Sometimes I really wonder how with all the superb high pings and all we can still stay in the game for so long without getting linkdeath or something. Can anyone please tell me how is this possible. Anyway, this just brings to the fragile state we are all in...so totally dependend on the scremyx service that we will be left with an unplayable game if they failed to buck up. I mean the undersea cable being disrupted happened only like last November right? Just a few months later and it screws up again? Just how many times does the cable need to screw up in a year?

p/s: I am really pissed now. Just a few days ago, I found a cyber cafe that allows me to play WoW normally(400ms on average) after 2 weeks of 2k pings at my home PC. I though at least with the cyber cafe, I could kind of immerse myself into the game once again. How wrong I am! Who would have known that the worst has yet to come.


I take back what I said...found Autosurf and guess what 210ms latency. Awesome. Guess I am so here until they fix the streamyx shit.

I sure hope so. Since they totally change the routing for the 219.95.***.*** since the ACPN2 cable was damaged. At least, TMNet will kind of acknowledge the problem earlier instead of saying there are no problems at all. Also since 219 IP is the most common IP used in the country, your assumption that they will reroute traffic for the better over the 218 IP and 60 IP seems downright obvious.

Its 1pm now and the ping is still good....lets hope its not another 1-DAY good ping and all the way down on the next. Lets all hope that its FIX for the better! This is with 219.95.***

Mine is on 219.95 and gets below 1k but mostly around 930k...still sucks anyway....but gone are all the lag spikes experienced earlier. So, the line really seems "fixed" under TMnuts eyes and I honestly don't think we 219.95 users would get the the below 500-600ms we were getting previously.

This stuff is nothing new. Everyone here is facing the same problem at the same time even with very different computer configurations for each user. Such as, reports of an improvement in latency and the 2k pings at the same time with 219.95..users...and that one day nice latency...I am sure everybody remembers that day... Besides nothing in my PC has been changed at all since I played WoW lol. With my computer its always playing WoW, no downloading stuff anymore except patch day but downloading files won't hurt? It has been 500-700ms on day one till the DM patch. A few days before the DM patch, latency was around 1.0-1.5k...so its equally bad...



You know, thinking about this...I am very sure Jaring Broadband will be a much better alternative. Streamyx in my area may be oversubcribed and they probably don't upgrade the DSLAM they had for 5 years now but with increased subcription rate of 300% in the area. But then again 219.95 users are nationwide and even those in rural areas experienced the same ping as those in Klang Valley. So what gives?

TMNet just sucks.....plain and simple.

Funny, all was good until 20th. Previously the latency was really good but with a few lag spikes...not that bad considering the lag spikes average about 6s long and not that frequent anyway(at least the lag spikes doesn't occur at the wrong time most of the time). All I can say now is bye bye to my mage char for ever doing ANY high end instance again. IAE every 3s? Poly takes 3.5s? This is a joke.

And Tarpaucase....my place is old, so its gotta be those age old copper wires from 20 years back...no idea if they change the line before or not. The only thing I am aware of is Tenaga changing their distribution lines to homes. Before this thread started, I did experience some lagspike but then it was a server side lag cause everyone else said so in general chat.

Yeah, most of us is getting that ping. It would have been perfect if not for the packet loss. Anyway, we just need to keep on pushing TMNet, calling them repeatedly, pestering them about the packet loss. It is because if you wanna play WoW, streamyx is the best ever response time...well before not now...don't even think of Jaring Broadband wireless cause its even worse as all wireless is.

i've been playing whole day today with average 650ms in game with a 219.95 IP. Not bad and no noticeable lag spikes. Guess its good from now I hope.

I have no more bad pings for me right now as I am having 56ms latency but too bad its only temporary and I don't have much time to play it So, has streamyx stabilized to the 500ms range lately? Between 56ms and 500ms is not that noticeable but once it gets to around 1k is when it starts to suck real bad.

So...I am very curious. What is the latency right now for WoW atm? I still remember that stupid "bad dream" shit that happens after DM patch...and the following weeks.

This is not good and its totally what I am worrying about and ALSO at the same time, TMNET happens to be doing the MAINTENANCE again right after the patch day of WoW (why is it such a coincidence??? TMNet had previously timed it after the DM patch too...and now they did the same with the BG patch!) You know bad things always happens with their International Link maintenance.

Hey, Eikan....ya 500~600 feels just great....getting yellow latency bars in both IF and Ogrimmar is phenomenal and ~300-400 in Dre Maul feels so great. It was like going to a better world. And it so happens that my six-month subscription ends today....lol.

Same...I hope its temporary only.....hopefully its not like the "April-June Latency" all over again....

At least you guys still can get on the internet. My ADSL line went down last Friday. I called them up on Monday and they told me its fine. The people at Telekom thinks they need to do is to reset connection at the Telekom exchange near my house and they close the case intuitively thinking that should do it without even calling back to find out if my connection is all good. First class customer service to tell you!

After a few complaints later and 3 days later, they decided to send someone to check my line and confirmed that their line is faulty at the connection port where it diverts from the main line to my house. They told me they can't do it cause they need two people to do it. Their response in when they will get it done? They said "Kalau boleh, minggu ini." Its like OMFG tomorrow is the last official day day before the raya and deepavali week.

If they expect me to have zero internet access during the holiday week...the best time to work with my PvP rankings...then I will say bye bye to streamyx and get Jaring wired broadband...which many say is comparable.

is streamyx still lagging today? I am always on the 219.95.xxx....no chance on others IP lah. so if streamyx lag i guarantee die one..can't play

lucky you. I get 219.95.....100% of the time. I tried before to get that but failed.

I am very blur can anyone tell me why the tracert at step 9 is timeout now? Thanks.

The * is the sucker.

Anything thats streamyx suck balls lol....

I have discontinued my WoW account, all thanks to TMNut for providing such a lousy service. Malaysia tak boleh la. Nothing pissed me off more than seeing a * when doing a tracert.

Latest rant is dated OCT 30. More than a month! Seriously, streamyx giving you folks a good time now?

Damn and I was thinking about signing up for WoW again. So I guess I won't activate my account until BC comes out. And lets hope for the best!
