If your area has TM UniFi, get UniFi
If not, go for TM Streamyx

Remember, as bad as TM goes, they are still the best ISP in Malaysia

Best solution is to have leased line. Of course provided you had the budget icon_idea.gif brows.gif

I'm currently subscribed to YES at my mum's place. Unlimited quota supposedly. And it's always lagging. At times, just to load 1 email take a full minute. This has been happening for a year now.

Ada budget then:
Telco: Maxis
Internet: Unifi 50mbps

Value for money:
Telco: Celcom and its MNVO(to some extent)
Internet: Unifi 30mbps

I've been trying to play some multiplayer games with Maxis Fibre's 10Mbps offerings, and... I want to punch a wall.

So. Many. Packets. Lost.

Considered slow if you compare it to fiber network but it's pretty impressive for Wimax technology

I thought that you're talking about telco for your phone since this is a telco subforum. If you're talking about Internet, there's:
Internet: Unifi, Maxis, Time, and etc etc

For telco:
Telco(for phone): DiGi, Maxis, Celcom, U Mobile

Generally, using Unifi for both your office and home would be better, Maxis although it is cheaper but it seems to have more issues(each to their own but oh well)

Here's something to read up on for Maxis: https://forum.lowyat.net/MaxisFibre
And for Unifi: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3760202/+2200

I'd suggest to get at least Unifi Advance 30(30mbps) for your home, while for your office, I don't know what are your bandwidth requirements so go and take a look yourself here(https://www.tm.com.my/allnewunifi/pages/business.html), since you are from sg with a much faster internet than here laugh.gif
