i was using maxis for more than 2 yrs...but lately the speed n connection started to suck big time...so...now am into P1....so far soo gooooood...

the recent "sucks big time" you're experiencing is that Maxis DNS has problems in getting our requested page, hence my complaints on Maxis DNS and resorting to use openDNS.

a free DNS server hosted at Europe solves all the problems when using a paid DNS (maxis). what a shame.

QUOTE(LokiD.d.G @ Sep 5 2009, 01:35 AM)
I could argue otherwise, but seeing as it is pointless, I'll concede the point.

In any case, I agree that the Maxis sales people are incompetent at best. When applying for the wired broadband, they somehow got my application mixed up and that resulted in me having to go back to their center in Sunway Pyramid to reapply. Though on a lighter note, their sales rep informed me that Maxis wired has no fair usage policy. I.e. The download quota is unlimited. Hooray.
*
so you're using maxis wired now? congratz biggrin.gif

btw, not many people knew about the wired broadband. and i had many experience on getting farked up at maxis SC:

1. billing problem
2. address problem
3. WTF-is-this-shit-i-donno-there's-wired-broadband problem

shakehead.gif

luckily the broadband itself is good.

Not quite yet. I just reapplied yesterday, i.e. Friday evening. Seeing as Monday is a holiday, the soonest I'll be able to get said wired broadband is on Tuesday. Hopefully nothing goes wrong with the application this time around. Though, truth be told, it wouldn't surprise me at all if something did.
Succinctly put. Couldn't agree more myself.
*
well, i hope you'll enjoy the wired broadband WITHOUT MUCH HASSLE laugh.gif

also, keep in mind, if the Service and DSL is up, but u can't go into any page, try obtaining the DNS IP from openDNS.

maxis DNS usually sucks during public holiday where everyone is at home (e.g Merdeka) but not during Festive holiday (e.g Raya, CNY)

Hi guys. I've got another query.

How good is the modem/router supplied by Maxis? Lets say I want to have my router on the ground floor, and my PCs on the first floor? Will it still be able to function efficiently? Or should I consider getting another router or even a new modem+router?
*
maxis's modem is for one PC only. for additional PCs u have to buy a switch or a wifi router or just replace it with an ADSL wifi router. smile.gif

btw the modem is Aztech DSL 605E.

zz, the modem can't withstand heat.

after several hours, speed degrades and fluctuates to almost 1/2. sweat.gif

oh really? it doesn't happen to me..
btw, I like maxis one thing..
direct download.. any time the download will get full speed
unlike streamyx.. some of the time only get full speed doh.gif
*
yup yup, that is why i liek maxis wired. biggrin.gif

QUOTE(LokiD.d.G @ Sep 8 2009, 09:14 AM)
Perhaps a change is warranted, then. I'll put it through some stress tests soon. If it disappoints, then I'll start keeping an eye out for modem+router 2 in 1 models that are compatible with Maxis wired broadband.
*
please do so. i'll probably look for alternative wireless modem router to replace that modem too.

The Aztech modem is being stubborn. I have followed the instructions on portforward.com to the letter, and yet I cannot download anything via uTorrent. Frustrating day. Any ideas as tho what the problem may be?

have u added the settings and pressed submit?

also, click "save settings" at the left navigation panel.

Yeah, I have the same model. Funny thing is, the DSL605E doesn't seem to have its own set of instructions on portforward.com. The only ones which come close are the two I stated above.
*
oops, sorry i didn't properly read your question.

u can try to use 605EW's instruction. smile.gif

Finally got it to work. Was being a complete idiot. I forgot I wasn't running the default Windows firewall. Once I had added the appropriate exception, uTorrent ran fine.  doh.gif

hmm? didn't usually Windows will prompt u to allow or deny utorrent the moment u double clicked it?

Maxis wired free upgrades - from 256 to 512 & 1.0 to 2.0.

got the memo which hinted immediate and automatic effectiveness of the upgrade from Maxis yesterday. my speed has not been upgraded yet though. called Tech support and as usual they don't know anything about it ....

can anyone who has actually recieved the upgrade confirm/share the necessary procedure to activate the upgrade if there is any such procedure at all?

... p/s feel free to brag about your newly upgraded & uncapped download speed if you have rclxm9.gif

no wonder my speed is 2Mbps. been bragging since last month about 1Mbps but get 2Mbps tongue.gif

QUOTE(KKW @ Oct 3 2009, 02:38 AM)
waa so good..
why they dont give free upgrade when I'm using it doh.gif
btw, bro where u get the information ?
*
bro, i just bought Belkin Wireless ADSL modem router F5D7634. can use with maxis wired. during installation got option of our ISP, just use either Jaring or Streamyx Home, then insert your username and password gotten from your old maxis modem.

BELKIN MODEM ROCKS!
