GameSky You might want to add this photo as proof:

According to TM - greater value packages / broadband improvement plan = Webe discount/HyppTV packages (which most of the users won't be using) / GemFIVE vouchers (RM25, seriously?) shakehead.gif

Say no to wifi. Stability issues. Loss packets. Cable connection is far more superior than wifi in any form. Don't fall for this trap.

Either Unifi or riot.

probably some bullshit excuses as usual..or trying to offer those unifi mobile wireless..

Let's just hope that they aren't trying to offer them UniFi Wireless broadband for Streamyx users as an upgrade sweat.gif

But I have a hunch that they may do that sweat.gif

fixed line; no quota, lower latency and stable connection.
wireless? everyone know wireless mobile broadband will always get issues.

Also.... Their wireless broadband plan will throttle all the way down to 128kbps when you used up their 60GB data allotment sweat.gif

Wireless broadband is not a proper replacement for wired broadband, due to physical limitations in the wireless spectrum icon_idea.gif

At the very least as well, they should really put more VDSL/VDSL2 lines if they can. DSL can be very, very fast if properly implemented icon_idea.gif

ADSL is way too outdated, and there are technologies such as G.fast that allows DSL to reach very high speeds icon_idea.gif

In the UK, you can even get DSL with speeds of 330Mbps/50Mbps through G.fast icon_idea.gif

BT is the UK equivalent of TM here icon_idea.gif

connection might degrade over distance, still can't match fiber connection...from what I know, you'll still need ftth termination nearby.
unifi broadband (purely internet only), running purely on their 4G network. Unifi bebas (phone prepaid plan/postpaid), riding on celcom 3g if out of 4g coverage.
there's first post on how to complaint, but will update more later.

If that's the case - well it might just better to use FTTH, it's just more futureproof hmm.gif

Sometimes it's kinda weird for them to rollout UniFi to some less densely populated areas where other areas which are more densely populated and just as well developed are getting nothing at all. Worst still there are people who wanted UniFi but cannot do so because of 'no port' shakehead.gif

Please don't hype too much . Optical fiber is the better way to go.

ADSL / VDSL/VDSL2 is using  DSL technology..so, basically they are the same thing.
I'm affraid TM infrastructure is  far below the par.. so it won't be cheap too, if we use it national-wide. (while other country is using 18Mbps on ADSL in last decade, we only offer 2-4Mbps Max ,and 8Mbps is the max speed u can get in 2018)
The stability and the futureproof is not as good as optical fiber.

btw, it may still to be  a good option for those appartment or condo without optical fiber . but, i think optical fiber is still the better way to go(if their appartment management is wise enought..).

That's why I said FTTH is the more future proof tech earlier icon_idea.gif

60GB allotment and 1Mbps downloads after using up the quota... That's not exactly useful here sweat.gif

Consider that quite a few Steam games can easily go over the 60GB size, the UniFi basic is pretty much unusable for those who download Steam games sweat.gif

yup.. hence we as consumers also need to expose the dirty TM practices as well. let them know ..somed everything

Also it appears TM is hinting to use their Wireless Broadband plan as a replacement for Streamyx:

From UniFi Basic plan FAQ:

Q: What about the customers who are not within the unifi coverage area?
A: For customers not in unifi areas, we are offering our unifi Wireless Broadband which allows customers to be connected through our portable, plug and play device at the price of RM79 for 60GB of quota.

Well hopefully this is not true sweat.gif

unifi broadband? you're lucky if you can pass over 5Mbps. Really bad coverage and it's not stable compared to fixed line broadband. TM has been in comfort zone too long, let's viral it.
*
That's why wireless broadband is not a proper replacement for wired ones, especially those who use a lot of latency-sensitive, high bandwidth applications such as video conferencing, working remotely over VPN and gaming icon_idea.gif

Worst still wireless broadband is highly susceptible to weather fluctuations and congestion, which means that the speeds can drop significantly icon_idea.gif

TM live chat mentioned that if no infrastructure for streamyx 8mbps to go for UNIFI will be remained with the plan 8mbps. If have infrastructure by other other ISP such as Maxis or TIME TM will use the facilities.

TM stupid or what I do not know. If there any other ISP for sure I already terminated streamyx.

This is not going to bode well for Streamyx users sweat.gif

well ..it's a complaint.. and most users already been "abused" by TM for many years dy.. first, we played nice, nothing. then the rest following up..same.

so?
most streamyx users not eligible, unless that area got unifi coverage afaik..
and some those in promo package, lite streamyx seems not eligible as well

Again, the golden rule when it comes to complaints is always be professional and assertive. Never attempt to be rude at the people handling your complaint - afterall they are humans too smile.gif

As a former customer service (non-TM) officer, we are likely to serve polite customers nicely rather than rude ones, even though the customers may be very dissatisfied in the service icon_idea.gif

See here: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2017/11...1&post=34278921

This one is a textbook example why you should never be rude to customer service people icon_idea.gif

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G.hn

G.hn is a specification for home networking with data rates up to 2 Gbit/s and operation over four types of legacy wires: telephone wiring, coaxial cables, power lines and plastic optical fiber.

TM oh TM just adapt this G.hn thing and wahlaaa solve ur fiber coverage problem

There's also G.fast too, if they really want to do it (which I doubt) icon_idea.gif

In fact in the UK, you can get something like 330Mbps/50Mbps out from a DSL line through G.fast icon_idea.gif

So TNB is moving towards fibre internet hmm.gif

https://themalaysianreserve.com/2018/07/30/...dband-business/

I have a feeling this could be something like municipally-owned fibre networks in some parts of the US hmm.gif
