this not true wimax, my company use it... airzed using antenna and install into your premis... their transmitter at menara meraih ss19 pj..... true wimax using wifi card a/b/g....looooo...!

p/s: airzed control bandwith using packeteer packetshaper.....p2p very damme slow...! 

i m very sure dat tm will lose it possesion over broadband user...good news!!

where is ur source to gv that comment? u built wimax izit? u so sure would be like tat?
damn la...pesimistic...i didnt say its bad...im saying u are full of shit or wat but hope u show abit prove b4 gv some weird claims la....no offence alrite?

i knw for the fact is wimax can bring tmnut to their knees to offer better service n cheaper price.ok..lets hope on ppl!!!

Well, bysquashy isn't talking crap. Any wireless tech. will always have poorer network latency than copper wire. You can't defy the law of physics. Look at it this way: air < copper < fiber optic

~200ms is, IMO, the average latency for OFDM (i.e. WiMAX) to the next hop (i.e., base station), after considering user traffic and NLOS-ness (Non Line-of-Sight). It can be better than 200ms, but you'd have to be one of the handful number of users camping on the WiMAX base station AND be in LOS to it. Best case scenario should be about 50-100ms. BTW, network latency to the Internet is subject to the number of hops taken to its destination, so that may very well exceed 200ms on average.

(prior to the WiMAX tender, I don't think anyone has ever heard of MIB Comm... ;P)

but im stil in the blur state...this wimax run in 2.3ghz spectrum with 802.1a/b/g rite? so our normal laptop wit wifi capability could jus detect it n connect la...if i wan to get those extra usb extension antenna thinggy...need to buy la?
since u r wimax technical ppl....

got to improve the backbone first laa. of course the backbone are TM.

WiMAX is not WIFI (IEEE802.11a/b/g)
WIFI is not WIMAX

For both standards to be inter-operable, you'll need dual-band access device. If you want dual-band devices, you wait la. I think the cows will come home first.

Once you have dual-band devices, then you can think about making your own home-made dual antenna systems.

so bysquashy, if interband connectivity is possible....then my place i put up tment n make it wifi, i could jus access my own broadband at home thru this wimax network izit?

wah then the hopping will me so much greater..like 300-400ms la....ok ok
another question, the CPE u talking bout is the usb thing izit? here can buy ah? u can gv recommend? i saw it on the net but i dunno what izit called...i tot there was 1 which could excess even 3g network n wimax....u got any idea?

when it work???

RM1250 ???

Im pondering...

10,000 BTS
cost RM 250,000 per station
Total investment = 10,000 x rm250,000
= RM2,500,000,000 (ie RM 2.5bil)

Total possible subscriber = 2,000,000 (ie 2 mil)

Cost per subscriber = RM2.5 bil / 2 mil
= RM1250/-

I would say the above is FLAWED CALCULATION as it ASSUME ONE TIME SUBSCRIPTION PAYMENT. But subscribers pay every month.

And according to the "flawed" calculation, if the total investment can be paid back in one month period... ITS A DAMN GOOD BUSINESS as the service providers receive RM2.5 billion monthly (excluding other costs)... 

Fitch: WiMAX will be 'moderately disruptive' for telecoms mart

Mac 26,    FITCH Ratings last week said the emergence of WiMAX services in Malaysia would be "moderately disruptive" for the telecommunications market over the longer term.Malaysia recently awarded the much sought after WiMAX spectrum to four small bidders, sidelining bids from three large telcos, namely Telekom Malaysia ™, Maxis Communications and DiGi.

Fitch said while Maxis should remain relatively unaffected there would be implications for TM's fixed broadband operations as well as for DiGi's longer term competitive position in mobile communication.The four successful applicants were Bizsurf (M) Sdn Bhd, MIB Comm Sdn Bhd, Asiaspace Dotcom Sdn Bhd and Redtone CNX Broadband Sdn Bhd, with the first three each awarded 30MHz in the 2.3GHz band for provision of services in Peninsular Malaysia, while Redtone was allocated 25MHz in the same band for Sabah and Sarawak.

The licence allocations are tied to stringent rollout requirements, which call for a service provision of at least 1Mbps and 40 per cent population coverage by 2009, at an estimated capital expenditure of about RM300 million for each operator over the next three years.Fitch said although WiMAX, the trade name for a group of wireless standards that encompasses both fixed-wireless and portable/mobile deployments, is still largely an unproven technology, it could prove moderately disruptive to telecom markets over the longer term.

"By eliminating the need for copper or fibre last-mile installation, WiMAX offers a lower-cost replacement option for traditional broadband solutions such as digital subscriber lines (DSL) and cables."Additionally, the mobile version of WiMAX is expected to support voice and data access at high vehicular speeds," said Priya Gupta, director, corporates.

I thought even the Wimax specifications don't have 100 mbit?
