I'm quite sure I don't need a higher speed...have already downloaded the internet and dunno what to do anymore ( tongue.gif )

But seriously speaking, the higher upload rate of Unifi Lite vis-a-vis Streamyx's anemic crawl is a great relief. Uploading audio tracks in .wav format is no longer a slow and painful process. One song can have 5 to 9 tracks with dry/wet versions sometimes having 2 or 3 takes per track. And uploading RAW images is also a breeze now. I'm rather happy!

Haha, if TM tele-marketer offer you +RM10/20/30 per month to move from 10Mbps to 30Mbps, will you accept the offer?  brows.gif

My answer will be a resounding and absolute NO!

However I will happily accept a 50% discount for remaining at 10mbps. Yeah right...dream on andy....dream on! biggrin.gif

Not really a dream. IMO, TM restructure the pricing to RM99+RM30+RM20 may have a hidden agenda.
Maybe we can unbundle HyppTV a few months later. HyppTV locked in for only 12 months instead of 24 months.
They will introduce Unifi RM99 pack to kill Streamyx 1/2/4.

WOW! Yes come to think of it, you may be right!!

Paying a lower price (with correspondingly lower GST) would be most welcome indeed smile.gif

Pak Jib will increase GST % after PRU14.

Sigh....with the way things are going currently, there is that possibility for sure.

TM works in mysterious ways. I think, like you, I live in a fringe area on a lorong smack in-between the "official" HSBB and SUBB delineations. About 3 yrs ago I saw workmen changing the telephone cables for new copper in my area. Said to myself that it looks like I'll not get fiber, while the other tamans around me already had or were having fiber cables pulled to them.

An "unofficial" source in TM's tech dept once mentioned to me that they want to get fiber out ASAP, but there were budgetary constraints due to having to replace/repair infrastructure that were damaged or destroyed in flood zones, especially in the east cost states of Semenanjung. Those were unforeseen and extraordinary costs, and getting telecommunications running again in those zones took priority. It was just casual chat between me and him, but his reason made sense.

Fast forward about 1 yr 10 months and a new cabinet was installed on my street, and the black/yellow fiber cables were rolled out. Hopefully your area will get the budget and have fiber soon.
