QUOTE(yu_wang @ May 10 2007, 08:48 AM) here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submarine_communications_cable Dont think so,I'm just hoping TM can unthrottle the P2P after the cable is done.  1st. The Nutz never officially announce they throttling P2P. Do P2P Throttled? when? 2nd. The Nutz says P2P is against their policy, please read their T&C? 3rd. The Nutz says they WANNA help fight PIRACY in Malaysia, P2P = Piracy? 4th. The Nutz won't care for the minority P2P users that less than 20%. How bout 80%? 5th. The Nutz use other reason to counter P2P throttling. e.g. Firewall? AntiVirus? |

QUOTE(Aoshi_88 @ May 10 2007, 09:33 AM) I'm trying to be really optimistic here but i don't think i am because my toes will start laughing once they get started. This is because i am wondering to which company TMNET has sub-contracted the work to. LoL I kinda agree with you its kinda a Malaysia Boleh thing.......It's hard not to see or IGNORE the facts when/if they award the contract to a sub-contractor minus an open tender. Heck, even an open tender is also open to corruption as you invite non-bumi/non-family related companies to tender the job just to make things look good. Just look at Proton. |

QUOTE(+Newbie+ @ May 1 2007, 06:12 AM) How did we end up with the RM 50 million figure? I've gone through all the articles posted here about it as well as The Star. None mention the figure contributed by TM Net. Can the thread starter please provide more clarification? Read the whole thread man, the topics merged. Mine is quite accurate for an estimation ** Someone already posted an estimation on how much share of the bandwidth we would be getting based on the assumption of RM 50 million/RM 2 Billion ratio on page 2.  . |

QUOTE(laksamana @ May 8 2007, 10:25 AM) I think TM is doing the right thing. The way intercontinental cable systems work is that major telco operators SHARE the cost of construction and maintenance of the network. So, since the cable is expected to run from SE Asia all the way to the West Coast of the USA, paying $50m is proportionate to the SHARE of the bandwidth that TM will get. Bear in mind that bandwidth allocation is also a function of reciprocity i.e. how much traffic originates and terminates between destinations. I don't think getting an extra 30 gigabits would even help a little on our country, unless they plan to have that $50 mil as a reason for discounts.Plus, learn about the internet. In terms of how much we can upload and download, it is pretty much unlimited. We're talking about data transfers in terms of pipes anyway. The cable can download and upload 1.39 terabits (or is it?) of data at a time. To reduce the usage (hence more money for telco since they'll pay less for more customer) they would limit the amount of data the user can download. |

in TM's dictionary, unlimited mean limited. just add the word to all the advertisement tm throw to the media, u'll get the real picture.
For e.g. Unlimited (limited) MP3 download. |
