It's good that they don't provide us with broadband over 8Mbps cuz we all know the services they give us, on the darkside.. 4Mbps for RM250+ is totally ridiculous.

Come on, with prices of goods/services going up nowadays, how many ordinary customers willing to pay RM198/mth?

Oh I see, I'll wait patiently then

I'm going to give the 4 Mbps package a try. I'm already on the 2 Mbps package for RM188 so I might as well pay RM10 more for 4 Mbps. Will let you guys know how the process is. Applied today and was informed it will take less than 9 days to install. Application very smooth in Damansara Utama TM branch.

Current speed I'm getting now is below.

u are lucky to even get 1.5..

i am paying 99 permonth with modem and only for 1mbps

Actually you are pretty much 100% wrong in this case. More bandwidth = faster-loading pages.

If having twice the bandwidth means you can load two 50K pages in half the time, then it also means you can load one 50K page in half the time.

Rayfoo : Sorry for bombarding you with more questions..

Do you have to pay installation fee and service activation fee again when you requested the upgrade at TMPoint? I'm on the RM88 package w/o modem atm and am considering to upgrade to this offer.

New login id means you can't keep your current email address or it's the same, just login ID changed?

Thanks.

instllation & service fee is applicable, will be billed to your bill, for this upgrade they will require their contractor to come over to do the installation for you, new login id but you can maintain your old streamyx email address

rayfoo....
when will u getting the new line?

Wi-Max is coming, thats why!!!!!! Cheaper faster internet, without a fixed line, get people signed up for at lease a year, haha

i reckon this package is good if your house has many users. like college student houses.

there's a sucker born every minute...the ringling brothers motto

can we complain to someone about the unjustified price. in the radio got say if got price increase on necessity products because government servant got pay increment do report to the authority.

I applied for an upgrade at Shah Alam TMpoint, they don't even have it on their database. Still waiting for their call if my area can upgrade to 4MB.

aiya u people ask u to wait first, still want apply...good luck hope u guys have better experience than me...my application still in limbo somewhere...

i think it is better to have a few users to apply. Who knows one might experience a nitemare while other maybe a dream. TM network infra not consistent like in penang 1mbps package still is 1024 but mine 1mbps package is 1.5mbps dl, no consistency at all.

im using 512 Kbps , means half your regret, half time the lost and half time the headache

Added on May 23, 2007, 2:29 pmim using 512 Kbps , but in the modem indicated 1 MB downlaod 512 upload ... but download speed is still only 512 which is 52KBps ...

rm 66 ... what you expect ...

my friend using 1MB package ... modem indicate 1.5Mb up 512k down
download torrent or anything ... 100KBps ... which means still 1MB ....

so its not gonna be any different...
the sync speed with DSLAM only something to indicate only ...
while download speed still same .... ><

they cap by account, not DSLAM...
and i yo ... 4 Mb package.... only ligit within 3KM of the dslam exchange.... i last check was about 5 KM away from exchange...
2 mb or 4 mb streamyx ... i think it is still a dream for me ...

good news, just heard from TM people , my order should be fixed and appear in the system tomorrow morning, if it appears... then can proceed with installation finally...

Rayfoo i can't wait to hear from you.


Ray another thread they talked about 5 mb broadband for RM 199 a month. It's a fttp ( fiber to the premises ). The setup cost totals to 1000 for the first month.

perfect reason to upgrade to 4Mbps package, but then......
