as far as i know, MCMC does not approve WIMAX to be used to create another service provider for internet connection, meaning there will never be any offering of streamyx like service which will utilize WIMAX... anyway off topic already..

Can you clarify on that?  I still don't get what you mean?

Isn't the whole point of getting WIMAX is to have wireless internet connection or am I wrong?

err ..how to say this aa... yes it is a wireless connection, but for service like hotspot and such.. not you can subscribe and used it at home... well, i heard la.. not sure really.. but the speed and coverage is much2 better than current standard.. (up to 70km if not mistaken0

Oh... okay.  I get what you mean.  Hopefully it is not like that when the time comes and we consumers can at least have a choice even if it is running on TM backbone.

For us in Kuching, Streamyx is currently our only choice.  My connection has been very, very unstable since beginning of May.

yes me too would like to have that option.. but as for time being... license is awarded ... but TM and other major player not getting it... heh heh.. with those company whose name is almost nobody in the industry... it will be very looooong time before it will be really kick off throughout the country... kroni's win again.. as usual

i dont think TMNET has any power in not letting competitor come in... it just that competitor can't afford to come in... so for now they are the king until somebody can challenge...

.. and port vs bandwidth is 2 different things..

are you sure ? according to a RUMOUR last time.. vodaphone wanted to buy over telekom malaysia, but goverment intervene to prevent them. same goes with digi/telenor.. they have money for wimax/3g project but government as usual wanted to protect so called "bumi" company ... smile.gif further more government is forcing digi/telenor to sell off their stake to < 50% which is no more control/say in the company.. so in a way we understood why ananda wanted full control of maxis smile.gif
blame on the government then...

in my oppinion, it is very risky to let others (foreigner) control our telecommunication service provider which services carry national security data ...

see what happen to our neighbour recently.. even their government don't like that kind of things...

FTTH only medium.. service won't change...

abechik,
the exchange is the box beside the road?
or you mean telekom building exchange?
*
exchange -- TM building

da' box you mentioned... FTTS

but i think I'm wrong there.. latency won't improve if the 'other end' is still so far far away.

i think it should depends on you usage... if surfing only .. no need la... waste your money..

if for other bandwidth hogging application (torrent excluded). then go ahead la fren..

if torrent.. i think the throttling is here to stay..

and to Priss...

i don't quite get what is there to argue with the 17 Jan dateline... it's called PROMOTIONIONAL PERIOD ... what's that has anything to do with bandwidth??

and how do you know they don't have enough bandwidth??
