The guy said now new subcriber come with attenna...i'm not sure true or not.

i'm using izzione without any antenna and i'm staying in desa serdang. i found out that i need to face my UT towards MINES then onli can get 100% signal consistently Bandwidth also has gone up

i guess that the tower might be at Mines...hehehe...

well that inclusive of the previous 4 towers that was proposed to be online by 15th October. i guess now they postpone it along with the other new 5 towers to 31st October.

it was in my prediction that it would finish at the end of the month...

Hi. I just got my izzi internet, and I'm getting abysmal bandwidth. My area is Bandar Utama, and I'm quite near Centrepoint. So I'm not sure what to do about this connection.

you will have to wait little longer... cuz from the coverage area, i see that they are covering TTDI... Since you live in Bandar Utama, your signal strength might be better...

Well anyway, the guy at Lowyat told me the Damansara Perdana station will be ready by the end of this month, so he said the signal would be better. I take that to mean that it will be much better than the less than 100kbps I'm getting. lol I am trying this service first because I checked out the website, Centrepoint supposed to have a station. And that guy told me a customer tested in KDU, getting 300kbps bandwidth.

Pinged to KL using the speedtest.net website, I get a ping of 500, the best result I got was 260+ ping, compared with my Streamyx connection (via wireless router) of 115 or so ping. But still the download and upload speed is terrible, less than 10KB. Sometimes the ping is ok for a wireless service that isn't at nearly full strength, but occasionally it appears to cannot download anything even when there's a signal.

Hi, just wanna check how is the coverage at Tmn Mayang PJ area?? Anyone using at that area?

just went to low yat last weekend and saw the same bunch of people that was there 2 weeks ago when they claim, they're doing promo for that specific weekend only @.@

Its normal... this is because they hadn't got enough subscriber yet... it should be something like supply and demand... they want to supply better coverage... but the demand is not that high yet... so, when there is sufficient subscribers, they might slow down on their promotion...

tmn mayang or tmn mayang jaya?
me in tmn megah next to mayang jaya
signal very poor 30% out site

but currently using my own antenna signal went up to 100%

ur own antenna? cool, can show a pic? how u make it?

Well for the promotion dates, I went to their website and it was from 16th to the 21st. Last friday, the guy told me they could extend the promotion there. Sure enough, today I logon to Izzi's website, and they posted that the promotion at lowyat will be for another week (22th to 28th).

Anyway, went back there today, asked the guy why I didnt get an antenna and told him about the terrible conenction I was getting. Well he said if I like to, I can deposit RM50 to get one of their antenna (I believe they are called resellers, so they got the antenna from somewhere and they claim to have limited supply). Shortly I got it for RM30, went back home and tested it out. So I am quite satisfied at the speed currently. My signal goes between 90-98% as long as I don't move the laptop or antenna, and it can actually reach 100%. Of course I had to position my laptop a little nearer the edge to have some more space away from the wall.

My latest speedtest result at speedtest.net to KL is 473 kbps/142 kbps. Well since the signal already nearly at full strength, I'm not sure if adding another base station (They said Damansara Perdana) will boost the bandwidth even more.

edit: pings to LA and Cananda are around 350ms on average. You might expect something like 108/97kbps with that.

i believe that it would boost the bandwidth... cuz there is intersaction of the bandwitdth for sharing on both tower....
That is what i believe in lah of course... heheheheh

is it true that can use the izzi to make as a wifi in a limited range of area, home? office? room? as a wireless network?

that i am not sure... where did you hear it from?

Ya mayang jaya, last time the lim kok weng there.
Your own antenna?? u mean u DIY the antenna urself or how?

If u telling ur latest speedtest.net ot KL is 473 kbps/142 kbps means is that 100% of the speed. isn't 100% is 1000 kbps?

And guys did any one got the antena for free before? I heard one may just get it for free if the connection is very bad. But how we know, wireless broadband is meant for mobility rite. So we might need it while on move rite. So can't we request for it and get it free? did any one got it for free under this situation...

I got my antenna, and the sales person just told me that it was part of thier current promo. No need to even ask for it.

Well the speeds in KL at my office is good, when using speed test I usually get around 850 to 960 kbps for download. And large file downloads from http, I get average of about 70KB/s. Highest it has peaked was 130KB/s......
