can anyone recommend me any sales person or rep to call to come over to my house to test. staying in PJ. wanna get the speed tested.
A couple of questions
-Can u sign up right there and then if you're satisfied with the speed?
-Any hidden charges for cards that are not in the list for their month EPP ?
-Can I be sure that they'll provide me a service ? (I mean they're not a conner)

actually, the antenna, they can say lotsa things punya la...some say promo only got, some bad signal only got, some say if u get from him then got, some say hv to buy then got, some say get,izziyou then got, some say buy fast while stock last then get free, some like me very lengchai then gotfor free...is see how u talk it out to get for free la...nowhere stated must need condition to get the antenna for free i think...find a loophole n pressure them from there to give u free lar...for me, cuz im early bird, he mah gimme free lor...

no hidden charges for cards installment.

i'm asking for charges for cards not listed lar
maybe they will charge dunno wat how many % administration fee lar this lar that lar, like most shops in low yat they got charge from 2% for credit card transactions

the charges would be dealt with the dealer themself... not by consumer... Lowyat charges 2% is because there are too many fraud i think....

From what my experience goes, 100% signal does not mean I can get the maximum bandwidth. For a short while, my link speed download shown in the iBurst modem utl window was 890kbps. lol

just realised the pictures are too small, meh.

Hi All

Just wanna share my experience with all.

I am staying in K.J (PJ) and I had been using izzi for almost a month now. The speed is terrible. At times especially during my using period btw 10.00pm till 12.00am its even slower than dial-up. To make matter worst the line is automatically cut-off randomly.

I complaint to their support people and yet they cannot offer me any solution. FYI, the signal strength is very good. I can get >95% most of the time.

However, like what want of my friend said, wireless broadband is still wireless and thats 3G or mobile transmission protocol hence pool quality and unstable.

After this episode and experience I think TM is still the best. At least I can still do email checking and normal surfing. Though P2P with streamxy is slow, u should try izzi out........forever....worst. Upload speed is terrible.......embarassing.

Will try to attached sspeedtest result for you to see here.

Here's some more result. Hope to hear some comment and perhaps advice.

i think you are trying to discourage ppl to subscribe izzi.... why? Man... why would you take your old report to upload here? Take the new report la. Try to provide us your exact location so that we know roughtly which place of KJ you are staying at.

i'm getting pretty good bandwidth here in serdang. last nite the speed has been constantly around 800 to 1000kbps. just finish downloading 3 dramas 170Mb each probably less than 2 hours i think coz i left the pc on when i sleep one file reach a download speed of 100kb/s Since i subscribed to izzi for the past 3 weeks, i've downloaded more than 10 series dramas (>170Mb each), 5 full length movies (>3Gb) and been surfing webpages smoothly. just sometimes there are a few hiccups (stagnant low speed) which i try to disconnect and reconnect again and its good to go again.

maybe you could try set your MTU to 1400 to see if there is any difference. i've used tweakmaster free download to set mine. i'm pretty satisfied with izzi so far except for the early 5% credit card charges for subscription only

it is just ridiculous because they dont have maybank as one of their EPP scheme, why the hell would they be asking for a maybank card. wouldn't it be better to just pay cash for it then, siao lar them

yala, i think they can't differentiate maybank card with mbf card

i thought they accept RHB, HSBC and MBF card only? its stated in their website, those 3 card only hav zero interest installment.

as for the interest free thing, i believe they would be improvising it... cuz most of the charges would be bear by the reseller and so the reseller ask you to bear it lo...hehehe....

I will be trying to get distributorship from izzi.... when i get it, i will try to ask them for 0% interest la... heheheheh... then by that time, you guys could apply from me.... heheheheh....

hahhaha, good idea of u
then let us pay u back monthly without charging so much at one go lar

i dono why u guys hv the interest itnerest thing...new scheme ka...cuz tht time i get, he said no interest, check my statement no extra charges too, then my rental payment is exactly as i calculated it to be...i used EON back which is not in the website...ive to filled form then verify with eon cc customer service

But how to know the current MTU setting. I am using Windows XP service pack 2. And how about for windows 2000. Can we check that with the tweakmaster?

How can i arrange a monthly payment with you wor... You will be dealing with the bank... the only thing that i might be able to do is to waive the interest...

maybe you can try out the MTU Optimizer from www.iburst.com.au first . It will shows you your current MTU and option to set a new value. But nevertheless TweakMaster has fail safe feature whr u can backup ur registry first just incase anything happens. Do it in your own risk k i've tried mine and nothing broken yet

Added on October 24, 2007, 6:40 pmso far so good lor using 1400. last nite was kinda slow around 8-11pm. but after that it recover and even went past 1024kbps, i think i saw it reach 1090+, hehe, and when i look at xunlei my file was downloading at speed 116kb/s max. i tried not to leave it overnite download too much, scared later they ban me for heavy use or something since someone mentioned it b4 in their terms & condition.

Phew...after do a exhaustive research for this kind of service (yes, even i read every single post at this thread) no need to mention about googling and wiki (hopefully my boss will not read my post here as I abuse office internet connection ), finally I decide to buy one.

I choose Izzi USB. Deal with one salesperson (very nice and professional), he offer to come to my house, setup the demo unit to my pc and test as much as I want (well, he still in my house la)...i really satisfied with the product. REALLY satisfy. I have countless of unhappy time with streamyx before and migrate to Izzi seem a very good step for me. I get 100% signal strength and still, that guy has no hesitation at all to offer me the antenna for free. The bandwith, even not as fast as streamyx (sometime), I consistently get about 800-900 kbps. The latency to various website about 150 ms to 250 ms.

Testing to my fav online MMORPG games...the lag almost same with streamyx.

P2P havent test yet but will update soon.

my location :

Kelana Jaya, near LRT Depot. Level 15. Location of my PC, hidden under my PC room bunker (aka surrounded by all wall except a door. Open up the door 100%, close the door 100% too

I really recommend for those who want to enjoy fast broadband, affordable and also risk free, to ask the sales guy / girl to test the connection at your very own pc and home. Then you decide.

I am now a very satisfy and happy customer .
