I would support JinXXX saying.
More users = more revenue = more $$ for upgrade.
But as you can see... there aren't that many users at the moment. but i am sure when it starts to boom, upgrading service would be tremendously fast..
perhaps someone could do some research on IBurst in other countries like UK,US,Lebanon,South Africa....etc...

See what they do with it....

This theory will have to apply as IBurst is link to Kyocera technology... It is a breakthrough for most wireless broadband.. If this theory does not apply in malaysia, I believe that Kyocera would make sound... Though Kyocera themself would love to see more revenues generated in Malaysia... but they would also know that customer satisfaction itself will help to boost the revenues in malaysia...

So, conclusion is, there needs to be more subscriber to izzi if you wanted to see more upgrades. Furthermore, they are building 4 extra signal post in Damasara Perdana, Kepong,Serdang and Cheras 9th mile... the would be a good start.

This is in the website ma... though they said it would be finished in OCT 15... but frankly speaking... we know how malaysia do things. So, i don't expect they finish on time anyway...

As for maxis wireless broadband.... puih... i really hated that... the connection speed had never been fast enough... But i have no choice but to use their mobile service...hehehehe...

kajika81, Have you tried calling them telling what is your situation? Perhaps you should call the technical support and see what their answers is... Do let us know their answers..

Oh... by the way jinxx, i was told that the signal post would not be given the exact location... this is to prevent users to have conflict of coverage...
ex: if a user knows where the exact location is, the user would move to the nearest he could get thus making that area loaded....I hope you get what i mean.[attachmentid=314241]

well if more people move there.. then they should upgrade it to support the amount of users what..

dont tell me next time they are going to give us the bullshit not enough port/bandwidth for that particular tower and all ? , i think users have enough of this kind of bullshit from providers already..

JinXXX, i know that you are being skeptical about this. but heck... didn't i say that there aren't that much user yet? don't you get it? lets say there are 1000 subscriber... 100 of them goes to the same signal tower... the rest are distributed evenly.... what about those that is slightly futher from the tower?

Sometimes you can't just stand on one side to talk about things... try to stand on both sides... i am standing on both sides to review about izzi cuz i plan to get one next month. THats why i am reviewing every single customer's feedback here.

Hi, Raya is ain't an reasonable excuse for them to postpone the base station to be on air on time, dude.
At first they said will be ready on air on 15th Sept. Luckily that time i haven't subscribe izzi yet (Afraid they will delay).
Next update from izzi, 4 site will be on air on 30th Sept. As predicted.
Finally i tot they should be ready on OCT soon. I was subscribe it. Now i was just like paying the money but w/o getting their service.
Do u think is fair for me? Although is said to be tentatively to be ready, but they shall keep their promise ma ...
no offense, just my opinion and express out my dissatisfaction.

If that is the case, you could ask them for a customer satisfaction refund... You could always do that as their signal in your area is weak... better more if there is no signal, then you could get a full refund within 7 days... of course there would be RM180 handling fees...
Tell me... which service provider doesn't have a problem at all when they launch? Even streamyx itself have problems when they launched... but they improvised from that...
Izzi would be improvising too... and when they do, i believe that you will not find any other WBB better than them in Klang Valley.

I don't think it'll be a fully refund as they will deduct some for their Administration fee. I think it is about RM75.00.  Correct me if I'm wrong.

I will ditch my Celcom 3G D68 plan once iZZi covers the WHOLE Malaysia (Including Sabah & Sarawak). For me, this is the benchmark to see whether they capable of managing competitions as well as strong business developement ethics.
*
Heh... you are skeptical about this arent you... but i have good faith that it will not cover the whole of malaysia... Face the fact.. even streamyx does not cover the whole of malaysia as a cable broadband service provider... And the administration fees is RM180. the admin fees is for those who do not want the service within a week.

And i believe that they will boom in November and december if my prediction is correct... Look at their resellers... they are even attached to CNI which is a local direct selling company. I wonder plans they gave to them... or maybe just another resellers like Broadband2u.com

lol.... what a big joke about that sales girl... I believe she is given limited resource to answer your questions... Perhaps you should be asking the technical support about that answer... and how can 1 tower support 1 million user.... there are only about 25 million ppl in Malaysia...(Correct me if i am wrong)
Sometimes sales person will do anything just to get the sales... i hate those sales ppl if they do...

Higher System Spectral Efficiency

 
In summary, all of the above technical characteristics in a typical iBurst system deployment scenario in a 5MHz spectrum, can be put together to explain how efficient use of frequency is achieved by iBurst system. The maximum data rate per user becomes 1,061 kbps for downlink and 346 kbps for uplink there by resulting in the total throughput per BS of 32.361Mbps as illustrated below.

  Max cell Throughput (downlink) 1,061kbps x 21 + 707kbps x 3 = 24,402kbps
  Max cell Throughput (uplink) 346kbps x 21 + 231kbps x 3 = 7,959kbps
  Max cell Throughput (total) 24,402kbps +7,959kbps =32,361kbps

Since the spectrum (frequency bandwidth) is 5 MHz in typical deployments, theoretical iBurst system's spectral efficiency of total throughput per Base station becomes 32.361kbps/5MHz =6.47bps/sec/Cell 

pick up fr http://global.kyocera.com/prdct/telecom/of...icalsystem.html

max per station is 24mbps, how can it support 500 ppl unless it reduce the quality right?
*
well... 500 ppl per station... 1 MB per user... even if it reduce to 0.5MB, that means it can support up to 1k users... but frankly speaking... i have no idea on how many user would that be around 1 station. When there are sufficient users in an area like town area, there would be more than 1 station. So, i believe it would be good...

tested izzi by in my house at 11 floor, Desa Sri Puteri, Desa Petaling today.
found this guy from lelong, asked him come to my house to test, then only decide want or not...good service?
You no need to pay if you think no good signal...

so test result was not good, 40% near window, if indoor only 20-30%.
download - 200-300kbps
upload - 100kbps

before this, i saw a shop in Tesco, Cheras, the test speed there can up to 1000kbps.

So i don want to take risk to sign up, even the t&c said can get refund within 7 days if not satisfy, but must pay RM180 admin fees.

i'm actually using streamyx 1mb, but since last month until now, my download speed only about 100-300kbps ( before 700-800kbps ), upload 300kbps.
So i decided to change to izzi, but now look like the signal here not so good, so i give up and stay with streamyx.

Streamyx 1mb super fast in my working place, USJ21, dl 1500kbps, upload 350kbps....

So suggest who decide to use izzi, can search lelong.com, type broadband and search.
Hope this help.
Ask this guy come to your house and test....good idea?
This guy also can do easy payment by credit card, he can just fill the form, call the bank and get approval.
Everything can do in your house....
*
LOL.... i am not sure of the signal tower that is near to Desa Petaling.... but since you said that the signal is 40%, that means is not near to any tower... thus your line is a bit slow... but i am sure that they are gonna upgrade pretty soon.

okay... one of my friend is using izzi wireless broadband... He stays in serdang. his coverage was 40% before he added the antenna. When he added the antenna, it was 100% coverage already... The speed is good.


Before Antenna
233 kbps(download), 30kbps(upload)

After Antenna
Download Speed: 983 kbps (122.9 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 170 kbps (21.3 KB/sec transfer rate)

well... i was told that the antenna cost RM68... If they want to include the antenna into the UT, the package would be higher in price.

Everything comes with a cost.... but they are trying to minimize the cost.. Not everyone needs the antenna... Furthermore, after they had upgraded their service, antenna might not even be needed... so, why would they want to include the antenna cost in it?

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...

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...

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

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