Hi there,

Next year my new house in Sunway Iskandar will be ready and I plan to move there. But to my surprise there's no unifi, maxis or even time. From the agents at Sunway, it seems the fiber is laid by their own IT company Sunway Digital Wave and their package is RM99 for 100mb, contract 2 years. Not sure if price will change back to RM128 after that.

Anyone currently using their fiber residential internet service? Any comments? Personally I don't like this kind of arrangement. I think will have lots of traffic control especially p2p and gaming. But it seems we do not have a choice...

Wow very impressed! How you get all these information? According to their website they do provide dynamic ip to residential customer.

Anyway I don't use ipv6 for now, future don't know. Do you know how is the performance? I had bad experience before with this kind of resell Internet bandwidth. Worse than maxis since Sunway won't have its own backbone. They are basically like your neighbour subletting the Internet access sharing the same subscribed bandwidth. Not to mention if there is any restrictions or in event of long turnover for downtime fix.

They're like reselling TM Unifi service with backup from ViewQwest.

Here is their upstream bandwidth chart:

50% of their overall bandwidth comes from TM, another 49% from ViewQwest for IPv4.
For IPv6, it's entirely using Hurricane Electric.

Doubt they can provide public IPv4 to their home customers. Their IP blocks can only support like 2048 ip addresses.

They want to follow the developer run ISP model like the company called Arteria Networks in Japan where they force all their projects to use their own company's run ISP bundling the fee into their monthly management fees.
