Bro, take a look of my result. Izzit poor? Upload speed slower than DL.

My Data LED on my ZTE modem (The big fat one) keep on blinking all the while. Is this normal among you guys?

LOL bro, 1st time see this kind of thing..btw anyone can recomment either maxis broad band or celcom broadband, which 1 better?

too slow la.. even ur upload rate is higher than download rate

Wrong thread to post your Streamyx rant!

I am posting on a 1mb Streamyx now and my speed test shows that I'm getting on average 1250-1300kbps on downloads with uploads averaging between 350-400kbps.

For your case, it could very well be your port being faulty, your computer being full of trojan ad-wares or your computer is too slow to accommodate a broadband connection.

The Streamyx problem is already solved in most areas now.Indirectly, they have no choice partly because of the upcoming elections which they need to upkeep the reputation of some parties.

Your posting of Streamyx issues here makes it curious for everyone because it makes your points more of indirect downplaying of others more than asking for help.If you're sincere please continue your connection issues in some other relevant thread instead.

You'll surely regret it after switching from a wired connection to a wireless one.

Added on February 27, 2008, 9:29 pmFor pings in excess of 500ms?

You have to be joking!
Even ping rates above 100ms is already considered bad.

The recommended response time should be less than 100ms and ideally, you should have your first hop less than 50ms to the nearest gateway.

As a comparison a fiber connection should bring your ping rates to single digit results like 5ms-1ms similar to the network setup in cyber cafes or your home wired network.

A good DSL connection should get you around 30-40ms to your first hop or a local site.

This kind of results will never be achieved on a HSDPA connection in operation because wireless connections are cursed with high ping rates.

my line seems stable now..dl rate become faster than before,thanks maxis BB!!!!

wireless is share conections. if u complain your streamyx sux, u will get more problem with wireless broadband.

It should not be 80Kbps.. something wrong there.. Maxis not good at all place, some place got good signal while some got sux signal.

I suggest you stick with streamyx and solve you speed problem, contack their technition for futhure help and support

better go streamyx if u already subsribe...
i already use both and i know the different wired and wireless


p/s : honest advice from maxis bb subscriber....

Dudes, check out this website. http://www.bandrich.com/products.aspx

It has a HSDPA usb dongle and HSDPA express card. I saw the usb dongle in Penang, they are selling at RM899. They are currently displaying this product. The sales fellow says this the latest product in the market. The size about the same as Huawei E220 usb modem, maybe a bit smaller. It has a small rectangular external antenna where u can flip it up and down. Take a look at the its picture on the website, its located at the far end of the dongle whereas the near end is the usb connector (covered).

I am not sure about the quality, so can't comment on it.

Really?Then i better don subscribe wireless..

Maxis BB so bad in services ??? ..... any commands?

I have question here:
i) RM68, RM78 and RM98 package is come with which modem? ZTE modem? Is this modem only can connect RJ-45 to our PC only? No build-in wireless and no build-in router right? got only 1 RJ-45 port right? Is this modem rent or free?

ii) any low price package which come with new modem+router+wireless (E960)? .... RM158 only? Is this modem free or rent?

1) If you buy a switch then yes you can connect it to more then 1 PC. The ZTE Modem itself is a cheap router. So you dont have to buy a router. All you need is a switch

2) The modem is rental , dont think you own the modem. All maxis bb modems are in rental-based. Meaning that you dont get to own them

Thanks for your info....so how about RM178 package?....just get HP Laptop free only? and the USB modem still need to return back after 24 months?....

No need return the modem for HP package. Last 2 days for HP Package!

can the existing subscriber change to the promotion package bro?

The RM178 with HP + USB modem...right?
This modem only can use on USB.....wonder how to share for more than 1 pc...?
Need router?....

The conclusion is, wired connection will better than the wireless? I think my phone line is having some problems.

of course wired is much better,if ur priority is mobility,better go for wireless

Alrite, thx for advise. So Maxis BB for laptop user.
