btwn, juz check with u , is the antennae u using now is the one Rm38(from izzi site)? or the internal or external one? thankss..

Everything just suck at the moment either Emule or BT. I planned to hang around for another 2 months before getting my 6 months refund. For any people outside that considering using IZZI, be prepared for all this fuzz!

i never knew there are other types of antenna provided by izzi until i checked their site .
yes its the indoor one rm38

it would make no difference... the RM38 antenna is just the same with the pro antenna's strength. For iPro, you should be using the panel antenna if you wish to boost it

yes it makes a lot of difference, my speed increase from 50kB/s to 120kB/s with the antenna. want to know how i got it, read my lengthy post a few post behind. my signal is 100% with or without the antenna but the speed is so much different , im still figuring out why.

ok.. i try to put my modem under my pc table now... frankly.. it does help.. now speedtest more than 300kbps compare previous 100++kbps.... both oso 100% signal, so will got it a try for few more places....... i tot it need an open space with less intefere would be better?..

hmmm... i will try to refer it to the technician then... maybe he can tell me more about it. Thanx for your feedback.

its not so much about the the antenna, its the positioning of the antenna. it is easier to move just antenna than to move the modem.

@wongzai
seems you got positive result

@ghostxvii
ya.. seems like getting better hope can get somewhere else. still looking for it

I also facing slow BT download < 10kB/s since one week ago eventhough signal strength 100%.
I am using Izzi One package with antenna. Location Selayang baru.
According to Izzi customer service, they start to control BT usage like other ISPs.

Jeff, nothing related to you PC or antenna otr router issue.

BTW, FYI my BT download speed can reach 100kB/s if using Streamyx 1MB..

to bittorrent users, i believe izzi is throttling connection by how much you are uploading, try limiting upload speed. i did a test (http/direct download not bittorrent), when i download without using my upload bandwidth, download speed is around 1mbps but when im uploading at 10kBps (which is around 1/3 max upload speed) download speed dropped to half.

about the antenna, read my post below
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=17503404
it is the rm38 indoor antenna (i forgot to put the price in the post above)

Hi all,

I ve been using Izzi for 1 month plus also..

Same problem... dl speed damn slow... so fed up with it...

I think their Izzi are really controling P2P usage.... my dl speed never more than 40KB/s

ARGGHHH... frustrated !!

i just got my izzi broadband connection, i got the izzi pro package. i live near Sg.Long

The sales guy was quite a good fella, he spend quite some time looking for the best signal strength by moving his laptop with the Izzi USB + Antenna. Of course i have to help him a bit too. So apparently the best signal i could get from the second floor (my wifi router station there) is on the floor. Put it on the table, it drop from 100% to 50%. Apparently, starting he thought my tinted sliding door windows were blocking the signal, so i got the sliding door open to the balcony & SURPRISE! no difference in strength, even he was baffle. So it has to station on the floor of the room. Walls are NO GOOD for the Izzi.

The interesting thing is, when i close my curtain the PING jump from 175ms to 350ms. Hmmm... 4G... Doubtful...

Apparently, i ask some question while the sales guy set it up for me, nice fella, maybe because i treat him a glass of Tesco Cola:

1) After 12 months, what is the payment like?
RM88/month, the reason, wanting to fight with Streamyx 1Mbps connection.

2) How to pay after 12 months?
He said Izzi will come out with something like a prepaid card of sorts, so you buy the Izzi payment card & log into your account & key in the code from the card.

3) What's the average signal strength that you get when he setup for his customers?
Usually only 70%-80%. "But i got 90%-100%. The thing is i got to put it on the floor on my seccond floor to get that kind of signal"

Done port forwarding ma?So Izzi not good for ur comment?

my best speed when downloading torrent is about 127KBps. but on average its like about 80KBps depending on the seeds.

yup...when 1 start use it around 3-4months ago..really got tis speed also...but now day...max 30-40KBps..
btw...where is ur location ?

look like alot of izzi user facing this problem after few month later. is that mean izzi use same tactic like maxis 3G? reduce the speed after few month or few week.

Pandan Indah.

But they have a refund package 3 months & 6 months later, right. That makes this kind of tactic kind of pointless as more/less users are paying use per month. Throttling users bandwidth is a bad bad thing. Maxis has the worse reputation...
