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"

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... mad.gif
