Trace complete.
2 digit ping? it is totally impossible for me. Trace route to google, the nearest router already have plenty of latecy.
Opps... these information might give the experts some clue where I'm located now....

You are using a Pocket PC Device. It does act as a router too. So pretty much it hops to the pocketPC first before sending the packet to maxis routers. Its normal for a phone to have high latency , afterall they aren't dedicated Modems.

That shows how bullsh*t maxis is.
I tried playing in Garena, play halfway, dc from server.
Play Hamachi, couldn't even connect to friends...
Spread the word... don't let anyone regret using their crappy service.

Isn't it obvious ?. They are blocking all the ports as they can , so that bandwidth can be maintained at all times. This is the reason why I said good bye to them and hello to streamyx. I find it that streamyx is better. Heck even my JARING Wireless was way better then that despite the crappy latency. Its because they don't block any funny stuff. Reminds me of my university internet line whereby they block ICMP requests (you can't ping/traceroute) at all.

To be fair, it depends of your requirement. For online game, bursty packet is definately unacceptable.
But for me, I work alone far away from my home town and rent a single room. The only time I can sit down and use internet is during the night time. Thus streamy is not for me. As a result, I subscribe the unlimited 99 as a VAS to my voice plan so that I can email and browsing on the road.
I have to say, despite the bursty nature of the packet, it is very fast. Watching streaming video is awsome, and much much faster than 1M streamyx.
You're using the so-called unlimited plan. I heard that they are going to throttle that as well as it was uncapped before this , meaning that you guys can get ot enjoy superb bandwidth and no restrictions. But lately , maxis has imposed some restrictions , do see the result in the coming months. Not to scare you but they might throttle p2p connections

I have this question...if i were to subscribe the RM99 unlimited month package...let say i cancel in the mid of the month, so do they return the pro rated $$ back?
No Idea
