QUOTE(tancth @ Sep 21 2008, 04:19 AM) anyone using maxis wireless power broadband package near old klang road, kl? it claim the connection can go up to 3.6 Mbps. wats the average bandwidth? i am thinking of switching to maxis from streamyx (a real pain in the @ss). between wired and wireless broadband, which is better? [attachmentid=600499] this is the so call broadband service provided by streamyx.  i think wireless would be better...i am using it by the way...in setapak jaya somewhere near sri rampai...the speed is suck actually...but i just boycott TM so i would just stay with maxis....well, i may choose to switch to U-Mobile later...anyone using it somewhere near my area? please give me your comment about U-Mobile

At my place, Wireless is better than wired Why? Because TM still has not activated their port (or something) at my housing area

Does the world economy slowdown affect the broadband slowdown too??

guys sorry i cant tell u how much DB it gain as the modem i use is 2nd Gen from Maxi....
as every ppl know our house TV use external antena the bigger the antena it able to improve more DB signal ....
TV antena is call Yagi antena and it also use coaxial cable to connect to TV same way u can connect to your modem or Wifi Router as it can expend the signal as it can cover a lot of dead sport.....

Yagi antenna is directional, we will need to adjust n point to the right angle/direction only can get good signal... I wish i can return my current modem for a newer gen modem...
