They said higher than 10 floor is not suitable because for this moment, All PacketOne's signal antena are not that high enough to support a good signal or performance for the higher buildings. But, they also did mention about in the future, The company will support the signal for much higher buildings, condos and apartments areas.
Ahhh, so that's the explanation of it.

Why i have go to
http://www.p1w1max.com/ for sign up for try from PIKOM PC Fair but still not get any call or respond that they giving me try. It seems they don't let people try. After that, when i call to their customer service center, they said that maybe is my location no coverage. I told them i am at setapak, and then they say that they pick the name as luckily draw omg.... only the chosen one can be a tester....
Is it any way to be tester, my luck not very good. Every time draw i sure lose, so don't need think about tester.
1 good suggestion, luckily draw should be giving freebie? But a testing 2 week only after that need sign 2 years contract?
Besides, they ask me when i subscribe to be tester, i tell them at the PIKOM KLCC Convention Center. They said 3 day they will give respond to the winner of tester, after 3 day if they no contact you will consider loser.
Lastly, i ask them how to encounter this loser situation, they said ask us keep summit the online application….. haiz…..FREE USE 2 WEEK….. SO HARD TO GET IT…..
Well, besides data mining I suppose it's not you're a loser or anything but it's really dumb luck if you get to try the service. For the 2 year thing, I believe it's just a rumour and not a conclusive concrete information of it. So we'll have to wait and see later.

For an average user , nothing. For p2pers , it means heaven and it allows other computers to establish a direct connection with their pc which dramatically increases the speed. For gamers , it enables them to host games such as DOTA (Warcraft III) or your own Counter-Strike Server. For pro users , it allows their pc to act as a SSH Server , web server and a VNC server - which allows them to remote control their home computer. Lots of benefits
ISPs in Malaysia that offers Public IP with the ability to port forward - TM Streamyx , Jaring Wired/Wireless (jaring doesn't block any external port , Time Webbit Wireless Broadband and izzi
I hope you can conduct some tests later. Oh if you have MSN or any IM - I would love to get in touch with you - The reason is mainly to collect data and then write a report and publish it , so that it will be useful for other WiMax customers and other folks alike. I do have a couple of tools but you may have to download cygwin and run it - as most of it are meant for *nix platform. This to gather data on the modem and post more information about it
Its Linux for sure , port 80 in this case refers to apache/web service - that is meant for the web configuration and port 513 in this case is rlogin - remote login which is something like telnet and allows remote login , in other words it allows you to login remotely. But rlogin is rarely used these days as its not secure , I guess it will be used by p1 folks/support team to monitor or to perform upgrades or tweaking in the modem. This GIVES them full control over the modem/connection which is bad
I guess I'll have to stick with my trusty streamyx for now !
True enough without port forwarding the speeds aren't as great. But what about services like BolehVPN? Could those help in terms of P2P?
