Anyone staying up late here?
i just called their Streamyx CS.

it was an announcement there, about some upgrading interruption in Sabah emm few more location

but then i talk with a guy, he seem like technician not helpdesk.
told me that, since 10th July they are upgrading and line services or something
It will last until 31st July (until next month)
Kedah, Perak were affected.

Just a update guys

Well THAT explains why I'm ALWAYS not connecting to Screamyx servers at 7pm EVERY SINGLE DAY since 10th July....

It's kinda stupid that they're doing such things behind our backs without explaining anything to us.

I've complained to them last thursday and it was fixed the following day...
then came the dreaded saturday where the whole malaysia got cut off from the internet...
sunday, 7pm, disconnection begins yet again.

I called them back on monday to open up my report, some guy who can hardly speak english picks up and does nothing.
IF they could fix my problem before, why cant they do it again?!
During that call, i was put on hold for about 2~3 minutes (probably talking to his supervisor on how to cover up what they're doing)

Today(Tuesday) it happened again. I was really pissed off to the point where the first thing in the morning, I intend to call up tmnut's CS and demand to speak to the person in charge the moment someone picks up my call.

Lucky for them, you came in and cleared all speculations.



PS : They could've AT LEAST posted this month long disruption on their website. BUT no..... wanna save face

technical guys just came to my house. apparently if glen_cct's information is correct, they dont know about the "upgrade" or are just hiding the fact.

They said something about changing my port at their server or something to a better one to fix the 7pm disconnecting problem. Let's see if that actually helps

Here's something I've noticed...

-My internet slowed down (by half) the last few days (512kpbs instead of 1mbps)
-Tmnut speedometer non-functional (offline it seems)

Coincidence? I dont think so... a day before, it was working fine (yea i checked because i felt my bandwidth was choking)

Well i know that TMnut speedometer is BIASED a long time ago. Just getting a second opinion (though it's not that trustworthy).

My first check was speedtest.net which i gotten a 400+kbps download and a 110+kbps upload.


Well dropping to 512kbps shouldnt be that bad as I was using 512 when screamyx first came out. It was definitely not as bad as now. It's as if they reduced the number of international connections a user is able to connect to...

Every site I load is taking a longer time than usual to load
