Seems like there is quite a number of internet provider now in Malaysia. I am currently using Streamyx 1Mbps package and I am getting approximately 150kbps(+/- 10kb) download speed. Although I am still quite okay with Streamyx, but due to my heavy download usage which might go up to 50 GB per month or even more (depending on Streamyx dl speed). I am thinking of going for another ISP which can provide higher and much more stable connection and dl speed.
I am currently staying in Bandar Puchong Jaya, Puchong (somewhere near the middle of the covered zone of Bandar Puchong Jaya). Is the connection stable enough since I am downloading a lot from MU, RP, MF and so on, and I am also using if for online gaming? Lastly, what is the max dl speed that most of u guys/ gals manage to achieve with AMAX? I hope someone could enlighten me on those issues.

Well, if it is on an interval of 1Mbps download per second. I don't really mind since we can say that you can download close to 1.5 Gb of files for half an hour (considering all those waiting time before you can dl). Well, that is superbly fast since I think there are still no broadband service in Malaysia ever reaching that.
However, gaming will be hell of a problem since the connection will disconnect once per 30 minutes. Kinda make wonder whether I should switch. lol. Thanks for the info.

Seems like Malaysia's WIMAX services are still far below par when compared to other countries. I was furious with streamyx capping the dl to about 150kbps(at best) but it seems to me that wired broadband is still better at this moment. I dunno when will Malaysia improve... even Hong Kong provides a much excellent internet service where I heard that the fees are much cheaper (currency conversion) and there is no capping of download speed.
