rm99*/month - USB modem, up to 1Mbps

-->chooncc, So expensive? You don't have a proper knowledge of Wimax yet!

The fact is i gotta let you know that Streamyx RM88 or Combo RM110 cannot even get 1Mbps connection speed actually. You know how fast is the speed for 1Mbps streamyx? Ans: Probably 60, 70 to 80 kb/s only. This one can download more than 110 kb/s. If you don't believe, you can try them on Pc fair, but i am not sure whether Amax having a booth there or not this coming event on december 2008?
This Multi-User modem 1.5Mbps vs Streamyx 2Mbps, about the same price, but i think Wimax still win! Some people have experienced that even though they have 2Mbps. Their download speed is only 110 kb/s maximum or even lesser than 100kb/s. However, this 1,5Mbps can go up to 210kb/s <<< i got this speed during Broadband fair, testing using Rapidshare & Megaupload. Youtube super fast download, no need loading! What about streamyx?

hahaha, no prove yet at the moment If i can get a  print screen of Camera Shoot. I will post it here!

Well, Do you felt cheated by TM-NET?

Streamyx very clever to con people. All their package is only their marketing strategy, and don't really provide good service at all

It is definately good to create a strong competition among the internet service provider! So that consumer like us will benefit. Let's put TM net down, hahahaha!

Ok leelc99, the fact is many of us not getting 1Mbps anymore or actually I can say no getting 1Mbps at all, using speedtest is not so accurate. You can browse through the Lowyat forum and you can see many complaints and the true colours streamyx. DDL of 113kbps is consider slow! Or do you mean 113kb/s???

The RM99 Amax USB modem can go up to 1.1mbps ( 1100kbps ) or 1.2mbps ( 1200kbps ), download speed I tried before can reach up to 120kb/s ++. And don't forget! Wimax is more portable! You can bring out here and there! In the future, trust me, all Malaysian will using Wimax technology for wireless connection! Even Mobile Phone company planning to replace Wimax technology over 3G technology. Nokia, Samsung, Motorola have launched a WiMax Mobile Phone in oversea countries, but not in Malaysia yet only! In other words, Wimax is way far better than 3G and the stupid telephone line (do you know the big limitation of telephone line???)
Some people have an advantage in 1mbps because they bribe TM to increase the speed for them. Especially I remembered I read one thread in Lowyat forum. Someone said he bribe TM to get good speed. Ya, so what he get good speed? Maybe the people around his area will suffer only a little! Secondly, could be possible because you are using Streamyx Business package 1Mbps which costed RM148 is it? But many real life people also complaint that Streamyx SOHO 1Mbps is slow for them.

Actually for those business people who signed up for Streamyx Business package 1Mbps ( SOHO ), I would actually suggest them to take the Amax Rm138  Multi-User modem 1.5Mbps or the P1 RM99 1.2mbps / RM229 2.4mbps. Firstly, it is because the price is more reasonable. Secondly, better than streamyx lah the connection, streamyx so suck!!! However, maybe some people may argue and said depends on what type of business <<< Ok, in this point view, still can be debate!

Hahaha, you know how expensive for Streamyx business package!
1.0 Mbps = RM148
2.0 Mbps = RM 318 <<<< Too much lah!!!

I don't mind whether you prefer P1 more than Amax. To me, they might be the same only lah! But, I will be White mouse ( in chinese term ), go to Pc fair and really test out both P1 and Amax for real Comparison. As I also want to see which company provides better service & better connection! I will also try to snap some photo and post in the Lowyat forum to acknowledge everyone about wimax!

Be it P1 or Wimax ... they should have more stability than the streamyx ..

I read an advertisement in the newspaper today (singapore)
