Never trust TM speedometer.
I have to advice you that the
218 IP is nothing better than the others and you should stick with your normal ranges for the time being. Although I'm not a gamer, I know that gamers need consistence, low ping times with no packet loss. This IP has no good charateristics at all. Also, this IP has been going downhill since it was given to 4Mbps users, u can check at 4Mbps users thread here :
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/458185/+1400I did not ask for the IP, although i was wishing for it. I was given a call from Mr.Shamshul?(sorry, i didn't not get exact spelling) of TM today saying that they have done something to my account and require me to disconnect and reconnect again (in regard to my complaint) and that they will be monitoring performance on their side and try to make improvements to their service. I did so and found out the new IP range I'm locked into. It's even worse than 124.82 in my area (Kota Damansara) because it has very high packet loss even to LOCAL routes which 124 range did not have.

I have complained to these departments and a few ministers:

But even their "Premium ip" is fouled up! I will test this IP for a few days, if there is no improvement i will send emails and call those departments again to report on the slow LOCAL connection and also on behalf of all the users in the "Premium IP".
By the way "pillowman" or others here how is the packet loss on the normal ranges now?
So, you made complaints to some departments. Would you mind to post their reply here, if any?
