Danesh Manoharan: Streamyx’s new TOS

Posted: May 4th, 2009, 11:54pm BST

Tags: broadband malaysia streamyx tos [edit]
Streamyx got smart and officially fucked it’s customers!!

We can’t complain about slow international access any more as streamyx’s new TOS clearly states that speedy access is only guaranteed for local content access.

Quoted from Streamyx;

Streamyx download and upload speed is guaranteed for local content access only.
TM is not responsible for the low speed of either download or upload of international content access.

MCMC, so how you gonna help? Your minimum requirement for broadband is 80% of the advertised speed.

Danesh Manoharan: My Streamyx is screwed again

Posted: May 14th, 2008, 11:27pm BST

Tags: bandwidthtest broadband downtime Internet slowinternet [edit]
My Streamyx is screwed again. Actually it’s been like that for a month now. The speed is nominal in the mornings but after 8pm the speed drops to 1/4 the normal. My last bandwidth test came up with 104.4 Kbits/download and 290Kbits/upload. Looks like someone’s overselling bandwidth again, you think so? Or could it be a simple port overload?

I reported the case last week and was assigned a case and an engineer. They call me up 1 day later to verify. I said no one showed up, they gave me a number to call. I called and was informed that the engineer should have already attended to me. Further investigation revealed that the engineer never showed up, he excuse was “there were too many students around the exchange box for me to work on it”, literally. That was it, I never heard back.

Today, couple of days later I called Streamyx again. To my surprise the agent said my case was resolved and closed. I said “NO, it’s still da same”. We went on again with the normal chat till she finally logged a new case and assigned a new engineer to the case. Also, I was advice to email some screen shots.

See for yourself,

My mail to streamyx,

case#133####34#
login# !@#@3
contact: 01@-!@#$#%#@

Please look into my issue. Th speed is normal in the mornings but every night the speed drops to a pathetic rate. I’ve included screen shots for your reference. It looks like a load issues, are your junctions overloaded? Please tell me no…..

The engineer assigned to my initial case never showed up but closed my case. Is this how you support your paying clients? I know I have not other provider to turn to but please don’t take advantage of your privilege.

The girl I spoke to earlier was really nice and assisted me well. I hope I will get the same support from your team.

I was also looking to upgrade my line to 4Mbps but they told me “port full” haa haa, I live in the city and there are no ports?

Anyways please fix my issue, I appreciate your quick response.

I just want my promised bandwidth. I am a paying customer, is this too much to ask?

Danesh Manoharan: U Mobile High Speed Mobile Internet

Posted: April 6th, 2008, 7:15pm BST

Tags: broadband Internet malaysia mobileservices tech [edit]
I tend to be slightly skeptical nowadays when the words “high peed” and “mobile” are used within the same sentence. You can’t blame me, adverts all around boast blazing speeds over mobile network but do you ever hear the same feedback from their subscribers? Hardly ever right.

Well, here’s a another new kid on the block U Mobile with the same claims. Hopefully they deliver. Read more about U Mobile on Wikipedia.

They simplified the packages by only offering one package at a low price of RM78 for unlimited access. Another favourable addition would be the cool looking modem seen in the picture below. All other providers are still sticking to the crappy bean design with it’s flimsy plastic finishing.

U Mobile is new so don’t expect superb coverage just yet. For now their reach covers most of Klang Valley. If the penetration rate is good expansion will happen for sure.

Picture taken from KongTachnology blog.

I have been looking into mobile packages recently and the only service provider that appeals to me is Celcom. Their Streamyx + Mobile Broadband combo is the best around. Don’t ya think so?

While the mobile providers battle it out, one thing’s for sure, U Mobile in my book has the best looking website. Light weight flash yet functional. A good first impression always works with products. Visit U Mobile

I’m working late tonight. Been in the office since morning and I desperately need to shower and have some food.

Thought I’ll share this picture with you since it’s the only thing keeping me motivated to work late nowadays. Speed = smile on Danny’s face.

Update: 12:52am

Just crashed my Netgear WGR614 router with the new speed

Streamyx!! This is what happens when you deprive us of bandwidth.

Danesh Manoharan: Malaysian broadband providers

Posted: December 26th, 2007, 7:30am GMT

Tags: broadband malaysia [edit]
If you ever wondered just how many different broadband providers we might have here in Malaysia, then this may help.

1. eBulding - http://www.eb.net.my/
2. Airzed - http://www.airzed.com/
3. Arcnet NTT MSC Sdn Bhd - http://www.arc.net.my/
4. Atlas One Broadband Internet Provider - http://www.atlasone.net/
5. Biz Surf - Broadband Internet services - http://www.bizsurf.com/
6. Celcom - http://www.celcom.net.my/
7. Digi - http://www.digi.com.my
8. Giga Broadband VDSL - http://www.vdslnetwork.com/
9. Gold Information Systems Wireless broadband provider - http://www.gissb.com/
10. iDiGi Internet Services - http://www.idigi.com.my/
11. iZZi - Mobile wireless broadband, iBurst - http://www.izzi.com.my/
12. Jaring - http://www.jaring.my/
13. Maxis Broadband - http://www.maxis.net.my/
14. Metro FON - http://www.metrofon.com.my/
15. NasionCom - http://www.nasioncom.com.my/
16. Penang FON - http://www.penangfon.com/
17. PutraNet - http://www.putra.net.my/
18. Time Net - http://www.time.com.my/
19. Time Broadband - http://timebroadband.time.net.my/
20. TMnet - http://tm.net.my/
21. TMnet Streamyx - http://isp.tm.net.my/streamyx/
22. Webbit - Time Wireless Broadband - http://timebroadband.time.net.my/webbit/
23. ZapZone Wireless Hotspot - http://www.zapzone.com.my/
24. Netlynx by TIME dotCom Berhad - http://www.netlynx.net.my/

My Opinion: MetroFon/PenangFon is the best provider I have ever used here in Malaysia. I was using them during my stay in Penang for more then a year. RM60 for 2mbps up/down. Can’t beat that now can you damn Streamyx!!

If you realize, many of the providers above only offer up to a maximum of 2mbps and the prices are ridicules. Is there a limitation to what providers can give to end users set by the gov?

How to connect to Streamyx with DLink 2640-T wireless router

Posted: June 25th, 2007, 2:46am BST by mypapit

Tags: streamyx dlink broadband Linux Internet [edit]
I found in my website log, apparently somebody trying to find out how to connect to Streamyx broadband using the latest DLink 2640T. Since I own one, I decided to share my settings to enable you to connect to Streamyx.
1. First point your favorite browser to http://192.168.1.1/, enter your username and password (default: admin | admin)
2. Web configuration user interface will be displayed, click WAN
3. Change the VCI value from ‘8′ to ‘0′
4. Enter your Streamyx username and password below
5. Finally go to Tools->System. Click “Save and Reboot” there to save your changes.
Screenshot

Your Dlink wireless router should be able to connect to Streamyx broadband services now.

Posted: June 18th, 2007, 6:17pm BST by mypapit

Tags: ubuntu broadband Internet modem adsl [edit]
This is the most popular question that I received currently from new Ubuntu and Debian users. This is probably because Ubuntu and Debian based operating system usually does not provide an obvious way to connect to the internet through ADSL Broadband Modem.

How to connect to internet through ADSL Broadband Modem
Here’s a quick guide for you to connect to the internet using ADSL broadband modem.
1. From the desktop, go to ‘Application’, then’ Accessories’, then start the ‘Terminal’ application’
2. From the console terminat, type ’sudo pppoeconf’ to start the ADSL configuration application
3. You’ll be presented with a screen prompting your ADSL login name and password
4. Answer all the questions and press OK, the screen will exit, and you should be able to connect to the internet by now
Remember, type “pon dsl-provider” if you want to connect to the internet again after you’ve rebooted or switched off the computer.

My Modem gone up in smoke !

Posted: April 11th, 2007, 1:03pm BST by mypapit

Tags: router modem adsl streamyx broadband [edit]

I’ve a sad news to share with everybody here, my D-Link G604T ADSL modem had gone up in smoke today. I don’t know what caused it, but I suspected long duration of use (24/7) might contribute to its demise.

Now I’m stuck with the spare Kasda ADSL modem, hard to dial out, a bit unreliable but it does its job of keeping me connected to the internet.

I think i need to save some money to buy myself a new modem after this, preferably one that can operate non-stop 24/7. I heard linksys and 3com modem are good but the latter is much harder to find at my place.

Any tips on buying a new ADSL router (preferably wifi capable) ?

Chile has better internet service than Malaysia

Posted: December 30th, 2006, 10:45pm GMT by mypapit

Tags: malaysia chile Internet connections broadband [edit]
This come out during an IRC session with a friend from Malaysia, currently on extended holiday in Chile. I asked him to make a comparison because he subscribed broadband internet connection during his holiday.

Suprisingly he told me that Chile internet connection is far more superior than the one offered in Malaysia (read: Streamyx), mainly because :
- He gets what he pays for, 1Mbps connection for 1Mbps package
- The connection is stable
- Bittorrent isn’t capped
I clearly understand that TM can’t do anything about the slow internet connection resulting from Taiwan earthquake, but the low-quality of Streamyx service has been voiced out a lot of time. You can read 1st hand experiences told from ~~satisfied~~ TM Streamyx customers, [one], [two], [ three ], [ four ], [ five ], [six], and the list goes on, as if the name Streamyx is associated with “bad broadband service”

TM clearly does little about it besides blaming users of P2P software for choking up their bandwidth.

It is odd when a country like Chile can provide a stable internet connection without Bittorrent capping while Malaysia that have Multimedia Super Corridor ( a Sillicon Valley-wannabe ) can’t do the same.

Grrr TMNet suspended my Streamyx account!

Posted: August 17th, 2006, 1:44pm BST

Tags: tmnet streamyx Internet broadband pissed [edit]

I’m so pissed because TMnet suspended my account because I was behind my bill. It’s not like I want to pay, but I was busy doing other work that I forgot to pay the bills, besides how can I remember to pay the bills if they fail to deliver them?

Before this I used to receive printed bills everynow and then delivered by mail, and I usually pays up my bills on time, but now TMNet seems not to send Streamyx Broadband bills anymore. I’m bit busy and distracted by my work, making me forgot to pay my bills without the reminder.

What’s worse is, I can’t even log in to tmbill website to see how much that I owe TMnet, they seems to block your streamyx account and your access to online billing system too! Give me a break, at least make the online billing system bit more friendly instead of IE6 only page.

Note to self :

I won’t wait for my streamyx bill anymore, I’ll check my internet bill every 15th day of the month. Damn you TMnet, I lost my productivity hours due to suspension and having to go to their office to pay up my bills (btw, I read that paying Streamyx bills through Maybank2u isn’t safe).
