One and a half year ago, my first tried to apply for broad­band line was end up with dis­ap­point­ment because my areas is out of range.

This year how­ever, I learn that the telco can actu­ally put you on a wait­ing list and they can do some­thing about it should you really inter­ested to have the ser­vice. I basi­cally waited for more than one month for this broad­band con­nec­tion. Finally, they have fix me a 512K connection.

Thanks to Peter for mak­ing it hap­pen. Any one of you from Kuch­ing, Sarawak inter­ested to have broad­band please do let me know I can give you this guy phone num­ber so you can get him to help you with your broad­band needs.

My streamyx pack­age (charge to phone bill)
RM66 per month
No modem (I ask Peter to fix for me so he charge me RM120, well for the ser­vice he gave)
Acti­va­tion RM75 (charge to phone bill)

I don’t have much com­plain for streamyx for the moment but we have oth­ers who were really dis­ap­pointed with the TM ser­vice. Check out Streamyx­Suck and ahyap.com for the fume. Redesign­malaysia has all the update you may need. How­ever, this doesn’t me that I am 100% happy with the service.

Since Cel­com and TM are all the same, I am not happy with Cel­com 3G ser­vice too. I was using Cel­com 3G for few month and I was really dis­ap­pointed at time that the line was not sta­ble and every min­utes or so I have to do man­ual search for 3G con­nec­tion. With the unsta­ble con­nec­tion I have to pay RM99 per month. It’s doesn’t mat­ter if my areas didn’t have the strong sig­nal, they charge me same every month anyway.

So my streamyx was just a bet­ter deal at RM66 than Cel­com 3G and I can down­load file from Nvidia at about 50 – 70kbps was just okay. Decent per­for­mance and hope­fully it stay that way for long.

I’m wait­ing for WiMax to came out next year, I hope the 2 small com­pany which approved by the gov­ern­ment to give a bet­ter inter­net ser­vice does live up to the expec­ta­tion and standard.
