ShawO: I went to the site as well as the Telekom M'sia but I am told that my area is too far away from the cables. Not that I am living in some ulu area but...  It's just .39 m difference. Why can't I have broadband??? (

Telekom's a load of hocus pocus...just check out the editorials on most daily newspapers.....been seeing complaints after complaints on the non delivery of streamyx after order has been made...and the worst is that the folks workin in there just dun seem to bother...calls get bounced from 1 dept to the other.....it's a bloody shame!!!
i know coz my company applied for it a month plus back and till now, no news.....even after calling them weekly plus they couldn't say when it can be done or ready for use.....
to top it off, my office's located smack in the center of the golden triangle.......their application should include a disclaimer saying " PROCESSING OF APPLICATION IS HIGHLY DEPENDANT ON LOCATION AND APPLICANT'S LUCK" or "MOST LOCATIONS NOT SUPPORTED BUT DO TRY FOR LUCK'S SAKE"

Know what?TM Touch sucks,looking at its highly technological advertisement on the TV makes me puke!
I was barred again for my registered TM Touch line for the 3rd time
Sheesh...i called them and asked why they barred me!They replied i did not clear my payment for last month's usage
I was so mad as i send them the payment well before the deadline to the address given in the bill
After like 1 hour of fiddling with the operators there...know what they replied? 'Oh,sorry,it is our mistake ,the payment was left behind in the Headquarters and hence they some of our registered users are thought of not paying up the bill....we will activate your line straight away!!'
Wat is this excuse man! For the 3rd time in 6 months! Both the 1st and 2nd time,i hadnt argue with them over this matter as i think ppl do make mistakes!
Now i know registering to TM Touch is really a BIG MISTAKE!
I'm turning off to Maxis now and i just registered today!yea!

Just bought a R600 exactly a week ago - upgrade from Trium Mars. Just love the look and couldn't really afford T68i. It was okay at first, needed to adjust to it. Anyway, by the third day it was restarting itself a couple of times a day! It also makes this beeping sound (apparently searching for signal). Today was the last straw! I noticed that I was receiving SMS from non-regular people (not from my phonebook). When I checked, my whole phonebook has been totally WIPED-OUT! Any idea where I could get fixed (apparently it's software related). Don't want to go thru the shop, will take too much time. It comes with a Southall warranty. Btw, I'm in Penang. |

Shawo: Nope... no need to apologize at all. Just that I quite disappointed that this broadband thingy isnt really BROAD-band.
shithappens: I totally agree with u on the disclaimer part. They make that streamyx sounds sooo promising... Then when I went there, they just told me bluntly (in Malay): Oops! Ur location is not within our broadband area. It's .39m further up.
Is broadband new in M'sia? I live in JB but I'm a S'porean so I dunno this...
Hmm... why am I talking/asking for advise on braodband when it's an ESTO forum  |

Does Jaring provides broadband? I am using a Jaring dial-up in my house in JB. But I really, really think that they need the stupid cables from Telekom right? *sigh* But what I dun get is that even with braodband, still need to use a phone line... in SG, when one is using internet via broadband, no need to use phoneline... *blur* Hmm...  |

finefine...
man this is gonna be a hell of a long post!!!
firstly, jaring does not provide adsl and nope it's more complicated than that.
you see, adsl works using normal phone lines but it uses a higher frequency than normal phone calls so it does not interfere with your voice/fax/data calls pretty much like the way gprs is independent and does not interfere with your voice calls and smses.
for the adsl system to work, the internet service provider needs to negotiate with the telco provider in order to get a space for them to put a server at the area's switching station (i'm not too sure what they call it) and since tmnet is owned by telekom, its a sinch for them to do that. now you know why jaring does not provide adsl?
and if im not mistaken the switching station needs to be located less than 2km from your internet access point. not that it cant be further but line conditions, distance and material adversely affects the connection speed. thats why you see all those disclaimers and gibberish on thier site. its just that they dont want a customer banging on their helpdesk claming his download speeds are too slow and blablabla...
fyi: tmnet is not the only adsl provider in this country, afaik maxis and time offer adsl services too and i heard at a way lower price and much faster connection speeds. the only catch is that your area's telco provider must be maxis or time too.
im currently trying my luck on a maxis adsl subscription since the area where i am now is using maxis fixed lines (yay!) and i plan to move out of this stinking apartment with average connection speeds of 1kbps!
*sigh*
talk about pathethic!
anyways... hope i enlightened you guys a bit! |

im a new user in this forum. this is a great forum u know. but let me get this straight:
does anyone INTERESTED of buying a BRAND NEW Sony Ericsson T300 in original box, with 1-year warranty(the most important i think), all accessories(charger, handsfree, manual etc.) + the MCA-25 plug-in communicam for a good(or maybe GREAT!) price? this is no joke! i am serious on this offer. the price is still negotiable. just asking whether anyone is interested in this offer.
thats all.
