[QUOTE="Stanley^Carter, post: 1703504, member: 3833"] Guys, I've been observing the difference in performance between West Malaysia and East Malaysia, and what I've found out is... by using the same package (1mb RM88), Streamyx user from West Malaysia actually has a much higher performance compared to users from the East. Here's the catch, ANY of us, either from West or the East, if we are to perform the test using TMNUT's bandwidth test, ALL of us get the SAME results, somewhere between 700~900kb/s download. BUT!! If we are to perform the test from an alternative website, somewhere outside of Malaysia, like [url]www.buytelco.net/speedtest.asp[/url] .... the difference is pretty ridiculous, heres why: West Malaysia: I got 4-5 friends based in KL, I requested them to perform the test on the buytelco website, the result they get from downloading is above 800kb/s, sometimes around 700kb/s or so. East Malaysia: 3-4 in Sibu including myself, one from Kuching and another one from Sabah, did the same test on the same website, and we're getting download speed of NOT MORE THAN 100kb/s. yeah, we get the same "high speed" results in TMNUT, but I always doubted that bandwidth test is pointless, the buytelco website is JUST one of many examples to prove this DIFFERENCE in performance, you can try other websites which are posted by some of the forumers in this thread. I've been in KL for 2 years, and I was sharing the 1mb connection with 6 of my friends, the speed I get is a bit slower than usual but thats normal. Funny thing is, after I came back to Sibu around April, I immediately applied for another 1mb ADSL for my own personal use, that time I thought to myself "f*ck ya, 1mb all for me!" but the fact is that I'm actually experiencing a lot slower speed compared to the time when I was in KL, and sharing the line with 6 other housemates, I just... DON'T... UNDERSTAND!!!! It's been more than 4 months, I've been calling Streamyx... complaining, making reports and etc... it has NEVER been solved, I've also tried to ask them for an EXPLANATION. All I wanted to know IS WHY is there such a big difference in performance between the East and the West? Everytime I asked this question, they'd say there should NOT be any difference, if that's the case, well fuck that cause I have plenty of proof that I don't GET WHAT I PAID FOR!!! I tried all sort of stuff already, replacing cables, flush dns, restarting modem, restarting pc, even changed my modem... I get extremely furious everytime the Streamyx helpline asked me to perform the troubleshooting procedure... cibai pointless I'd say. Do remember I only tested this with few of my friends, not more than 10 from East Malaysia, and same at West Malaysia... the problem doesn't come from just me alone, it goes the same with all my friends... so I'm just wondering if any of you out there that are actually AWARE of this problem?
