Slow Streamyx Broadband Service
Well I am using Maxis broadband service in my hostel but every weekend I will go back to my hometown which is a small kampung which cannot support any internet service provider but Streamyx. Two days of living without Maxis Broadband means I have to suffer with two days of snail speed service by Streamyx. OMG sometimes I even have to wait for a few seconds before Google home page can be successfully loaded……
So, how slow is the Streamyx service in your place?
That’s what happen when there is only one major ISP…. sigh…..
The speed is killing me softly.
my streamyx speed in gelugor penang is amazing 3.4Kbps!!!!
i subscribe to 1Mbps.
Steamyx boleh ke?
Talk about MSC when they can’t even provide “turtle” speed connections. Snailx would be a better brand name for them. If one were to do a comparison in terms of connection speed with the other ISPs in the world, guess who would you think will come up tops?
Streamyx suck!!!
Try test your speed at speedtest.net, you will know how slow streamyx is.
[...] who is thinking of getting an alternative broadband in Malaysia. Previously I have expressed my dissatisfaction on their services, & since then write few blog posts about the other broadbands available in [...]
hi,
It seems many people would say streamyx connection is suck and other ….firstly not all place would use fiber optics but still using the old wire of copper. Which is copper area always make a sense of problem for than fiber optics………..Need upgrade optics for your area it better on you to ask CEO Tm….that is the best……
Yo.
Its unbelievable. I am from Europe. I live now already 8 months in KL. I have streamyx for this 88 + these imazing 40 RM 4 something I don’t use – telephone. 120RM fur 0service. Damn! Really bad. I can get for 80RM 4Mbps back there…sometimes even better. Damn…you cursed over here.
Why I found this page is, I couldn’t stand any more this weekend slowlyness on weekends. I pay f… crazy money for 4kb speed instead of 100kb. Sucks. I googled “why is streamyx slow on weekend”.
good luck and wish a better net future..

What is Broadband? (http://www.broadband.co.uk/guide.jsp)
Connection speeds and download limits (http://www.broadband.co.uk/guide.jsp?section=3)
Is telephone cable the same as road highways?
1. Roads during peak period will have traffic jams.
2. However, telephone cables are similar to TNB cables.
3. One electric cable from TNB is connected to a row of terrace houses.
4. Bear in mind the usage of electricity is 24 hours per day in every house. Peak usage is during the night with TVs, airconds etc. Do you experience low voltage? Power surge perhaps.
5. Is broadband usage 24 hours? Is every house using broadband?
Therefore,
1. I urge everyone to check whether you are getting the download speed that you subscribed from streamyx. For your info, you should get at least 90%.
2. Please click this link to see how much speed you get. Click a few times to confirm. (http://promos.mcafee.com/speedometer/test_0150.asp)
3. If you are getting below 50%, please do a print screen.
4. To do a print screen, put your cursor at the down right hand corner (put the cursor at the time) to get the date and day appear. Once appear, press together the keyboard buttons ctrl and prt sc.
5. Next click start, All Programs, Accessories, Paint
6. Press keyboard buttons ctrl and v
7. Then File, Save As (put a name) Save into your desktop
8. Send it as attachment to , ,
9. They need your support and evidence to bring up to TM
10. Please support for everyone benefit
My streamyx ‘broadband’ connection is so effing slow that even loading the speed test page takes a while.
If they make us share bandwidth with more people they should split the cost as well!!!
I am very dissapointed with the service. I’d say the overall service provided by TM is only worth RM 10 or less per month. Stop robbing us off you corporate bully!
These strmyx bastards are a bunch of fucking liers
For the last 10 days its taken 10 to 15 in to log onto the lan ,
When i rand the dum monkeys working there ,and went through the usual bullshit of unplug and replug bla bla bla, check bios for connection , he told me there “no connection”
What a fucking genius .
he then went on to tell me its probably my splitter.
Well that was total bushit ,
I went to a mates shop and borrowed anew splitter and the same thing ,
On the way back I saw 2 of the streamyx techies standing next to a service box , both doors open , They had removed 1 frame of wiring and one of them was actually standing there scratching his head as if to say , “NOW WHAT” (i wish I had my camera)
so they dont know shit about fone lines or IT or just about anything ,
Heres the real blurb
about 3 weeks ago , my mate told me that the entire staff of the fone company where his wife works had to stay 24 hours because of some extremely urgent upgrade crap,
Well there isnt an upgrade , their entire system crashed,
If you dialled the operator about 3 wks ago you would know because a voice came from a US fone company.
(he turned up to see her at 9pm and they were having what appeared to be a huge kings banquet)
Thats why the net takes so fucking long to connect , WE ARE DIALLING TO THE US.
THEY HAD TO FLY 5 TECHIES IN FROM CANADA TO TRY TO FIX THE FUCKUPS.
To top it off , the GOV has bit by bit been secretly sacking non malay workers from , telcos banks , oilpalm plantations , railways , and gov sector , and replacing them with malays .
Thats more than likely what has happened at streamyx.and thats why the whole system has turned to shit..
Recently at a maybank i saw 3 of the 6 atm machines open and a malay techie stuffing around with them .
That was thursday,
I went back the next tuesday and the same story . The end of the week , same again .
when are the people here going to get it through their heads that if you want to actually BE a techie , they have to do more than go to lim kok wing and play mario brothers for 3 years.
they will have to actually LEARN.
And they are going to have to employ people on merit , not the fact that they are malay or a cousin or brothers son ., which is what has been going on for way too long here..
This is just the begining of the downfall of the country .
employ idiots and you will pay dearly .
