Oh.. Broadband
July 16, 2008 – 6:20 pmI have been talking about WiMAX! WiMAX! WiMAX!
This would be my 6th series on WiMAX…
When are we, Malaysians will only enjoy great internet broadband?
Don’t keep us all waiting now… Someone should come up with a better internet broadband already!!
Already we have all the broadband and I personally think that our internet, compared to the ones of our neighbours (no need to name who) are far superior than ours!
It is like David and Goliath and we are the Goliath. Such a great country we have here and with such great resources, we are so lacking of great internet broadband?
Oh come on…
You see, I’ve been waiting for the day some company would come out and say…
“Ah hah! I have the better solution to all of you broadband leeches! Introducing, the true broadband WiMAX!”
Okay… I don’t think we general public has the chance to enjoy T1 yet, but well the best we can ask for now is WiMAX! Tell me if I am wrong.
I have been talking about WiMAX for quite some time now. Read all about it here.
This is something that everyone should be looking forward to. But until today, not many company has given their say that they are going to offer WiMAX like all out. No! Satu pun tiada! Companies like Asiaspace Dotcom, Bizsurf, Packet One Networks and Redtone-CNX Broadband has said to have been licensed to roll out WiMAX, no news!!
Is MCMC keeping something up their sleeves or still negotiating who within the industry is taking what cut or what not? Remember I said once that I was given the task to try out WiMAX? Now, they cut me off already because the technology department person said that my housing area is not suitable for WiMAX trial. Oh well, here it goes. They all (broadband providers) tend to offer something that doesn’t cover every area. For example like if I bring XXX brand of wireless broadband to Klang, definitely won’t work. So, the “potong” right?
Offer some good deal, but my area in Klang don’t work but in Sunway work. Malaysian style… 
WiMAX has such true potential in providing seamless data transfer and it is far more superior than our current no words can describe better than lousy broadband services provided by you know who. 
Oh come on now you broadband providers… give us the REAL DEAL!!!

Do you think that Wimax is the solution? How realiable is it? Remember, is wireless. Cable ones are still better and much more stable.

cy: aiyo.. don lah. I don’t want protes minyak. I want to protes better, faster internet!
jolene: Reliability? It is said that overseas where this WiMAX is being used and tested, the reliability is there. Technology wise, they are more prudent in keeping connectivity. Well, don’t quote me here. I just read from the internet.. ahha

broadband quality in malaysia won’t change or will never improve if TM NET still conquer all the lines and everything. Examples, put bandwidth limit for those wireless broadband users, celcom, maxis, u mobile, izzi bb etc. And there’s no such a thing for Streamyx subscribers, wtfun! then, for those who one unlimited download bandwitdh, they need or only have 1 choice of service, subscribe for Streamyx.
Ok, we have some others alternative choice like Time Broadband, Maxis Broadband, Jaring Broadband and so on,but they all damn expensive service though their quality of service far better than streamyx. As a result of this, TM NET can increase the rate as they want as long it will not reach their competitors rate, BUT their service is suck!
just dreaming that, later there will one company who’ll build their own network and lines and don’t have to share with TM Net. At that time, its the time for TM NET to be challenged.

izzat: I agree that the alternative choice are expensive. That’s the price you have to pay for good broadband. I’m just waiting for the much speculated WiMAX, which I’ve been waiting for more than 1 year now. I can’t wait anymore man… It is like in the hospital waiting for your wife to give birth to your child…
Come on it is better than 3G, and its wireless!
Their price is going to be cheap because of the lower cost of rolling our the facilities..
Let’s wait and see…

i think i heard of wimax… around 2 or 3 years before, and now only they start to providing, but not fully wimax but something like wifi…

Haha

Hmmhhhm.. i relaly hope that wimax would be better than the broadband services we have now. Right now as much as I hate to say it streamyx is the most stable. Sigh… what to do.. Maxis is not that great not unless you are always on the go.

joshuatly: oh come on.. i’m sure the day will come soon… we will sure be here to enjoy more than that in our lifetime. Maybe it will be called T100? The speed is like the F1 cars now. -_-
aronil: Agree. Stable as of now, streamyx. but not up to everyone’s expectation on certain locations. but oh wells.. we need to fight for the liberation of internet in Malaysia! wooott!!

but do remember that WiMax is much faster than other wired or wireless broadband which is normally speed 14Mbps.
