Is This Broadband?
I just got broadband installed. Not much, but atleast it’ll keep me connected. Not accustomed to high speed DSL, Indonesian Telkom “Speedy” only offers a mere 384kbps connection for personal use. Aside from very expensive monthly fee, (compared to other countries, especially developed ones) Speedy has its own limitations. The package they offer is time based and bandwidth based. Apparently, unlimited is only available for business purposes (not sure), and it’s damn expensive.
All this makes me think that TM’s (Telekom Malaysia) Streamyx isn’t really THAT bad after all. I mean, I was cruising 1Mbps then, almost 4 times what I’m getting here - and with a cheaper fee too. So, Malaysians think again before cursing streamyx. We can’t always get the bandwidth they promised. Although I gotta say Streamyx got some really bad customer service.
