ADSL – StreamyX Noise Ratio/SNR Numbers & Line Attenuation – What Do They Mean?

It’s good to get to know your modem/router whichever ISP you are using, log in to the control panel and explore what kind of data it can give you. You can most likely access your admin page here: https://192.168.1.1 or https://192.168.2.1 If that doesn’t work, or you don’t know the login/password please RTFM or JFGI. […]

Streamyx is Down Again

Well my Streamyx is down again, I have to say it’s been quite some time since I’ve had any problems with it. It’s been relatively stable and reasonably fast for quite some time. After I got back from CNY it was off though, the DSL is syncing but the PPoE connection just isn’t happening, not […]

Streamyx Sucks AGAIN

AHGRH!H!H! Meant to post some more pics over the weekend, got lots to do…but Streamyx was down since 11am Saturday morning. Until now. I called them twice, apparently they are having some major nationwide outage…I wonder what happened I really do. There’s nothing on the Streamyx site about this either, it’s out of date. Can’t […]

StreamyX Goes From Bad to Worse..

Unsuprising, look at this, looks like the International link has been replaced by a single 56k dialup line.. Restarted the connection, even got onto a different IP block..still the same urgh. Broadband or narrowband? The answer seems obvious. The only thing that’s transparent about TMnut is their blatant disregard for quality of service and the […]

Streamyx – We Pay for THIS?! Is it Broadband or Narrowband?

Still the lack of quality of service surprises me with Streamyx. I think I’ll just call it Streamyx Shitband. They still keep selling it, still keep advertising it, still keep pushing it…but their infrastructure can’t even support the current userbase. At peak times it goes to shit, if I want decent latency (decent in terms […]

TMnet StreamyX Intermittent Service..

I’ve heard a lot of people complaining lately about Stimx being intermittent lately and very slow.. I’ve also experienced the same problem, sometimes can’t access any US sites and when I can it’s very slow.. For example even now, when it’s up latency is horrendous.. I just found out why, hopefully things should be better […]

Broadband Download Rates – MB, GB, Kbps Huh?

It’s always tough to calculate between line speed and download speed without busting out the calculator, yah you can estimate roughly but it’s not really accurate. Generally you can say the download speed will be 100 times (in KB/s) the line speed (in MB) so a 1MB line like Streamyx should give you approximately a […]

The Unifi Installation – My Experience

One of the (many) reasons I’ve been excited about moving into the new place is because…it has Unifi! Thankfully my area has had it for quite some time. We had the internal wiring done way back so we could do the skimming and painting safe in the knowledge that we wouldn’t be disrupted again by […]

Random Post #10 – Hamsters, Sepang, Village Park Nasi Lemak & The Nokia N8

Phew things been a bit hectic lately plus Streamyx is totally dead at home, suspect it’s the cable from the phone faceplate to the appt distribution point that is dead..cos the TM guy came and plugged in directly to the DB and the phone worked. Not under the remit of TM to fix it and […]
