which broadband is "the best" and cost effective?

let's say area in PJ(tmn megah)???

 

[devil]

If u do not hv a fix Telekom line and never have intension in getting one such as u r renting house / room ....then would suggest u consider the webbit solution but the starting cost might be expensive but long run if u do not need to subscribe to stupid telekom service then is worth it.

so far anyone using webit service? just wonder the stability and performance loh ...

 

[P_driver]

Yup once add in the telekom phone line rental also an additional 26 bucks to your total bill

 

[e39a]

so if u r using webbit, then u wouldn't be paying tel bill, is that right?

cheers.

 

[simplythebest]

Expensive man the wireless modem RM 499 :o

wait till early next year whole klang valley areas covered, see whether TIME broadband services stable or not at that time.

if i'm not wrong, more users of ADSL does not mean slower connection as DSL technology dedicates the line connection to the hub to you. the slowness you encounter is really due to a lot of visitors at the websites you are going to and not due to the ADSL line. if you feel ADSL speed is like dial-up, then the dial up will be so much slower than their usual speed ...

Can i use my laptop as wireless to communicate with the router purchased from time?
or i have to put in another wireless router to enable my machines within my own lan to access the broadband ?

For streamyx, they provided the modem, I still need to purchased my own wireless router ... so, wonder webbit will change or not ....

Yes, I agreed startup cost is expensive but hessel free and you need not bind yourself to the stupid telekom one year contract and if you decided to cancel the webbit service, you can always sell to someone else, rite ? u r not 100% lost mah .. hehe
