I am addicted to Internet. Did you?
Seriously, without Internet, I really did not know how my IT Engineer’s life will be? Not only my job, for personal life, I also addicted to Internet. Average 4 to 8 hour per days sitting in front of computer surfing Internet.
Where is all my time goes on Internet? Did you ever ask your self before?
My time actually spend for the SPEED of the Internet. Even our biggest Internet Service Provider (ISP) or broadband provider give us a poor Internet surfing speed. People here call them “Slowmyx”, or “Snailmyx” instead of their real name Steamyx. So to other provider, the service are more worst.
So how your ISP give you? What kind of broadband speed they provide?
Now a days most people have Internet, but some of my friend did not know what kind speed their broadband provider provide. To check on your Internet, you can use broadband-expert.co.uk’s broadband speed test, I have speed test mine broadband, is 160Kbps download speed and 140kbps upload speed only. Is kinda slow 🙁
For Malaysian you may be can consider the latest 4mbps service from “Slomyx”, but the location are limited, Penang and Kuala Lumpur available already. For United Kindom’s friend, you can look for broadband-expert.co.uk for great broadband speed offer, base on your budget, choose a good broadband plan.
ooo, the test was quite accurate. This is interesting(^^)
hey, actually malaysia broadband is quite fast speed lah compare wt ireland… Ireland one… really like grandam, omg… u cant even imagize how slow it is…
Without internet, my life is gone also…no blogging, no gaming…
well, internet is indeed very important. I hardly miss a day without internet.
Our internet service here is very inconsistent. At once it was so fast but most of the time, they sucks.
It already consider excellent if their service doesn’t goes down, unfortunately they always do
I am using Wireless broadband Services from Jaring and so far I am quite happy with them in terms of pricing and speed. I have tried running Streamyx at my friends location nearby and I am glad that mine is on Jaring… and I hope Jaring would not be taken over by TM where “M” stands for Monopoly….
Most Malaysian are forced to go with Streamyx anyway, unless you are in Klang Valley, where there are more choices……
Me over in Kedah…. the only choices are a small wireless broadband company and streamyx……… guess which one I have to choose…
lol 160Kbps !!! sometimes I also get that speed for my celcom broadband. Cannot even login to wordpress.

Most people still go to slomyx, no choice, because they are the monopoly…
