I may not be a smoker but I think I know how it feels to be going through a cold turkey phase. Yup, I'm addicted to high speed broadband.
I used to be proud of my Maxis Broadband connection which gave me the ability to download stuff at the speed of sound... okay, not exactly that fast but at a 'decent' speed of approx. 200 KBps. Sadly, those days are far and few between now.
The DL speed for the past two weeks has been agonizingly SLOW, crawling at a pathetic rate of 7-8 KBps only. I tried calling Maxis about it but sadly they can't seem to do much about it. And here I am, paying RM99 for such services. Sad, really sad.
Any chance of jumping to the other side(s)? Not likely. I tried P1 Wimax for 10 days; not exactly what it was touted to be. Cousin Mark said Izzi; easy for him to say, not my cup of tea though. My colleague Rafi said Digi; yes, I'm a loyal Digi phone user but too bad the broadband coverage has been slow to spread out. Let's not even get started on Streamyx, if you know what I mean.
So where does that leave me with? Nowhere for now, just gotta pray that Maxis buck up soon or I'm seriously gonna start looking elsewhere.
