Streamyx still unstable…

I havent been posting lately… it’s mostly because of my unreliable Streamyx connection. I have reactivated my Jaring dail-up, got myself a TM.NET dail-up starter pack and also registered for a time.net dail-up account. @_@ So just I am moving backwards. After some ping testing, I found out that Jaring still have the most reliable infrastructure. I still get lost packets using tmnet dail up… and their DNS server does not respond sometimes.
I have also bought an Aztech 600E ADSL2/2+ modem (technically it should be call a modem/router), and surprisingly, it does increase my bandwidth to what I am suppose to get… (75% of my allocated bandwidth). So guys, it might be time to upgrade your modem. I got mine from Computer War, SS 2 @ RM99.00. It has a built-in router, firewall and stuff… so it is super value for money for those who does not yet have a router. I personally am using a Linksys Wireless-G router, it seems to be compatible after setting the modem to Bridge mode. But unfortunately, I cant seems to access the admin page of my modem if it is connected to my Linksys router. I probably need a firmware update…
Now, all I can do is to wait for the technicians to change my port. :/
