Broadband Speed Test (ADSL, Streamyx, TMNet)

Do use TMNet Speedometer anymore, it a lousy bandwidth test site, give a try to SpeedTest.net, it great!!

With SpeedTest.net, you are not limited to Malaysia servers in Cyberjaya only, you even can test your bandwidth with server located in USA and Europe. I had tested my Streamyx broadband speed with Penang server, and surprisingly, my connection speed is almost close to 512kb/s downlink and 256kb/s connection speed!!

Streamyx bandwidth test

That why, you see in above screen capture, I rated Streamyx 4 stars, because it really exceed my expectation!

Again, to get the true performance of Streamyx bandwidth, we should test with Cyberjaya server too. I did it, and the result per show in figure below (it contain link to SpeedTest.net for more detail info):

It still provide competitive bandwidth compare to Penang server connection for my 512kbps Streamyx package.

I further clicked on the stat, wow, PenangFone is the best broadband provider (or ISP) you could find in Penang Malaysia!!! See it yourself from the chart!!

Alternative Gen2 Discussion Forum

I don't think many people willing to pay for the use of a forum on the net. Anyway, the Gen2club.com forum not think so, they limit the access of free members while protected quite a number of forum to paid members only. Honestly, I not support this idea!! By the way, instead of complaint, why not go for altervative. The Autoworld.com.my forum do contain Proton Gen2 dedicated forum. Let all Gen2 owner support the forum at link below:
