Redesign Malaysia is an initiative to improve Malaysia's broadband internet penetration, quality and reliability.We aim to achieve this through the compilation of relevant news articles, allowing users to have a voice, enlightening consumers on the options that are available, providing comparative statistics on ISPs, as well as the production of special features and commentary.


It is designed to be a community effort, to utilize information and feedback from broadband users and potential customers across Malaysia. We also aim to gain cooperation from the various broadband players in Malaysia, as well as support from government agencies and regulators.


Currently, we are focused on the Klang Valley, however in time we aim to expand this initiative nationwide. Let's all collaborate - to make fast, cheap and efficient broadband available throughout Malaysia.

How Much Of Your Streamyx Connection Do You Use Per Month?

News Articles RedesignMalaysia.com TM Net Streamyx P2P

I’ve added a new poll to the site (right hand corner) - Streamyx Users - How many gigabytes of data do you use per month?

TMNet has recently starting to put the amount of data you used per month in its monthly bill (in Megabytes (MB). 1024 MB = 1 Gigabyte (GB)). You can read more at the Lowyat forums.

Apparently, 87% of you visitors to this site use TM Net Streamyx (995 votes). It’ll be great if you could vote on this new poll - I’m coming up with some calculations and observations on TM Net’s network capacity and subscriber data usage. You can see how this might be useful to lobby for better service.

Quick note: To all the people reaching this site searching for terms like “tmnet”, “throttling”, “p2p”, “bittorrent”, “blocked”, “streamyx blocks bittorrent”, and various other permutations - yes, it is apparent that P2P is being throttled and blocked by TM Net currently. Some hints: There are some ways around it, but you will still get very very low speed. And yes, you will get better results using local trackers.
Also, some users are telling me they have difficulty accessing the iTunes music store. Are you Skype and Steam users affected too? More news soon.

I had problems with Skype over the weekend. I have skype out and over the weekend it wouldn’t even connect to the calls I was trying to make. Haven’t tried skype to skype but will try it tonight and see. It is appalling what TMnet is doing. I wouldn’t use a Porsche in an analogy of streamyx but to put it in the malaysian context, it is like forcing us buy and pay (cuz no other option) for a Proton Wira with all the bells and whistle but actually only get a push bike.

I heard from someone that working in exchange room, they want to charge customer that using over bandwidth. But i dont know true or not. And if customer using high bandwidth they will make low bandwidth for that customer. To support other customer that using low bandwidth.
