UPGRADE TO STREAMYX COMBO WIFI NOW!
Bought a new Acer Aspire 4736G notebook loaded with Windows 7 Home Premium early this year.
Wanted to buy a Lenovo but it seems like Lenovo came up with Windows Vista upgraded to Windows 7. I heard a lot of people complaining during upgrading Windows Vista to Windows 7. Most of them had no problem making a clean installation to Windows 7 but not upgrading. Because Lenovo not competitive enough in pricing and specification, so I end up with Acer, cheap and better specifications.
Today's blog is not about notebook, who is better or etc. It is more on streamyx. I had been using streamyx for more than 4 years. I started using it since 2001 till 2003(while studying) and later in 2007 until now (working). What happened between year 2004-2006(menopause or mid-life crisis?)? Well I am working in east of Peninsular of Malaysia. It is quite remote and I depend only on cyber cafe(you will not like a remote cyber cafe). Dirty and snail internet connection. So I gave up on internet and concentrate more on work. I do miss internet so much that I lost touch on how to surf the net and started all over again in year 2007. Get into blogging in 2008 until now I found this is the platform to share information with you.
Towards the end of 2007, I had subscribed Streamyx 1.0Mps package for RM 77 for 2 years in additional payment of RM 26 for telephone rental. After the 2 years contract I had to pay for RM 88 plus RM 26. The monthly sum of payment to TM = RM 114. No reminder from TM to customers that their contract is about to end. So I end up paying more than I expected. If TM wanted to retain their existing customers, TM should come up with special deals and not only for new unsubscribe customers out there. So I look over 'Super Upgrade Deals for Combo or Standard Packages' and 'Combo Package'. All I want is to retain my existing package by paying less(I feel that Malaysians can get better deals and package for this not up to par internet connections) . I cannot get Super Duper Deals from 'Super Upgrade Deals' so I have to give it a try with 'Combo Package'.
With my existing contract RM 88(with modem),
I had changed to Combo package plus Free WiFi modem without any extra charges and I only had to pay for RM 110 monthly compare to RM 114.
With a few clicks, WiFi modem are ready to be used.
This modem's installation kit is compatible only on Windows XP and not Windows 7. Steps for installation :
