No other word, but...

Get over it - Streamyx P2P Throttling!

If you know and realize that, streamyx users now can hardly download stuffs using P2P client since TMnet has throttled our peer-to-peer connection. However, with some tweaks here and there we can still download files using the same or another method. One of it is to encrypt the bittorrent packet header. Somehow, it will not showing tremendous different in speed.

Sometimes, you will get something really out of expectation but remember... it will not last long, because this is TMnet!!!


You will notice that bittorrent download is currently blocked via bandwidth capping by TMnet. As result, we won’t be able to download files easily from international peers using bittorrent unless there are other Malaysian Streamyx users seeding the file.

Now, let’s just forget the suffering that we all hate to have. A company that based in China has created a software named Thunder (迅雷) which have been reported that attracting Google to invest in the company. This bittorent client allows us to download with decent speed without being capped by TMnet.

Today, I accidently ate a frog on my lunch. Damn it! I really thought that was a fish! Until now, I'm still feeling like want to puke. It was so scary.

I decided not to use Azureus today and give Xunlei/Thuder a try. You will not believe in me and I won't believe my eyes either. What a surprise to me that my first use of the software got me a 60kB/s constantly!!!

Words no more... I suggest you to try out and see if Xunlei/Thunder would be able to beat your convesional bittorent clients (Azureus, utorrent, bitcomet, etc.)

Mobile Number Portability (MNP)

Mobile number portability is a service that enables mobile telephone customers to retain their existing mobile telephone numbers when they switch from one service provider to another. A number of countries have introduced mobile number portability in recent years such as Hong Kong, United Kingdom, USA, Europe, Australia, South Korea and Taiwan.

The main benefits of MNP to consumers are the costs savings to the porting customer of not having to change telephone numbers, while at the same time having the freedom to choose the supplier with the best overall value.

New operators can benefit from MNP by increasing the potential market share available to them. MNP increases the likelihood that customers of incumbent operators will be willing to switch to a new entrant. Incumbent operators benefit from MNP by allowing full competition for established mobile customers as well as new customers. All operators benefit from MNP by allowing them to market these service improvements they make to maintain or improve their networks to increase their market share.
