AireGard

Anyone have any experience to share when it comes to this?

Thanks in advance

UniFi IPTV Problem

tantung — Mon, 13 May 2013 14:36:16 +0800

Any experts know what's the issue with my HyppTV based on the picture below?

[attachmentid=3436075]

This happened a few times already. One of those times, I called TM and when the technician came, everything is ok. Then the rest of the times, I just turn it off for a few days and it's ok.

If I leave the STB on in this state, I will lose internet connection in 5 mins. If I reset everything and turn off my STB, my internet is back. I turn on STB, same noise signal, and I lose internet again.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Theft / robbery in apartment unit

tantung — Sat, 24 Mar 2012 11:51:08 +0800

My apartment unit was broken into late last year. The JMB has a "tidak apa" attitude and until now there hasn't been any steps taken to ensure that the security has been beefed up. As I don't have theft insurance on my unit, I heard that one can file an insurance claim for their losses against the JMB's insurance under their Professional Negligence Insurance/Protection.

Does anyone have any knowledge on this? Or if anyone has done one before?

Help and advise is much appreciated.

Thanks.

How Streamyx Agents abuse the system

tantung — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 17:53:11 +0800

Here's an account on my application for Streamyx at my home.

I first went to a TM Point centre to register for Streamyx. I chossed for them send me the Streamyx In A Box as I'm technically knowledgeable to install it on my own.

While waiting for it to arrive, I received a few calls from a Streamyx Agent saying that they are coming to install it. I rejected them as I'm already waiting for the Streamyx In A Box to arrive, and I don't believe in paying for something I can do on my own.

The Streamyx In A Box didn't arrive until 3 weeks later.

When I put everything together and can't connect, I called TM customer support and was told that my account has been cancelled. That's the only information they have and to find out more I had to go to a TM Point Centre. Which I what I did.

And guess what I found out.

The Streamyx registration at the TM Point centre was incomplete. It was aborted midway.
The registration was then done by Degree Software Associates (a Streamyx Agent) a week later, and it was tagged as "installation needed".
Then they called me (a few times) telling me that they are here to install Streamyx.
I rejected them everytime saying that I'm waiting for "Streamyx In A Box" to arrive.
Guess what they did after a week of rejected calls... They CANCELLED my account!
Then they reopened another account using my address and details, changed my chosen username, and tagged "send Streamyx In A Box".

And that's why I can't connect! Worse things could happen... I could have registered MY chosen username in other communications. And imagine the trouble I had to endure, just so Degree Software Associates can profit a few dollars.

So I asked the Duty Manager at TM Point if there's a complain department I can address this to. His response is that this is very common, and I should make a police report on this.

And that's what I'm gonna do...

Using 3G on a normal Wireless-G Broadband Router

tantung — Thu, 24 Jan 2008 19:45:14 +0800

Here's the story.

I have a Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router.
I have a 3G/HSDPA mobile line subscription.
I want to be able to use my 3G/HSDPA (to act as an Internet gateway) to connect to the wireless router so I can surf the Internet via 3G/HSDPA instead of the DSL modem.

Is there a device that I can plug my simcard into then plug it into the router so I can share the connection with other devices via WiFi? (Apart from buying a brand new 3G/HSDPA Wireless Router)

Any advise is much appreciated.

Thanks.
