As I was considered working right now (even if I am only a trainee), I have to let go one of my life-long hobby that is computer games. Not for long though, just for awhile until I have a real job. Contemplating this situation, I realized that I need an internet line before I got sucked into a realm called boredom. And I need it quickly.
I started my journey to dig and entrench myself into the world of ISP. Hrm, I heard about StreamyX long before and I guess, this is where I should be heading. But no, unfortunately, the stumbling block appeared as I found out that my new place doesn’t have fixed line installed. RM500+/- for installation, according to one of StreamyX agent was enough to stray me away from Telekom.
Then I realized that my only choice is wireless internet line. My first thought is, well, I’m doom. I remembered back then when I read an advertisement about Celcom wireless broadband and its cost more than RM2000. Sighed.
Towards the end of my boredom, I stumbled upon something called Maxis broadband. Is it good? Well, seeing this advert:
I could only think reasons why I should subscribe for it.
Now, I am one happy Maxis customer with a lot of complaints. Seriously, on the darker side, I was hoping our government to force Maxis being more sincere with their broadband service. They block and block ports like I’m paying for surfing only. While on the other side, I’m glad there is Maxis broadband to stick with as it was the most affordable (considering I’m getting a RM500 allowance per month) wireless broadband around. Maybe after getting a more appropriate pay, I won’t be so happy anymore.
