Half confirmed about HSBB

I always talk about High Speed Broadband(HSBB) project in these days because GoMobile09 EXPO is just held in Malaysia and ministry of Info,Communications and Culture takes advantages of it to announce some good news during the press time.

According to the latest report from Bernama,HSBB will go alive in next June.Currently TM is doing upgrading on exchanges and core network,as well as enhancing on AAG undersea cable system which had completed the construction work 1 month ago.

Why did I say that ‘half confirmed’?Because up to now,I received a lot of different timelines of the project and all came from official sources,that confuses me.Anyway,it should come to service the sooner the better.

It’s true.The polite TM Net technician Nizam came to my house just now and he checked up the line and modem regarding to my problem with playing a portable electrical analyzer.After some complex tests,he called to the DSLAM site(exchange) there asking to change a new port for me.

So we chitchatted and waited the change to be done.He told me that in fact DSLAM can provide 4M speed to me,but because of the old copper lines used,I may only be given the 2M package at this time.However,he still told me that HSBB(High Speed Broadband) project led by TM is really under progress and estimated to be released in June 2009.The fibre optical line will directly be linked in every building with connection boxes and then split out to each house.The Home/SOHO users can subscribe 10Mbps-100Mbps packages and for business users,up to 1Gbps.

I feel excited because it’s never a rumour,it was spoken out from an insider of TM.

How wonderful is!I’ll open wide my eyes and look for that beautiful day.
