After a warning from one of the regular posters at WebMasterMalaysia<\/a>, I checked the Terms and Conditions for my Streamyx<\/a> service. There’s no prohibition of home servers in there, so that’s a relief. The search for increased upstream bandwidth goes on though.<\/p>\n

I phoned 1-300-88-9515 today, and Edward checked with his supervisor and was told they had no objection at all to SDSL service (only sold as Business Broadband<\/a>) to a residential address. They recommend a visit to my local TM Point in Port Dickson though, so the practicalities of getting the new line installed might be a totally different matter.<\/p>\n

TM Point says they have to ask a technician, which seems reasonable. But they also said a house near Glory Beach enquired and were told ‘no’. No seems a bit harsh for something you pay for – surely it should just cost more? We’ll have to wait and see. If there’s anybody out there who has a cunning plan for upstream bandwidth above 1Mbit\/s in West Coast Malaysia, I’m all ears! It’s unlikely there’ll be any competition for TM outside of KL or Penang though – without access to trunk routes, there’s nothing anybody can do. If you’re in the lucky position of having some reasonably-priced trunk route access, and you want a cunning scheme to get subscribers, drop me a line. I can think of dozens of subscriber access schemes around 10Mbit\/s that would work a treat in Malaysia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
