Internet Speed

Gimme a fast internet, and I'll show you what I can do in an hour








Malaysian internet speed... one of the main reasons why we are still considered a third world country is when you log onto the internet.. of course if you're lucky, you could see an internet download speed of maybe 20-60KB a second, and when it goes to 100KB plus it feels like a miracle!! But then it rapidly drops back to sometimes below 10KB per second..
sometimes it feels like you can die waiting for that similar program to finish download.... I know I downloaded a 7GB file and today it's only done... yeah I started it last month -_-"

Kinda frustrating you know?? that we are so behind times that even 20KB a second can make me happy, while other people are enjoying a few hundred KB per second downloading speed in the overseas... where they could download a whole movie in less than 10mins while we have to take a few days to achieve that...
Sure Saudi is enjoying a slightly faster internet speed than us... roughly now I'm only beginning to see a little improvement in the 4MB/S speed, and we just only released it not too long ago which is rather sad...
and where those other people in the overseas is enjoying like 10 times the speed... TEN TIMES!!! UWARRRGH!!!!!
sure... we've just released a new thing called unifi... and alot of news is going around that they have a rather gay internet speed of a few hundred KB per second...

but of course the price is rather gay too.... and the cheapest package would limit to around 60GB a month... 60?? With such an internet speed I'll finish it within a week -.-"

then again we didn't get it for our house yet... cause I think the two year contract is rather suspicious to my father, since this is Malaysia too, not surprising if they suddenly shoot down the internet speed and you're stuck for two years... sigh la wei -_-

but ever since unifi was up, we who are using the normal ones are experiencing a really, really slow connection speed, so slow I even had to think twice before downloading a 20MB file because that might take a long time with an internet speed that can go up to 500bytes a second... yes, bytes!! not even a single kilo yet!!!!
either way my cousin got it, and I tried it today.... oh gosh this really is gay... 500KB per second was like a red sea parting before my very eyes... and yes I could get this 177MB file downloaded within a few minutes, where else it would take a whole night to do it in my house -_-"

what file is it??? Update for my PS3 lo, not sure why they keep on updating the firmware though, and downloading it with my PS3 just doesn't do justice -_-"

either way I abused it to the best of my hour when I was there, got to download lots of stuff~~ quite an achievement =)

then now I'm now back home to a normal internet speed... sigh, not so fast but... can't complain, just gotta be happy that I can at least go online rather than searching the whole place for a signal =p
