Simple Tweak to Increase Broadband Speed

Posted on the August 29th, 2009 under Tips & Tricks by (Beaulife) Altis Lo

This is a simple 3-minute tweak in your Microsoft Windows XP Professional (not for any other versions) to increase your Internet broadband speed. I have tested with TM Streamyx, Celcom Broadband and P1 WIMAX with my Microsoft XP Professional and I am so far quite happy with this tweak, no much technical knowledge involved. Most importantly, this is a free trick.

By default (even with QoS disabled) Windows XP Professional reserves up to 20 percent of your connections bandwidth. This tweak will override this reserve and become effective immediately after the tweak is applied.

Vote for P1 WIMAX Coverage Now!

Posted on the January 20th, 2009 under Lifestyle by (Beaulife) Altis Lo

You could have heard about the Malaysia first WIMAX launched by P1, but getting frustrated for the limited coverage area for wireless broadband.

Now, it’s time to vote for the next coverage area, just to click here. For the citizens (like me) who are staying in the southern part of Peninsular Malaysia, or Johor, from any towns, please actively vote for the new coverage area, so that P1 knows where to roll out the WIMAX service.

The success of our next generation (wireless) broadband service is as easy as only a click.

Cheers!

WIMAX in Malaysia

Posted on the August 10th, 2008 under Lifestyle by (Beaulife) Altis Lo

Malaysia will very soon be launching WIMAX service, in August 2008 as seen in the recent PC Fair 2008 (II) at KLCC.  There are a lot of media coverage about WIMAX in Malaysia, and all 4 licensees are working hard to roll it out soon.  When I did a search in The Edge Daily, with search from 1st January 2008, it looks like Packet One, also known as P1, is standing out from the other 3 licensees awarded by Malaysian Communications And Multimedia Commission.

With the news releases about P1’s WIMAX, their showcase in the WCIT 2008 and PC Fair 2008 (II) in KLCC were attracting a lot of interest from Malaysian public.  They have determined to achieve the Government’s target to cover 25% of population by end of year 2008, and to achieve at least 60% within the next 5 years.  One of our pro-blogger, Mr. Liew CF, who has a very popular blog (http://www.liewcf.com/) and could be the first full time blogger in Malaysia, had a hands-on test during his visit to PC Fair 2008 (II) in KLCC, and his comment was positive.  Read his first trial at http://www.liewcf.com/blog/archives/2008/08/back-from-pikom-pc-fair-2008-ii-klcc/
