You need the Network Interface Card (NIC) in order for your PC to communicate with the modem. 6 Will I enjoy fast speed at all times? Streamyx Wireless download and upload speed varies and is dependant on the following factors: Location of website - user may experience slow response from international websites. Capacity of visited web server - some web servers cannot cope with huge traffic demand from users. In addition, some sites restrict download speed of their users to ensure fair level of service among them. Network congestion - high level of traffic at peak times causing some slowdown. Running other application simultaneously - using other application (e.g P2P) at the same time can degrade download performance

5 7 What is Peer -to Peer (P2P)? Peer-to-peer is a type of Internet network allowing a group of computer users with the same networking program to connect with each other for the purposes of directly accessing files from one another's hard drives. P2P speed of download and upload depends on customer network cloud. It will be faster if the seeders (person who share their files) are in the same local cloud as the leechers (person who download the files). Example of P2P applications that are commonly used by Internet users are Kaza & Bittorent. Streamyx Wireless maximum download and upload speed is not guarantee for P2P or any international traffic connection. TM s policy had restricted and enforced the P2P regulations to avoid heavy congestion for Malaysia Internet cloud. Currently P2P is consuming greater bandwidth than other normal Internet applications (e.g. web browsing) for Malaysia s local internet cloud. 8 Will I enjoy fast speed for P2P? Throughput for P2P application (eg. Kazaa, Bittorrent) is subject to peers (seed) availability and their throughput as well. TM does not have any control over peers availability or throughput. 9 Why do I experience slow P2P although there are many peers available? P2P application uses a lot of bandwidth and can significantly reduce the connection speed of other users especially during peak hours. To ensure optimal broadband experience for all users, TM has imposed prioritization during peak hours that would restrict throughput for P2P application.
