Examined one set over weekend.... Have to say new M8 looks and feels way cheaper than original One...

Ur job like so fun one, can try all the new phones

 

[Mach3.2]

My parents eyes can only see traffic light ISPs... they love the 25% family discount so much... if only ViewQuest or MyRepublic got mobile services.

Then go M1 sua, cheapest.

All 3 ish the same shiet, so why no go for the cheapest shiet..

I will never have the chance to change ISPs until I go and stay alone in like 15 years time?

in Call Of Duty: Black Ops 2

Singtel(me 200Mbps): 256 Ping
Starhub: 210 Ping
M1: 190 Ping
MyRepublic(100Mbps): 95 Ping

comparing all my friends gameplay ping

This all varies from each user locations that is for sure.

As long as the house to the exchange is extremely far away, your ping will be longer.

haha, beggars can't be choosers.

Traffic light ISP all shiet with bananaland "tech" support

MR used to be good until they brought in the STUUUUPID $50 1Gbps. And for the past 3 weeks, my international speed seemed to be slightly sluggish. The **** boss can go **** himself for going forward with 1Gbps

New Sign ups who transferred from traffic light ISPs to MyRepublic will be happy over the speed improvements, but existing customers rage gao siao

It boils down to many things actually.

1. Location from subscribers.

2. Distance from subscribers home to the nearest exchange for ISP where the fibre traffic is routed to.

3. The further the distance the more repeater they have to use to boost up the signal before it reaches its location.

4. Network structure & Traffic routing. Pure IP based traffics will never be so easy like from 1 point to 1 point and terminate. It is always travelling from one exchange to another. So example

Subscibers home in tampines > nearest exchange is at example pasir ris > go thru pasir ris > then reroute to tampines > route to ISP main core network > then route to the external sources like for instance a website.

5. Each exchange or repeater they go through, the ping increases. What is worse that the source of website or game server is outside SG. The ping is nuts. That is why most ISP do not dare to show their ping results outside SG. Including their download speed.

6. Heavy traffic will cause delays from fetching of results to end users.

Yup I got learn all this in school, indirectly...I thought tampines exchange was the building opposite tampines safra all the while ._. If it is at pasir ris, then what is that building? lol

I am those kind of difficult customer when it comes to gaming ping xD and since my parents dun let me change ISP, I will make it difficult at the ISP side xD, over a period of 1 month, singtel came my house 4 times last month lol

Told you all le from the start lol.

This things sure happen haha! Now they are happy that their customer volume might have increase. Now they have to come together and rethink of what have they done, and most probably gonna go through a even more painful process, which is restructuring and getting paid peanuts to do upgrading.

That depends bro.

Cause it is purely IP based. And they may need to route traffics to their main core which in this case should be at Comcentre for ST.

So lets say if you from tampines, they do not have a direct fibre from your home MDF, they have to reroute the traffic to comcentre. That is where it cocks up. They can even go through 10 exchanges before it reaches the comcentre.

 

[Ark Law]

Thinking to jump to VQ based on tjk's comments during the bbq. Ok lah, to be fair, Stinktel is still lightyears ahead of our poor neighbouring bolehlanders who have to deal with TMNut and quota-cap broadband plans
