After fitting the modem, I like give my thought about the external view of P1 WiMax. The advantages are the modem is lighter and no fixed line and no messy wire around.

The disadvantages are no wireless router built-in, which is not a big issue as I got the wireless router and the size is bigger. It may not convenience, especially for whom you’re bring along and travel around.

The package that I subscribe for both broadband are Streamyx 1.0m and P1 Wimax 1.2m, which is cost me RM88 and RM98 respectively. P1 WiMax is promoting its broadband. You can try 15 trial days with fully refund if you’re unsatisfied. With 1 year contract will cost you RM98 per month,  you will able extend to 2 years contract during 1 year contract if you’re satisfy their service and performance, it will save you RM10 every month therefore. No contact, will charge you RM108 per month. For comparison, price is not a big key turn lock your choice nor the look.

I like to know how well performance of P1 WiMax and I did some test by SpeedTest.

In this testing, the download speed of Streamyx is up to 1333 kb/s, which is faster than P1 WiMax.

Then I did the test from server located in Houstan TX, US.

In this case, you can see the download and upload speed that P1 WiMax faster distinctly.

What do you think?
