    Assalamualaikum tuan barzrul. Ada satu benda yang saya pelik pasal broadband streamyx ni. Bila buat Speedtest, download speed = lebih 300 KB/s. Tapi bila actual download, max speed lebih kurang 100 – 120 KB/s ja. Kenapa jadi mcm mana tu? Mcm mana nak jadikan max download speed 300 KB/s?

      Wassalam tuan.. Speed test depend kepada ping, download depend kepada server. Selalunya server yg provide download akan limit speed utk jaga bandwith dan download akan jadi slow daripada actual value masa speedtest.
