I’m currently staying in Kelana Jaya where I applied for Streamyx 512 kbps package which is a staff package since my dad is working in TM. One Malay guy came to my house to fix the wifi router and the internet. He was talking to me,  i mean bragging to me about this Riger wifi router. He was saying, now Malaysia have their own router, no need to buy from some white man company anymore. I was just keeping quite all the way while he was braggin and told him thanks before he left.

For a few months I was satisfied with the service since there wasn’t any problem and the internet was stable. I was actually about to post something good about Streamyx but unfortunately, one fine morning suddenly my internet wasn’t working. So I thought of just restarting the router and tried it but still couldn’t connect. Then I went to the router and checked the settings and nothing was wrong. After checking all possible ways to connect to the internet I gave a call to ‘Streamyx Customer Care’. I always wonder why TM places such useless customer care consultants ?? They cannot understand any technical thing, and the best part is, they think we the customers are as stupid as them !!
They are trying to ask me to configure, check this , check that..and I followed everything they said. Then the sent a technician to my house. To make my story interesting, I’ll give you pure facts to show you that I’m not bull shitting here. That technician’s name is Fendi, and I told him my router is a problem and he doesn’t wanna believe me and he took more than half an hour to check everything and finally figure out “Ya la, router yang masalah”. Then he change for me and it worked , but guess what !! The story begin’s here..

Not even a minute he left, I offed the router and on it back and it didn’t work again. I immediately called that technicians office and talked with the Supervisor, Pn. Sabariah. I asked her to send him back, and that guy came back and check and he told me, ‘mungkin firmware ada masalah la’. Then he called up is colleagues and tried to get the firmware and update it. He updated it and it worked, and left again. This time I get to use the internet a little longer. After 5 mins, I can’t get to the internet. This is what happen last year, to be exact, 2 months back.

From that day, I have been calling Streamyx and all the useless Customer Care staffs think I’m some useless guy who knows nothing about computers, router’s and networking, and asking me nonsense question. What operating system, what router, configuration, bla bla bla..
Everytime I call, I have to answer all their nonsense question. I’ll be frank here, I would have called them approximately 30 – 40 times. since then. Each conversation can be posted as another post under jokes category.

Then the technician called me and told me, use another router and guess what.. It worked ! Perfect !!
It seems that TM server and our wonderful Malaysian Company Riger router is not compatible only in my area. SS3 Kelana Jaya..
I can bet you that this Riger company which has a contract with TM belongs to a Malay guy. Why I say so ??
Because if it was Chinese or Indian, TM wouldn’t change the contract form Aztech to Riger.
Mana boleh kasi Cina, India duit juta juta ??

So my report was open, and a guy from Customer care called me up and asked me if he can close the report. I asked him, saya punya problem sudah settle ke belum ?? He said belum.. Then I said mana boleh close  report ?? But that guy very smart, he close my report. He’s lucky I didnt get his number and his staff ID. From then on, I called up and open a report on 22nd January and till now my report is not closed. They keep calling me to close the report, but nowadays I dun allow them to close the report, plus I get their names and staff ID.

Till now, I haven’t got a solution for my problem. Let’s see how long they take, to solve my problem..

I made a google search for streamyx and found this image.
Although I don’t like to extremely talk bad about streamyx.
This is the best photo which is quite decent that I can get.

Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin has received numerous messages from his non Muslim friends in Sabah and Sarawak, telling him that some Christians felt that the current crisis could have been avoided, “if we, the Christians would not just use the word Allah”.

You know what, I have been so nicely avoiding all political issues because I’ve already given up on this country, but my dad was reading this and he was laughing at it and when I read it and saw this fellow talking like this in our Malaysian news, I just cannot stop laughing to see how a minister can answer like this in overseas. I bet you, all the other foreigners who heard this probably would be talking about this to their family and laughing all the way. Such a stupid answer !!

The government is asking the Christians not to use the word Allah, after all this while the Christians have been using this word to worship God. Can’t that bl**dy f**l see that it is not the Christian who started this but it is the fanatical government who uses religion issues to cover up all their other issues ? Sugar price has increased but no news about it ?
Our Polis Diraja Malaysia/Polis Raja Di Malaysia said that there should not be any protest held, which makes it illegal protest but there wasn’t any water cannons, tear gasses and kicking ?? Sounds weird, cause when people bring flowers there was all this havoc but when people shout Allah HuHaHa and carry cow head all around, its ok. And our Mr.1 Malaysia said, we cannot do anything to stop them from protesting. What a wonderful statement..  You think they really gonna vote for you Mr. 1 Malaysia ?

This is another statement from Muhyiddin

“This is a constant and permanent challenge. Just as I speak here today, there is hue and cry among the Muslim community in Malaysia over a High Court ruling which allows a Christian publication to use the word ‘Allah’ in its newsletter.

What the ?? Hue and cry ? I think its better if its replaced as, there is shouting and racist bastards…
Malaysia and Islam and Barisan Nasional !! Listen to this !!
The war is not between the Muslim and the Christians, because we Christians are not taught with killing and jihad, we are taught to forgive and love our enemies because we do not need to fight and win the war. God is against you, and God will fight the war for us. He never told us to worry about anything. If you cannot determine who is your God just because of one word ‘Allah’, that ‘Allah would be really sad right now cause now he might be confused of all this time you calling Allah and now after this crisis he might be wondering that if you were really calling Him.

XP has been the major operating system which is very stable until today but it was lacking this feature since it was implemented in Windows Vista. I have actually just installed Windows XP as another operating system because I would like to do many projects but I’m being stopped by the operating system. I have Creative Audigy Value sound card and other recording and audio devices and I want to use it for some recording purpose but due to driver incompatibility in Vista and also in Windows 7, I decided to use XP as another operating system to suit my other requirements.

Whenever I use it, I find it a little difficult after getting used to Windows 7 and Vista. Especially without the search option, it really makes it difficult to go and search for the file I want which will be inside a few folders. Finally I found an update from Microsoft where you can actually install Windows search in Windows XP. This is a screen shot of how it looks :

So XP users, you can start enjoying this feature. You can download it from the link above directly from the Microsoft’s web site.

I used to keep up with the issues around especially with political issues and I always blog about it. But after knowing some rap*st becoming our ministers and all those 1 Malaysia lies. And I still see some fellow jumping parties here and there. People still voting for this wonderful government, so I just don’t even wanna listen to anything about this country. The more I hear, the more I irritate myself.

Recently I’ve been wasting a lots of time not doing anything although I have so many things to do. Guess I have to manage my time properly. I need to also work and complete Drewbuzz Radio 2.0. Will be releasing it soon and will try to keep blogging to keep this site alive.

I made some research and I was trying to look for a phone with the functions I need.
Was looking for a decent camera, GPS, 3G and something where I can get some cool apps.
I had a some liking towards slide phones and after some research, seems like Nokia phones has a lot of functions. Nokia’s operating system , Symbian is unique and caught my attention for some reason. I seriously dislike spending a lot on phones but i really like the functions in the phones. My dad agreed to get me one, so I was deciding and thought of giving it a try and decided on Nokia N85.

Now have a look on the phone I decided.(I was lazy to snap pictures of the real phone I bought, so I grabbed these pictures from the net)

I guess it looks better with these photo’s.
Now lets go to my review. So far, its been a good phone to me.
I like the design and the phone itself. This phone is a dual slide phone, the slide upwards is fine but the downwards a little bit hard. And as you can see, it has a navi wheel but I don’t really think its a very cool thing. It has a 5 MP camera with Carl Zeiss lens and the quality of the images are really nice. It even has an FM transmitter function, where we can transmit music to a FM radio within a range.
And as for me, since I still don’t have a good internet connection 3G works just fine for me. I can get a speed of 70kbps when downloading a file.
Other than that, the phone’s firmware can be upgraded easily. Just check for updates on the phone and it will inform you if there is an upgrade, just use 3G or WiFi and you’re done.

As I said, Symbian phones are unique and has many cool apps and its very flexible. I even used an application to take screen shot of my mobile. And now these are real photo’s of my mobile interface. Have a look on the apps I have on my phone :
(Not a Celcom user. Using Celcom, just for the 3G. Its a sad thing Maxis and DiGi got no 3G plan for a week or a day)

So these is my review on N85. I guess I’m more than satisfied with it.
Its a great phone and would recommend it to anyone and I thank God cause I have an opportunity to get such a phone.

After I started my degree  in Cyberjaya, I didn’t find any rooms or didn’t even apply for the hostel.
Currently staying in PJ in my uncle’s house. I’m still looking for a room in Cyberjaya for a reasonable price.
So I can’t actually apply for streamyx since they have a 1 year contract.

Luckily I had this DiGi Campus plan, where they are offering RM30 for unlimited data usage.
So i decided to give it a try, and by the way, the speed is not bad. Not fast , not slow !!

OK, first of all, your phone should have a modem function.
You can either connect it through bluetooth or your phone cable to USB.
The easiest is bluetooth because, it will find the modem and its driver automatically.

Once you have connected your phone to your computer, you should have a new modem in your computer.
All we need now is just a dialer. Go to Network Connection and create a new connection.
Create a dial up connection with the number *99#. Make sure that your dialer is using the modem from your phone.
This dialer doesn’t have a username or a password.

Thats all !! Just click connect and you now have internet on the computer.

Note : You must have your GPRS activated & GPRS setting correct in your mobile phone in order to use this on your computer.

Had some trouble in registering my subjects but the FIT administration helped me out and solved my problem easily. Went for a few classes and looks like my Digital Systems lecturer is moving with the speed of 8 GB ram and a quad core. She completed quite a number of things in the first class.

Currently waiting for my Database Systems lecturer in a lab.
The internet here is kinda fast.
This is a screen shot of a speed test from the lab :
