My Opinion: MetroFon/PenangFon is the best provider I have ever used here in Malaysia. I was using them during my stay in Penang for more then a year. RM60 for 2mbps up/down. Can’t beat that now can you damn Streamyx!!

If you realize, many of the providers above only offer up to a maximum of 2mbps and the prices are ridicules. Is there a limitation to what providers can give to end users set by the gov?

interestingly MetroFON's service in KL/PJ area is VERY BAD.

I used them for 1 year plus as no other option available (streamyx no port) and my god, 2Mbps line? I can hardly get 300Kbps... call customer service... almost always no answer.

Now back on streamyx as got port... using 2Mbps package, on average I do get 1.2Mbps which is a far fetch difference from MetroFON.
