First, you need to logon to www.tm.net.my (I know, your internet might be slow like snail, but you need proof to launch report, right?) There should have 3 huge buttons for selection (up till date 27.01.2010) as shown in pic below:
The main page for TM Net
Just click the middle one written Streamyx. A new page should be loaded in a while. Look for the button named "Speedometer" and click it to proceed (refer pic below). FYI, speedometer is the data download & upload test which will roughly show the quality of your internet connection.
Look for the Speedometer Test button located at the lower right corner of the page
A new window column displaying sort of meter bar should appear after this. Now, click the button "Start" located at the center as shown in picture below:
Press the Start button to execute the test
Some animation will appear displaying some sort of data transfering is running. Best advice is stop all other internet activities which might affect the outcome of the test result (eg. torrent download, video streaming like PPS & Youtube, VOIP session, file downloading, Instant messaging / web chatting like Live Messenger).
The total time of the test is about 2-3 minutes (depending on the speed of the connection). Finally the result will show you the extimated performance of the Streamyx connection (refer to pic below):
Display showing the test result. You may re-do the test by pressing Test Again button
Write down the result for Download Speed & Upload Speed. For example, the Streamyx package I signed up is 512kb, so by seeing the result obtained which shows 517kbps for download, it is considered as good connection quality. If you obtained result which is lesser than 90% of the promised speed (eg. below 922kb for 1MB/1024kb package), you may contact TM via dialing 100 for assistance. Do provide them the info on speedometer test result to ease their time to solve our problem.
Hope this helps.
