haaaaa...after half an hour i moved my furniture around situated at where they were. Now that izzi has more coverage in damansara perdana, i can get 100% signal strength everywhere in the house. I like this lay out better, easy to eat in front of telly, seems more balance and can monitor my downloading easier. Oh yea...this reminds me i really need to get Merry Maid to come and clean the house. 

iv bn having problem with my internet and i almost threw the device into the longkang behind my house. A month ago i subscribed to iZZI (wireless broadband) and it works ok for a couple of weeks before the nightmare started to happen. The connection went solid for an hour and it died after that. It went down hill after that, it disconnected every 5 minutes. I did everything i could think of, including moving my computer nearer to the window and all. And the antenna doesnt help either, it made it worse even. I didnt have any problem receiving good signal (signal strength 100%) so are the other people whos staying at the same block. I lend to ernie whos using pc and it works fine on his machine. So, i thought it could be the hardware problem but most of people i talked to said mac has the most straightforward setting for internet. 2 nights ago i decided to do a little test to let my internet run without opening any application and guess what? it went on the whole night without any disconnection till the next morning. Last night i tested opening each application with the internet on. Safari: OK, Adium: OK, iTUNES: OK and Transmission: went kong after 2 minutes. So i called Chiang (izzi's tecnician). He told me izzi throttles p2p and asked me to reset my transmission setting to this: 

DOWNLOAD SPEED: less than 40kbps

UPLOAD SPEED: 50% of download speed

ACTIVE TORRENTS: 2

SEEDING: 1

Ill try this tonite and see if it works. Fingers crossed!

after a lot of trial and error iv finally get it to work, i capped it to 10 KB/s for upload rate. it seems to do the trick (its really not a trick actually). Except in the weekend, when i launched the torrent client, i still experience dc, caused by busy traffic.

its deepavali today...

and sigh! IM SICK. iv been coughing non stop since last friday. I guess the medicine didnt work..i went to see doc again and he bloody charged me for RM90 (thank god, its claimable), and i feel like im coughing out coals now..IT DOESNT GET ANY BETTER. i hate coughing, dry cough esp. It feels like a thousand blades cut ur throat everytimes u cough. 

oh..i guess my internet connection is more stable right now, it's not disconnected (yet). It has been more than 2 hours now. Yipeeee!! i hope it stays that way, i was really close to smash things up and throw the device in the longkang behind my apt. I was like tearing my hair (haha..what hair?) out looking for the solution when its all the isp's problem. Should've informed your subsribers about the upgrading iZZI. And Cheang (iZZI's technician), its not the hardware's problem, its the ISP. 

i guess ill rearrange my furniture on sunday after Ipoh. If im rajin, that is. haha. Since izzi's signal strength is excellent throughout the house, ill be moving back the computer desk next to the bed, and have the tv at its previous place.... and chi will be better.
