SERVICE INTERRUPTION

Dear Valued Customers,

Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) wishes to announce that there is a disruption of its Internet services due to circuits fault on Southeast Asia - Middle East - Western Europe 4 (SMW4) submarine cable network between Palermo (Southern Italy) and Alexandria (Northern Egypt) linking Malaysia to Europe. Due to this, customers using Internet services may now experience slow browsing while accessing websites hosted in Europe.

In addition, customers using other IP services such as Virtual Private Network (VPN) and other critical business applications linked to Europe may also experience some service degradation.

To alleviate the problem, some of the links have been rerouted to alternate routes to ease the congestion.

Restoration works on the affected cables are already in progress. However, in the restoration process, traffic to Northern America may experience minor degradation while traffic to other countries is not affected. TM expects the complete recovery of its services by December 31, 2008. TM will make further announcements on the progress of the restoration works.

TM wishes to assure its customers that it is undertaking all necessary measures to restore communications services for its customers as soon as possible.

Customers can call TM at 100 and select “Internet Services” or e-mail us at help@tm.com.my for any Internet related problems.



Thank You.

We are noticing an extreme loss of connectivity of international connections to Malaysia as at 12 Feb 2009 6:15PM GMT+8.

This appears to be a Streamyx problem and we are monitoring the situation. Please do note that support during these times for Malaysian customers will be difficult to troubleshoot while connectivity remains poor.

Edit: This appears to have cleared up sometime about 8.00 PM but please do post reports if you are experiencing any SIGNIFICANT slowdowns.



untill now, they haven't fix the problem even i just realize it like last week. For those who have problem going in facebook, ultimate guitar or whatever european websites will face very slow connection. But if you are the lucky one without problem, means basically they fix in your area already.12 of feb isn't a great day afterall even is a speical day to me. God!
