Streamyx, bad?

Salam.

Lately, I can only go online when I am in IMU.

This is due to the fact that the No1 broadband in Malaysia actually frustrated me.

My modem lights keep blinking, indicating the lack of internet connection.

Interestingly enough, every time I take up the house phone to call Streamyx, the light stopped blinking, they stay lit.

And this doesn't happen only once.

When I first called Streamyx, I gotta go through the lines of operators.

Untuk BM press 1, for English press 2
For telephone and data, press1. For internet, press 2 and bla bla bla...

And by the time I reach a human to talk to, their staff, the lights are stable and steady. NO BLINKING.
So, I don't have any report to be done anymore, and according to the telephonist who checked my acc, I am connected to the internet.
Then, I say thank you and hang up.
Then, the lights start blinking again!
Aaaaaiiiisssshhhh............

I didn't notice the pattern at first but after a few idiotic attempts to call them to report and putting the phone down when the modem lights go stable, I finally see the pattern.
And so, every night after IMU, if I want to go online, I would have to do a phone call using my hse phone.
So far, I've only called Streamyx and hang up JUST BEFORE I am connected to the telephonist.
And then, I will call them again, hear all the adverts and instructions from the operator, to keep my internet going and then putting down the phone again JUST BEFORE I am connected to the human telephonist.

I have yet to try calling other ppl to see if the same trick works.
U see, I can't just put down on ppl while they were talking neither can I talk while surfing the internet at the same time.
And so, life is a test.
And without doubt, i am writing this in IMU library.... =P
