Benchmark Results
At my house, I got more than 1 Mbps for download and upload in early morning. During office hours, I got from 400 to 800 Kbps for download while around 250 Kbps for upload. At night, download speed is the worst with around 300 to 400 Kbps only but increased upload speed at 700 Kbps. Let’s talk about other places… I got around 2 Mbps download and more than 1 Mbps for upload at Kulim Hi-Tech Park during noon. And around 2 Mbps for both download and upload at restaurant near to North-South Expressway (NSE) Sungai Petani North Exit at night.
