Comparison of Broadband Internet Plans
Unifi and Streamyx
unifi, by Telekom Malaysia, the national telecommunications provider, launched their first broadband service in April 2001 that many of us know as Streamyx. Their second broadband service that was introduced in 2010 is unifi – a high speed fibre broadband service.
Streamyx utilises DSL Broadband Technology while unifi utilises fibre-optic cables. Initially, most homes utilized only Streamyx, but as of late, more households in urban areas have transitioned over to unifi with superior internet speed and latency. Rural areas with no fibre-optic infrastructure, on the other hand, mostly still run on Streamyx broadband. Today, Streamyx has renamed itself as unifi Broadband, though it is still commonly called Streamyx by everyone.
Both unifi and Streamyx internet offer both Home and Business plans for your business' internet needs.
