A Telkom guy came around today offering an upgrade to 20MB for 700K a month.

Anyhow whoever has a good connection this show is definitely worth watching as is "The Jinx" not dissimilar as its really about the American justice System.Got to go to airport Bali here I come.

But that is thru the copper lines, isn't it?Not wifi?[/QUOTE][B]No.[/B] It's FTTH (fibre to the home). The fibre-optic cable runs directly to where you live. Also includes digital TV, free movie/international channels, (upgradeable for more), video-on-demand, and free digital telephone line (27 hours/month of free calls to anywhere in Indonesia).The phone itself is not free, but any normal one works when plugged-in.Downloads are unlimited (no caps or throttling).The modem is free plus a fibre-connected set-top box (then runs directly to TV). Wi-fi works fine for me (to laptop, desktop in another room, smart-phones and tablet). The total cost for my installation was Rp 75,000.I've been on it for a few months now with no complaints.

Where I am, 20-50-100 Mbs are not available yet. Maybe next week?There's a Telkom depot down the road from me which offers "up to" 100 Mbs for Rp 5,000/day. Only tried it once and got 15 Mbs. Still, not [I]too[/I] shabby for the price.I'm getting 10 Mbs with all the "features" mentioned.Paying Rp 450,000/month and happy about it (roughly 1/3 of what I was paying for my 3 Mbs unlimited ADSL before).The beauty of a fibre connection is that they're no need for a landline. I feel sorry for those stuck with wi-fi alternatives.[ATTACH]2638.vB[/ATTACH][URL]http://www.speedtest.net/result/4978478049.png[/URL]

We signed up to this wifi.id service before I had even heard of Indihome. The salesperson said the magic word "fiber" so we signed up. I think it is a service for businesses hotels, restaurants etc. I wouldn't recommend it mainly because you have to log in through advertising banner filled page everytime you use it, which also times out after about 10 minutes. You also can't log into the modem as they don't give you any passwords. The speed is good however.So we kept Speedy which are now going to upgrade to Indihome. We are going for the 20MB connection for around 700K a month. 50MB also available for 1,500K a month, which I wouldn't mind getting, if we can cancel the wifi.id service. The sales guy said it would be installed on Monday, which is pretty fast. 3 guys show up this morning and said they were going to install it, but soon disappeared. They seemed confused with our different modems we have.

Netflix just started in Thailand and "Berita Netflix" is the 6th most popular search phrase on Yahoo.

To use it down the end of my street, you simply buy a scratch card (Rp 5,000/24 hours) and the password is there to connect with.Don't understand why your different modems come into it (for IndiHome?). Network stuff can be confusing for anybody, (even "experts" make mistakes).IndiHome comes with its own modem and there's no need for others. I often run many devices at the same time without any problems. Make sure that the "sales guy" doesn't ask you to pay anything up-front (officially not allowed).One did that to me. I wasn't there at the time and my wife paid him Rp 100,000. I complained about it at the main office in Denpasar. They checked and said it wasn't on. He was in trouble. Telkom ordered him to pay me back. Never did. And he's still "working". Make of that what you will.I think you'll enjoy it when you get it. Beats Speedy hands down.

In effect we are a wifi.id hotspot. They gave us a login id. It is a 2 year contract so I don't know if we will be able to get out of it. If you need internet for business I wouldn't recommend it - your guests will hate it.Just before Christmas there was a big lightening storm and our Speedy modem broke. The Speedy team came out and gave us a new one with the Indihome brand on it. So when the technicians came today I think they got confused since we already had an Indihome modem and wifi.id Hopefully they will be back on Monday.The sales people we have dealt with have never asked for money and they have been fairly helpful. If you want to get it connected, I would suggest trying to track down the sales person in your area as they seem way more helpful than the staff in the Telkom office.Just signed up for the free trial of Netflix and it looks pretty cool so far.
