Go Wireless!
Wooo hooo.... WIRELESS IS COOL! *Everyone do the astroboy gig with moi NOW!*
Anyway, the day started out in a MESS. I missed THE tutorial that I was so looking forward to (ya rite) today! Freak. Both me and Ah liu thought was 2pm when it's supposed to be 1pm. We reached there when the lesson was over -_-" How malu-ating.
So.... after some cannot-be-understand-lecture, I went down to PS to get MAX-ONLINE!
Was supposed to meet the expert-of-wireless aka Ah Ben but that freak was mugging at FUNAN??!! and was late. So I embraced the starhub ppl all by myself. The expert-of-wireless told me that I need to wait for 5 days before I can collect the router at funan if I sign up for Max 2000. Tian ar.. Then wat's the pt of signing up rite? I want to surf on the day I sign up!
Anyhow, I took a queue no. from this super attitude guy from the reception. He looked abit like TAY PING HUI at first glance. Did I mention FIRST glance? Oh yes I did. He looked normal after that and he told me the same thing that the expert told me earlier. WAIT for 5 DAYS for the router! RAH.
So anyway, I went to the customer service sale ppl and DANG.. I dont actually need to wait for 5 freaky days for the router. COS there is apparently another plan, that is, the router comes with the modem. The catch? I will need to pay a higher penalty fee IF I were to bleach the contract within 2 years. In other words, I neeed to sign a two yr plan. The expert-of-wireless signed a 18 mths plan. 6 months more in exchange for 5 days of waiting! WHY NOT? Tee hee hee... So urs truly signed the 2 yrs plan. *yippi*
If you think that's all.. that's so wrong. Cos it's just the beginning. The person told me that I need to wait for ard 24 hrs after signing up to be able to surf. WTH rite. According to the expert-of-wireless, I can actually called 1633 and .blah blah blah.. *trade secret*.
So the very nice expert helped me to call in and HA LA with the operator. He sounded like so pro can, to a point where I think he's going to call CASE to complain abt SH. There's also this mixed up of accounts btw my dad and me. Tian ar.. SH lacks of communication btw their front line ppl and those CS guys. Though we din manage to get back the 30 bucks activation fees upon his CONFRONTATION with the sales ppl, I'm still a Happy girl cos I'm going WIRELESS!
But things wasnt that smooth going AS ALWAYS! Sigh...Went home and plug in those stuff that needed to be plugged in. Got all the connections right and I even received SIGNALS alright. BUt I cant freaky SURF the net. DAMN.
So I called 1633 for help!
I spent like 1 hr plus on the phone (HP OKIE! GEK XIN) with this woman who DIN even help me abit. All she asked me to do, the expert-of-wireless told me to do liao. TMD, I wasted like one hr of talking time with her lo. RAH. Pissed. After abt 1.5 hrs, she FINALLY decided to transfer me to the FURTHER troubleshoots line. PUI. I mean U should have done that like earlier if u cant help me rite.
Rah..So I have to wait for the FURTHER troubleshoots ppl to call me. And DANG... I missed their call while getting help from the expert at the same time.
SO I called 1633 for the 49556586 times. This time, a guy picked up. I thought he's just another HA LA ass. But woah.. I WAS wrong. Within like 5 mins, he found out what's the problem.

I plugged the cable into the wrong pt at the cable pt!
FM instead of TV
PUI
Damn Malu-ed la. But still, I think that guy is COOL! I think his name is HAI KIAT. I'm going to write a letter to starhub to praise him! Hahahahahahaaa....
I think the expert nearly disown me as his friend. HA. He claimed that he told me to plug into the TV pt not the FM pt. GOT MEH?
Alright, the pt of this post to urge everyone to go WIRELESS with Starhub. Just dont plug in the wrong cable and everything should be fine. Dont need to install anything. Plug and surf instantly! Haha.. it's damn cool! I can now msn/surf/WEBCAST on my bed, on the table, in the living room and even in the TOILET.
And more importantly, me and my bro/sis can all be online at the same time. I wont hear them asking me:
1: " Eh u use finish liao not? I want to use leh"
2. "When u going to finish using?"
3. " How come you use can I use cannot?? "
PEACE everyone. PEACE!
So.... GO wireless NOW! WOOT.
