  really appreciate it thanx a lot guyz

  I have got MOL in my 1st home and SNBB at my 2nd home, so I have got first hand experience of both and all i can say is that SNBB is the better deal. It's far more consistent that MOL. There are times when my MOL connection crawls.
  
  Dedicated connection is the way to go! IMO.

  Here's another article. From the dedicated side's point of view.
  
  Why dedicated?

  Why dedicated?
  
  Because then SingNet have to install more cables in your estate, billing you more money than ever. Starhub simply uses their own cable, SingNet must use phone line. Means if you internet lag, say goodbye to your current phone conversations.
  
  SNBB = Dialup.
  
  Consistency? As in the middle of the night when no on else using, your Bittorrent still 2kb/s while mine, no one using MOL, goes 60kb/s (yes, reach before)
  
  That is 5900/2 % difference.
  
  Consistency? I will rather value Flexibility.

  I'm pleased with Singnet for now, since it didn't give me any problems and hopefully, never any problems. We all know how "red-taped" is our customer service. *listens to music for 30 mins....*
  
  Rumor from HWZ: Singnet is cancelling the PSP promotion because they got problems with the PSP suppliers. The PSP will be replaced with something "equal in value". Details supposely released tomorrow on 12 Oct.
  
  True or not? See how.... Lucky never signed up.
  
  My guess is they're replacing the PSP with the Zodiac.
