Even from inside my home (from the comfort of my bedroom) a connection speed of 9.05 Mb/s means that the 4G Infrastructure can support really high speeds.Ģ) Yes is faster than Unifi: The 5Mbps Unifi package is no match for Yes, but that being said, once you go outside of Malaysia the difference becomes really really small. Here’s a couple of things I learnt from the test:ġ) Yes can go really fast.
#Unifi download speed test download#
For some unknown reason a Yes connection to Europe is far slower than Unifi, with a download speed less than half of Unifi, Yes seems to crawl in Europe.Īnother thing to note, Unifi connection speeds seem to be similar from US to Europe, Yes appears patchy.
Here Unifi really takes the battle and beats Yes by a wide margin. The war for Europe (Speed test to Rotterdam)įinally, I took a randomly selected European server, in this case a server located in Rotterdam. Yes however, is looking to make a clean sweep here. With almost nothing between them, Yes still edges out Unifi with a slightly faster Download and Upload speeds, still I doubt it’ll make a difference to your internet experience. Here the competition get’s really really stiff. With a randomly selected server from the states (Palo Alto), here’s the results: Now, very few of us actually surf websites in Malaysia and Singapore alone, so let’s take the competition state side. Journey to the West (Speed test against Palo Alto) Yes however still wins the download speed test with a very respectable 7.67Mb/s, but surprising its upload speeds and ping are still slower than that of Unifi. With a download speed of 6.74 Mb/s is even faster than my Unifi connection to the KL servers. Here it was REALLY REALLY surprising, that my 5Mbps Unifi connection manage to breakthrough the speed limit. For this I randomly chose the Singtel server: Next, I took the test down south to Singapore. The Battle for Singapore (Speed test to Singtel servers) So Yes appears to be the winner in Malaysia. The results were almost consistent with that of the KL Yes server. Next to even the odds, I tested my Yes connection to a Telekom Malaysia server in Cyberjaya.
However, it’s much longer ping time and surprisingly lower upload speed leaves much to be desired. With a download speed nearly double that of Unifi. That being said, Yes is really really fast. The first test I did was test against the local YTL server located in KL.ġ) I subscribe to the 5Mbps Unifi package, so it’s unsurprising that my Unifi speeds seem to be around the 4.5 to 5.0 mark.Ģ) The test was done against a YTL server in KL, and not the TM server in Cyberjaya. I used and while the results will probably be inconclusive, it’s a good benchmark to use in case you’re wondering whose faster. First I tested against 2 local servers (Singapore considered local here), and then 1 test each to the US and Europe. I also decided to run 4 test per ISP, and then compare the results. Some disclaimers before I continue, I ran this test on a Saturday morning where web-traffic shouldn’t be too high in Malaysia, and I subscribe to the 5Mbps Unifi Package and a standard Yes pre-paid package. I was left 9 days without an internet connection and was forced to reload my Yes Broadband package to go online.Īnyway, with a little credit left on my Yes broadband account, I decided to test out the speeds of Yes against my Unifi connection and see who comes up tops.
Alright, so my Unifi is back up and running, apparently it was an area wide network issue that caused half my town to experience a Unifi Blackout, I have thus named this debacle, the Great CNY blackout of 2012.
