The primary "Internet" related gripe I have with MStar is that they are blocking port 25 INBOUND.
This is interesting. Granted I am with MStar on iProvo, when I spoke with a representative, he specifically said they do NOT block any ports. I don't run a mail server at home but I should try putting one of my linux box's ssh on 25 to see if I can connect...

 Don't know where the comments about Utopia issues come from but there are far less than I have seen with any DSL service.

As for the comments on "Caps." If they do have them I have not seen any enforcement or warnings but am sure I have gone over 100GB before.

The primary "Internet" related gripe I have with MStar is that they are blocking port 25 INBOUND. I don't really understand there reasoning for that but it only affects a few of us who actually run our own mail servers from home.

I just wish Mstar would have told it's customers about this upgrade! I have not seen an email or anything.

My 15/15Mbps rocks but 50/50Mbps!!! Sweet!

As for there Video Service... They still have kinks to work out as I still get short pauses that are quite annoying while watching TV. If you ask me it looks like packet loss but they don't seem to have anyone to really help in the matter.

Also they decided to time shift Cartoon Network so Adult Swim doesn't start till midnight. The funny part is they time shifted it when AS started coming on at 11PM. Back when it started at 11:30PM and they announced it would be starting at 11:00PM I was excited only to find Mstar push the programing back 30 min!
