To name a few Maxis, Celcom, Digi, P1 wiggy though this is wimax.

And i also hope to use torrents. so which is more better or atleast gives me a good download period.

You chk ur location u plan to use often.
If your location is under Wireless Broadband HSDPA coverage than should be fine.
If not den better dun subscribe .. coz the speed will be slow.

I'm using Maxis broadband - usb modem. > 12 GB package.
I have about 3 sim cards. all also company sponsor 1.

Use at office near KLCC all the time. Have HSDPA coverage full bars.

Download at Rapidshare, Ziddu, Filesend, megaupload can get downloadspeed about 40KB/sec - 138 KB/sec
= about 300kbps - 1 Mbps.

I din try download using torrent..

U can chk here for its packages.

Other service like P1 wimax oso quite fast.. heard can get about 1-2 mb avg speed..

totally depend on your exact location~ i can easily mention any one of the broadbands that I'm reselling but in the end, I'd rather recommend u one that is truly the best~

are u at Kepong? if yes, which part? regardless, feel free to provide me your exact location, preference of single or multi user, and your budget~

please check for the 'fair usage policy' clause in the agreement~ U-mobile uses Celcom's infrastructure~

Correction: U Mobile operate its own HSDPA network.

Yes, there is FUP policy. http://www.u.com.my/umobile/page/PricePlan...U/FairUsePolicy

It is "Unlimited" in the sense that no Excess charges for UB68.
