Many times while surfing the net last night, I thought that I was using GPRS/EDGE...

Checked my settings, but, NOOOOOO, it IS on HSDPA/UTMS!

Sigh...it's so freaking slow...

Anyway, read in the previous thread that we should remove the battery to avoid overheating. So, how do you that with the new modem??

Whoa~~ today is 27th already. Can't hardly wait for tmr to come. Because after tmr billing date, my speed will go back to 3.6Mbps for a week (20GB is only one week for me). Wuahahaha.

Even if it's only 1GB usage per week for me, I NEVER got that speed.

Nah~~ The 3.6Mbps is at "best effort basis" <- (Sounds familiar?)

Top most can get 320KBps, but usually can only get 150~250KBps during daytime. As you know, maxshit broadband powered by solar, nite time sure slow speed.

U know what. With this maxshitbb, I am always signed out of YM after few seconds signing in!

And I can't repair my connection. It says error as my IP address cannot be renewed. Anyone had this problem?

Anyway, I managed to sign in back into YM after soooo many struggles using what I found in the internet - Ultrasurf. Makes me use YM smoothly. Finally...

DHCP problem.. there is... i have 3 computers at home... sometimes i start one up with the other started it gives me an IP conflict... which sucks...dunno why it assigns the same IP to 2 computers....

repair does not work.. it will just resolve it self in a very short while.. repair will just fail at "renewing IP address".. you can set your IP to static if you are running a desktop... less of this problems...

Err...can someone tell me, HOW DO YO REMOVE THE BATTERY FROM THE NEW MODEM???

there is a square panel at the bottom.. open the panel, take the battery out which is connected with small wires... unplug and there you have your battery out... better take it out cos it feels so hot like it is going to melt your modem.. DAMN china products...

anyways... today is the 28th... and the 1st is coming and re-start of the new month billing is coming... we can start to expect speed to get back up to our correct package.. stop whatever you are downloading and save it for the 1st (continue if you have more that you haven't download)... we'll strain our packages at full strain at the same time and see if it gives us the speed based on our package.. if not ... we can call and complain the shit out of them helpdesk and customer service... we are at least allowed for full speed based on our package for a max of 20GBs mar right... so that makes us have the right to fight for it if it does not reach at least 70% of the speed stated in the package...

you better make sure from your first KB till the last KB of the 20GB is running on at least 70% of your subscribed package...

MAXIS BEWARE...be ready for a jam...

Hey guys, I need some help here.

I'm on the USB modem package, speeds aren't too good but I guess we all know that.

Anyway, my problem is that just earlier today, my connection suddenly went wrong. I turn on the Mobile Connect software and I can find a network and log in, but I can't receive any data. Only the 'sent data' counter is running. I booted up the e620 tool for the modem and I can connect from there and surf normally. I can't reach their helpline either, I get a network busy message.

my speed is back too...but the whole network was down nationwide today...i just got it back up just now...

speed is back up...

also the invoice is already in for march... so this means we should start recording our rates now and make sure every byte is downloaded at as full speed as possible...

Maxis BB UNLIMITED usage!!! (max 20GB/month) WTF!!!

Don't use the word unlimited to fool customers.

Has any brought this matter up with the Comsumer's Tribunal (Tribunal Pengguna)?

False advertising don't you think so?

We are getting temporary speed bumps only!
1.2mbps..even a RM77 Streamyx line can get such speeds.

Time to boycott a company which actually exist only as a proxy for UMNO. This is one of UMNO's main funding source. All the money which you've been cheated of will be used to ultimately help a corrupted party become richer and stronger!

Editor Malaysia Today, Raja Petra Kamarudin menukar nombor telefon tangannya kerana tidak mahu lagi menggunakan perkhidmatan Maxis yang dimiliki Tan Sri Ananda Krishnan.

"Maxis dimiliki oleh Ananda Krishnan, kroni Umno. Dan saya diberitahu bahawa dalam pilihan raya yang lalu beliau menyumbangkan beratus-ratus juta ringgit kepada Umno. Itu menjadikan beliau musuh rakyat," dakwa beliau.

Ananda, dakwa beliau lagi, 'menentang' perubahan yang dikehendaki rakyat dengan menyumbangkan beratus-ratus juta ringgit kepada Umno di dalam usaha untuk mematahkan perjuangan rakyat yang mahukan perubahan.
