wow...v2 already...

looking forward for Celcom BB "V2" enhancement speed oso...

I remembered someone saying that the speeds will probably improve on the 9th of May after some upgrading or something similar.

I'm really waiting for good speed after 9th May, if that is the exact day.
Though I'm in full HSDPA signal enabled area but I do not have chance to experience more than 400kbps.

Anyhow, congratulations to the birth of Celcom BB Version 2.

Well then you should get the D98 plan and perhaps you will fly with the speeds achieved with the D98 plan.

yep im also countin on that...9th may huh...its better have something

my hope is as high as celcom tower now

Well never put your hopes high on anything because you might just be very disappointed if it doesn't happen.

ahaaaa....wanna do the countdown?




nope..mostly are from oversea..i don't know if it's related but i'm staying near Menara Celcom

There are two reasons for not upgrading to D98.

First, budget kinda tight for every month, as a student I'm studying on my own expenses (with PTPTN loan), no pocket money from parents (as they are retired already better ask them to save for themselves), pay my own bills (telephone and Celcom) and rental.

Second, even on D68 I still can't achieve speed more than 400kbps, I can foresee if I were to upgrade to D98, it is not gonna have strong signal.

Though D98 is very tempting. By the way, does 7 days policy applies to D68 upgrade to D98 package? If yes, I might consider to upgrade when my financial is a bit loose. Else, I'll terminate D68 and straight apply for a new D98 package.

dude im already disappointed la

this my test speed for yesterday morning

Madness, that was like GPRS speed? Your connection got throttled already?

How about now? Mind to run a speedtest again?

wahhh this kind of speed so teruk
maybe u shud test it twice

yeah..worst then wired dial-up tmnet...

im still doubt whether my account was throttled or it was a network problem...as im only connected with 2 bar (-96dbm)

usually i'll get 4 bar with -77dbm, guess thats wht fluctuate the speed

n tonite speed is slightly better...lol



but browsing lowyat forum was fine, quite smooth...as my opera browser shows that its on 13-15 KB/s average for d transfer speed

aiyo.. i read all these stories about other users and celcom making me sweat..
at least most of you guys can torrent-ing

I think there is something wrong with speedtest.

Transfer rate around 13-15kB/s is quite acceptable. Mind to test using Firefox add on?

sorry fruitie,

i dunno why my firefox cant open up speedtest properly...it has an add on for dis? oh u speed tester freak

nvm i'll check it out later

Speed tester freak. I feel that I am.

By the way, this is the link to the add on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2360.

So you're working part-time now to cover your expenses ?

Anyway the 7 days return policy should apply only to the new subscribers.

Only selling things on Internet that also I'm kinda lazy. Well, PTPTN gives some extra money for our tuition fees so I just use that money as my pocket money. If really dry up already, I have to open my mouth to ask from parents but not much around RM 150-250 the most.

OK, thanks.
