I am currently subscribing to the daily pass. great speed for surfing. here is the test results:



I am using w890 sony ericcson which is a hsdpa enabled as the modem. the modem is configured to it's highest speed which is 921.6 kbps.


is there anyway to jack this speed higher so i can get better speed? thks


any other configurations i need to know? thks

Tried out the RM2 / hour prepaid broadband - excellent. Maxis gives you a unique global IP address, unlike Celcom and Digi which put you behind their internal routing.

100 MB limit - have to be careful not to exceed this. With 3.5G and 1.8mbps, you can easily hit the limit within 1 hour. Thumbs up for Maxis.

btw - maxis blocks torrent. That's the only downside.

just know bought 1 hotlink sim and having a hard time connecting on the 3G network with my E220 modem~ haih... can only connect with EDGE with my modem

but if use phone as modem can connect...

thts weird, i tried postpaid sim and hotlink sim with e220. works just fine for both, can get 3.5g

yesterday i use my postpaid sim with mobile internet 1day pass
tonite i use my hotlink sim with mobile internet 1month 500MB pass

but since this evening after 4pm i cant use both... only can use EDGE or use my phone will get 600kbps DL speed~

How much do I need to pay if I exceed 3GB?

For prepaid customer:
When you reach 3Gb of usage, your session will be disconnected and you will receive an SMS notification. Subsequently you can call customer service to terminate the existing subscription and you can then proceed to purchase a new 3GB package. You will be charged for the new subscription. This applies for 500MB and 1.5GB passes as well.

For postpaid customer:
The session will not be disconnected. Subsequent usage after 3GB will be charged at 0.05 sen/KB but charges will be capped at a maximum charge of RM250 per bill. This applies for 500MB and 1.5GB passes as well.


adoi la~
im afraid if subscribe RM78 without device maxis bb package in the long run the connection quality not good... (it's been a long time since i last compare the Maxis BB vs Maxis 3G unlimited thread)

pls advice
wanna jump ship from celcom bb

I don't see the option to subscribe to hourly broadband inside *100# - only daily and weekly - is the hourly option hidden somewhere or has it been taken out?

by any chance ur using postpaid ? i believe hourly is only for hotlink

edited; i have seen it before, the option was there but couldnt remember which sim i tried (i have both, postpaid and prepaid)

Sorry - forgot to tell - I'm using Hotlink.\

Just went to the site, the charge schedule no longer has hourly...dang I bought this hotlink pack specifically to try prepaid BB... :-(

u can try daily, it's only rm8

btw the speed has been inconsistence, it's slow during the day (300kbps-512kbps) and at night it will be super fast (1mbps-2mbps)

I'm at home right now where DiGi BB's coverage is marvellous. Was thinking to use hotlink for work (DiGi only got EDGE there) - so naturally I don't want to waste too much here...

ic.. u can try daily when ur at the office, u have 24 hours.

it falls on the MOBILE INTERNET menu not the PREPAID BROADBAND menu...

cant connect to 3g since yesterday noon... CS said my place network congested n i think i agree coz at Seksyen 8 Bangi still can connect after few tries... and at ALAMANDA stret away can connect using 3G network..

this Error 619 displayed each time i wanna dial using my E220 since i upgrade to the latest firmware from maxis website

on EDGE
