yes u will be needing the 128k to be able to use 3g.

At first i also got an old one, when i got my 3gs from maxis they require me to get the 128k for RM25, so that i could access 3g

ohhh....thx for the info, guess i'll need to chg my simcard then, been using this sim card for lik 10++ yrs...lol..

Did you try in different areas? Sometimes you can get the 3G signal but there's no connection to the internet. It's just like you being able to capture Wifi signal but that's only from the point of your device to the Wifi access point. What happens from the Wifi access point to outside world (Internet) is a different case.

I've experienced cases where I can see 3G signal but I can't surf the net or check my mails, etc. The reason is because there were network disruptions after calling Maxis. Unless you're saying everywhere you go is the same then that's a different story. Also, try using EDGE to see if it works.

edge seems working but no for 3g, so that means its coverage problem?

@HellJoker,
3G and EDGE are both data services except 3G is faster.  Have you checked out the other thread to see if it could be because you need to create a profile for Maxis?
