q2: no problem so far(well my friends used it)

q3: old model 3.6mbps only..better you get E1762 becouse max downlink 7.2mbps and max uplink 5.76mbps (all maxis broadband package are 7.2mbps)

guys, I plan to jump from U Mobile to Maxis wireless BB, the U Mobile is so unstable sad.gif

Since I already have the modem, which package shall I go for?
Prefer those without contract, so I can terminate anytime if I dont like
I actually got P1 also, but my sis who is drama freak used all the quota 10 days before month end sweat.gif

if you are light user, just go to power broadband plan...

i am also using HSPA modem,. huawei E270 and huawei E1762,. the best ever i get is 5mbps,.. even my signal is FULL green bar in MDMA dialer RSSI: -51dBm..

i think sometimes is not really about good signal,. is about the signal tower u connected to whether maxis have upgrade it or not,. i guess my area not yet upgraded to HSPA+ speed, but i am happy with the 4-5mbps every day and night speed, is amazing,.

mmm....but the HSDPA speed can max up to 14.4mbps right? hmm.gif

and about the HSPA+ can max up to 21mbps( I think can't reach that speed
coz currently maxis cap at 7.2mbps only).

I think maxis actually put the cap on HSDPA speed to 4-5mb only... laugh.gif
