I prefer using the download manager with the accelerator function. That is the best.

Cool, but what are the average download speeds you're getting? I know this is really subjective and it's based on location, congestion, the download servers, etc. but I'd like some sort of baseline on what kind of download speeds I can expect.

I downloaded Opera without any download managers - averaged about 30-40kBps. Is that normal?

Currently, i am outside the U mobile 3G coverage, so i cannot test for you. Which package you subscribe to? It seems to be quite slow.

i think 30-40kbps is quite slow if u using U68..

i normally get 60~140kbps download but keep in mind I'm living high building and might be blocked by another apartment block too..

I'm on UB68.
The Speedtest on the U Mobile site shows me about 2.2mbps - but real world usage lingers around the 30-40kBytes/s range. I tried MDMA to check my assigned profile, but unfortunately they gave me the dinky ZTE modem so can't verify my profile.

Try to use the free Download Accelerator Plus manager.

It boost my friend's Maxis broadband speed from 20kb/s to 300kb/s, but remember about the usage quota ya.

now U mobile trottle the speed after 5GB o 10GB? anyone here gt lucky being throttled at 10Gb?

my previous months: 10GB sharp sharp.

this month still early, not yet kena throttle.

icic, thanks 4 the info ^^

if speedtest shows 2.2 means quite ok what..
then the reason for slow download is the origin of the file itself..

Sometime for the broadband cases, it also depend on your location.

If i do not download from the file sharing site, i use the DAP and it is real fast.

soon, reliable sources told me when UM launch its Blackberry package, you guys will be able to roam on Celcom 2G/Edge&GPRS Data............maybe January 2011 where there is no UM 3G coverage

Finally Celcom is willing to let UM to roam on its 2G data to avoid UM taking DiGi's roaming..............

anyone can confirm this??

one lucky user here, never been throttled for 2 months, and been using about 100GB for these past two month and still downloading
BUT, the problems i've always encountered is frequent disconnection during night, about 5-7 times. this is price i've to pay for unlimited quota i guess

If complain would they improve instantly?

I guess have to wait them to upgrade their facility, so i prefer to use the prepaid now.


It is because this kind of users, ISP introduces the FUP....

nah, im just using an opportunity while it lasts. i've been using this service for 8 month, and every month i still getting capped whenever my quota reached 5gb. but these past 2 months, im not getting capped at all. no hard feeling k. peace

you mean you get full speed until reaching 100GB?

you believe him?

we need proof rite?

cool man, are you using those 3g router?

lol, it could be true.

even at 384kbps throttled speed, download at 24/7 for the whole month, it'd be around 124GB per month

throttled to 128kbps: 41GB per month.

yeah, full speed. usually i download from megashares and getting 350-370kBps. do i need to show proof? later

nope, just using normal unlocked maxis modem huawei e1762. maybe they try to compensate my loss after they draining my rm100 last 2 month because i forgot to subscribe. what a shame
