QUOTE(Quantum_thinking @ Dec 29 2010, 11:38 AM) Please be reminded that it does not support torrent and downloading from certain file sharing sites and use other ISP to download ya. It doesn't? Hahaha I guess that saves me from committing sins Anyway I think I'm getting 3G Networking HW553 or LevelOne WBR-6801, instead of the UM MiFi

If someone is determined to commit it, nothing much about it. Anyway, how much does it costs for those 2 options?

I was told they are rm150 & rm130 each. Got another one, DIR 412. Cost less than 100 but it has got to be really bad because it's so cheap!

Switched to U Mobile recently, on my phone. Very happy with the signal, much better than DiGi and Maxis IMO.
Just to ask you all here, is it normal to have 3G connection only, not HSDPA? Because I have H signal on my DiGi, but only 3G on U Mobile.

i went to Berjaya Times Sq juz to test out the UM signal i sat by the side of UM Center using my iphone via the Maxis branded E5832 MiFi ( UM branded MiFi is a newer version E5832-S ) these were my results, take note of the upload speed, i believe no one can get an upload speed from a UM sim from a different location except at BTS UM Center this high except from a maxis sim
