woohoo, that's very good to know
happy new year everyone!!

Hi, I just got this UMobile ZTE modem, UB68 plan last few days. Looking to others' speed, I'm so jealous, I didn't got that fast.

1. I stay at Shah Alam, Seks 26, the max speed I got just only 1.64 Mbps, as below. Is this normal?







2. The green/yellow light on the modem, keep on flashing whenever I'm online, is this normal? I though this light should be on all the time.

3. I'm using desktop, tried to connect this modem through usb extension, the green/yellow light is on but I can't get the internet connection. But it would be no problem if I plug the modem behind the case, to the usb port directly. Anyone know why?

Thanks for the help, I really want to understand what is happening.

you are using Umobile? the speedtest shows tat your ISP is maxis

meanwhile New Year Greetings to all

Happy New Year

i'm not using UM, using maxis. why am i in a UM thread? hehe cz i was begging ppl to sell me UM MiFi. but then since no one did, i got myself a 3G router instead.

may i know is the mifi plan rm68 same as normal plan rm68 in term of speed and usage max speed at 5gb?

or mifi plan have higher speed?

same speed & usage. the only diff is the modem, which is the MiFi..

anybody stay at SS2 or Taman Sea PJ?
how the speed?

From my usage experience, usb modem reception is better than the Huawei E5 Mifi device.At least when compared using the Huawei E1550/E1762.
Won't see the difference because uMobile is still using 3.6mbps HSDPA everywhere except BTS.
2mbps+ is the max you can go and that is if you can get full bars or 4 all the time.

Anything weaker than that don't bother upgrading.

Anyone has download big file problem ? (example file above 50MB)
Yesterday i try download a big file (59.7MB) from Worldbank website
http://data.worldbank.org/data-catalog/wor...ment-indicators
but after downloaded 17MB it simply stop there and than un-able to complete the download.
Tried 3 times, all un-success.

its already 1/1/2011, my speed is still capped =(

same here

Hi again, could anyone please give me some explanations to my post above? I really want to understand what is happening. I quote it the spoiler below, TQ.

u will get 16KB/s when u reach the quota.

dont happy so early

ok, i'm confused. 1st, 384 kbps after quota. then 128. now 16?! Which one is right?

1. i think the speed is kinda normal. cuz, wireless broadband is all about coverage area n the number of simultaneous users right? so even if the area is good, maybe theres just a lot of other users. i mean, it is shah alam instead of kelantan or what. right? im using UM in pjs 7, near taylors lakeside. heres my speed.



this speed at 1.30pm

i guess its pretty much the same

but i have to say, UM so far is very good. speed maybe not the best but its acceptable. can still download and play games.

almost the same as my 1Mb streamyx at home



2. if can online does the lights matter

3. this one im not sure. cuz my agent told me to do like that, put the modem near window or what using extension to get better speed. he do like that working no problem. have u tried in on a laptop? maybe its the extension
