Modem brand/model?

I can no longer login with my Huawei USB modems anymore too.

Surprisingly my ZTE USB modems still work.

hi quantum...

i managed to find RM8 starter kit at 7-11
so i need to top-up another RM10 for broadband to get 100MB for 30 days, is it correct?
can i reload the broadband credit at 7-11 too?

does the phone configuration is included in the starter kit?
or just msg to *118# and it'll configure the automatically?

Guys and Gals,

Can anyone verify the following content in this thread?

anyone using um mifi?...y when connected more than 1 devices the wifi connection always disconnected?

When U mobile 3G is not available, usually the U mobile sim card would change to celcom 2G network.
LOL.

If want torrenting, go and use TM Net la.

Hi, I bought a E1762 modem from maxis and try on with the UB10 to test for the speed.
Unfortunately, when the time i click connect i will have the problem of connection terminated.
And the signal shown is Celcom edge.
Is it my area unable to UB plan?
Or is it the modem problem?
I already tried the services activate the Remote control xx xxx and  also the telephony and delete a file in the all users account.
none of them works..
now is already too late for me to try it on another area..hope someone can gives me some clues..

Just wanna thanks Digilife for getting the umobile line up for me.

Thanks dude, im surfing and lowyating with it now

Looking at uMobile site everyone gets to trial the 42mbps speed provided they have the right equipment.

Be it UB6 to UB68, you still can achieve 42mbps but with lower volume before it goes PAYU.

Added on April 14, 2011, 10:00 pmSo the upgrade would be 42mbps DC HSPA+ for both Penang and JB

While Klang Valley, Ipoh and Seremban (Central Regions) will be getting LTE?

Now here comes the not so good news.

If the LTE upgrade is true, then those of us who live within LTE coverage will not see much improvement for our existing HSPA modems because LTE is not as backward compatible as HSPA+ 42mbps.

With a Huawei MiFi HSPA device, although I'm getting slightly improved upload speeds(around 300kbps), my downloads can never reach 2mbps as previously. All these even with full signal bars.

If upgrades is in place, we should be getting something nearer to 5mbps but I'm no where near that.

and by the way 500mb is a lot if you're going to use the SIM entirely inside a smartphone without teethering as a phone modem & watching Youtube on it.

This is from experience that Youtube app is one of the highest consumer of bandwidth.

Smartphone app downloads and news/weather updates won't take that much bandwidth.

Our information minister recently said that there would be 2 companies which would offer 100mbps soon.

Hinting from the information gathered through the news the two 100mbps LTE players would be Celcom and uMobile confirmed.

Celcom to trial LTE in Perak and Negeri Sembilan

Currently I put the sim card into my phone and it indicating umobile 2g..

The Huawei E372 will be obsoleted and will not perform optimally with uMobile's ZTE equipment.

Word has it that ZTE will introduce a newer DC HSPA+ modem soon which is the ZTE MF680 to uMobile.





It is better to use the same modem brand with the equipment vendor for good compatibility reasons.
Before this my oem ZTE modem seems to prompt out errors each time I click on the connect button.Had to clcick cancel 2 times before it resumed.

However after the upgrade works it seems to have connected without the code error anymore.

I believe we should wait for the new ZTE MF680 modem instead since all this time, uMobile supplied free ZTE usb modems with their old HDSPA plans.

ZTE UniRAN solution is SDR based and therefore the transitional upgrade between HSPA+ to LTE can be made by just a software update.

They were the first in the world to introduce commercial SDR equipment and the built it in HK the last time if I could recall it right back in late 2008.

i just got my U prepaid to testing at my house and office. Activated yesterday.
Reload RM15 ( with RM5 preloaded ), now is RM20. Then go for RM20 broadband,300MB/month.

Speed at USJ 21, 1.5Mbps
Speed at Desa Sri Puteri ( Desa Petaling ), 11th floor also same average 1.5Mbps
only thing is upload speed slow.

thinking to MNP my hotlink to U. Then go for RM28 package, with 500MB/100min/50 sms for my HTC smartphone....
low usage only just good for FB, little web browsing...at least NO EXTRA CHARGE after exceed 500MB, but still can get lower speed....

first, you may try to get a starter pack @ RM8 like me. Suggest you buy direct from U service center, because prepaid sim need to register and activate also.
I bought from 7-11, then have go to Berjaya Times Square to activate, so it just me drive 2 places. Wasting time.

Another method buy online from www.u.com.my
They will send to you.
Last week i went to BTS, the guy said if buy online, no need to go there register again.
I have tested key in and buy online, but failed to choose number...
The new sim card already preloaded RM5. Then reload RM5 minimum from M2U, you can try U10/30 days/100MB broadband. Or RM6/day/500MB.
Remember there is quota . So don't top up too much, if not, after quota it will charge RM0.05/MB.

If the speed ok for you, then just reload to get the package which is suit to you.
U68/5GB is recommended, because no extra charge after exceed quota.

I buy in 7 eleven, but i go to Sunway Pyramid to activate it. 7 Eleven does not help the user to activate the prepaid sim card.

RM28/month unlimited package is the best so far by U mobile.
