cause last time someone told me umobile use celcom network. so i make some wild assumption that it has the same coverage too

hey nice speed man. celcom kinda worst on peak time. lunch hour and prime time 8-9pm. sigh sakit kepala wor

but anyhow it all depends on location

finally... got capped after 25GB of downloads hehehe in 2weeks
its about time... dunno what else to download..

note: switch to Celcom for voice & SMS. not other services. Also, since when got extra charges? same voice rate for all users.

umobile's broadband depends exclusively on its OWN 3G network. that's why coverage is limited.

the roaming with Celcom network is to save cost. but ultimately, it benefits more to voice/sms users.

Added on July 28, 2010, 5:42 pmfrm what i see, coverage is accurate. only in JB, not other places.

maybe we should keep refreshing the page to see it "grow" j/k

my bad, what i actually trying to explain is broadband coverage. not voice and sms. i've heard when we use Celcom when there is no UMobile 3G network, celcom will charges us. correct me if im wrong

no hidden/extra charges.

umobile offer same rate to all, whether you are in the 3g network or roaming on celcom.

so, charges in klang valley == charges in kedah, terengganu, kelantan, pahang, etc.

thanks for the input guys. i will watch u mobile coverage from time to time. definitely gonna give u mobile a try

Guys, I dunno why the speedtest always shows my speed as 2mbps+ but it takes forever to load a youtube... Is there any reason behind this? I can still download stuffs 200kb/s+ speed... but youtube loads really slow

i have confirmed with the @umobile018 CS few months back..
for broadband.. when no U 3G coverage u cant use the net at all... it will never roam thus there will not be any roaming charges

but for voice n sms... when no U 3G network.. they tumpang celcom 2G network with no extra charge
soon... they will tumpang on DiGi but dunno when will start..

all that we know after the celcom tumpang contract ended.. they will tumpang DiGi.. including data n broadband 2G (EDGE)

well said cruxidex and cybpsych, that cleared up my misunderstanding. thanks for d info

i think i've been told like this also before but i've misinterpreted

yeah, the roaming thingy is mostly unclear. :blur:

found the FAQ here http://www.u.com.my/faq/domestic-roaming

i'm just wondering if taman politeknik Port dickson got coverage or not...cauze last time i check coverage at umobile site is available but now....

gombak,

i want to ask..

does the ip address of umobile broadband is a static or dynamic?

if dynamic will it recycle? means will i get the same ip address?

Added on July 30, 2010, 1:41 amwhat i read from the internet the umobile ip address is a shared ip address.. is it true? means i will have to share the ip address with other ppl?

This post has been edited by ilovelyn: Jul 30 2010, 01:41 AM

yep mostly mobile network will be using shared ip address

celcom, maxis and digi also same

chk the map again. i see Taman Politeknik got good coverage there.

i check again and
yesh it got coverage....
thx...

i heard PD got very good coverage and broadband speed.

just try the Prepaid first

also, they got this 12sen/min call rate now. no harm trying.

Correction there,
Celcom and Um (maxis as well but i forgot. nvm use them b4) are use NAT network. so meaning, everyone is coming out from 1 ip
Diginet is also the same but 3gdgnet is using dynamic ip which a true internet standard. (dynamic ip like screwmyx, everyone gets their own internet ip not some NAT IP)

3-2-1 go!
