I see. Thanks a lot.
If they are gonna provide users with this speed, i hope that they would give us more data quota.

No use if have high speed but low data quota..
*
for the 42mbps speed, dont expect to get at this speed from end-user (unless you are very very near the upgraded-towers that serve 42mbps)


hope they increase to maybe 20GB from now 10GB? brows.gif

dont want macam ytl yes: 11mbps (average) but at pay-as-you-use rate. you will sure get "credit" shock because faster speed = user more quota quicker = burn more credit fast fast sweat.gif

It is already said in their FAQ. A different pricing plan would be out when launch. It'll not be the same as the current RM68 unlimited plan.

http://www.u.com.my/faqs/42mbps-mobile-broadband-service
3-10mbps makes it even slower than Yes.
*
start compare with "yes" after 3 years of operation: customers increase, bandwidth usage sure increase if ppl excessively use it.

then we'll see how fast "yes" can offer; in terms of handling increase of customers and bandwidth.



am not expecting ub68 to go with higher 42mbps. maybe a bit more, rm88 or rm98 or rm108.

What to do? This is a democratic country. People are free to do what they want, the only thing they should be concern of is the consequences.

in this case, I hope that the FUP can do more than just throttling based on the data usage.
*
what lack thereof is education of FUP itself.

noobs (newbies) cant even understand what the heck is FUP all about.

no telco really bother to explain the effect of FUP to user or to each broadband plans. sweat.gif

2 out of 3 questions already answered in the preview:

1) how much is the modem?
QUOTE
Because this is a state-of-the-art modem, don’t expect the pricing, even subsidised, to resemble the prices of modems that you can buy today in the Malaysian marketplace.


2) is it unlock?
QUOTE
The modem will be subsidised in return for a contract, and will likely not be locked, as is usually the case in Malaysia.


3) when will um be selling it?
QUOTE
As for the service’s launching, it will be sometime in early 2011, as early as mid January.

Hey I've read the fair usage policy and all that.. But just to be sure, wanna ask, if i exceed the 5gb limit will i be charged? Cos i read u mobile's page on fair usage policy it stated that it can charge up to 176 bucks and stop the service and all that. Kinda blur.
*
UB68 plan = no charge after exceeding FUP quota. <-- which is why it is called "Unlimited" quota not speed

other plans = PAYU (RM0.01/KB) rate after exceeding quota (no FUP) <-- there will be SMS notifications to alert you when you reach balance 30MB and 0MB. However, maximum cap is RM176 (in case you accidentally over use)

How many times they have changed their policy already?
*
1 time only since their broadband launch in 2009. the change is just the speed throttle changed to 128kbps.

dont know the earlier broadband package.

just part of the promo. besides, the advance payments will be offset for 5 months, so you dont actually paying extra.

just a short period of contract. who knows, maybe umobile broadband is good at your area? sweat.gif

Now the U68 data allowance is unlimited? means no Quota? Or juz unlimited for a certain period?
*
yes, no data (quota) allowance. just slower speed after 5-10GB. keep on continue to use until month end and just pay flat of RM68.

It is so confused it say unlimited but it will lower the speed after 5GB which is means got quota, right?

http://www.u.com.my/broadband/plans

Wat is the speed once over the quota?
*
unlimited quota = RM68 per month flat. however FUP (fair use policy) applies at about 5GB (some user said only 10GB) which means speed throttled to 128kbps (as reported by users here earlier)
