Wow. I only surf maximum of 3 hours only per day unless i have good internet speed then i might take more time to find some other stuff.

I'm terminating my Umobile if things doesn't get better here in Ipoh.

My latest interest will be Maxis Broadband.
Due to the overwhelming jump to Umobile in Ipoh, Maxis network has now become very pleasantly good.They even have HSUPA in Ipoh now.

My speedtest with Maxis gives around 4mbps download and my uploads can reach 800kbps-1mbps.

It is never good to follow the crowd.
*
Indeed. It is just like trying to get water in a crowd. More people using the less share we get.

Try out the prepaid for sometime first. icon_rolleyes.gif

Added on December 7, 2010, 1:25 pmHad to agreed that throttling to 128kbps was not great. But then again, we hear people doing 60gb per month.

Where you heard from about the people using the 60GB per month?

QUOTE(eXPeri3nc3 @ Dec 7 2010, 01:31 PM)
CS I dunno. But Level 1 called me. Still teh same
Mine after 4am can reach 1Mbps

But they say here no congestion. I also wtf.

I am suspecting they throttling HTTP traffic port 80.

Cos with torrent I hit 1Mbps

I surf youtube forums everything capped at 40kbps constant no more no less. Seems very familiar.

Last time, i actually heard people said that U mobile download is the best, but dunno why streaming youtube always laggy. rclxub.gif

speedtest is a peak/constant download speed.

regular surfing has fluctuating speed, depends on the website's location, # of hops, routing, etc. etc.

you dont get max 2.0mbps whenever you surf websites.
to test the maximum speed, download large file and observe the speed. you can also try download from RS, Hotfile, Megaupload, Megashare too.
*
I prefer using the download manager with the accelerator function. That is the best.

Cool, but what are the average download speeds you're getting? I know this is really subjective and it's based on location, congestion, the download servers, etc. but I'd like some sort of baseline on what kind of download speeds I can expect.

I downloaded Opera without any download managers - averaged about 30-40kBps. Is that normal?  blink.gif
*
Currently, i am outside the U mobile 3G coverage, so i cannot test for you. Which package you subscribe to? It seems to be quite slow.

The Speedtest on the U Mobile site shows me about 2.2mbps - but real world usage lingers around the 30-40kBytes/s range. I tried MDMA to check my assigned profile, but unfortunately they gave me the dinky ZTE modem so  can't verify my profile.

Try to use the free Download Accelerator Plus manager.

It boost my friend's Maxis broadband speed from 20kb/s to 300kb/s, but remember about the usage quota ya.

if speedtest shows 2.2 means quite ok what..
then the reason for slow download is the origin of the file itself..

Sometime for the broadband cases, it also depend on your location.

If i do not download from the file sharing site, i use the DAP and it is real fast. biggrin.gif

It is no more the best and most areas will only provide you 3.6mbps at most.
With the overheads your best average speed during the most non peak hours will only get you around 2.6mbps.

Fast meh?
*
If complain would they improve instantly?

I guess have to wait them to upgrade their facility, so i prefer to use the prepaid now.

one lucky user here, never been throttled for 2 months, and been using about 100GB for these past two month and still downloading tongue.gif
BUT, the problems i've always encountered is frequent disconnection during night, about 5-7 times. this is price i've to pay for unlimited quota i guess  cool2.gif

hi, i never use broadband before. im confused which to subscribe, U40 or U68? buying for laptop use to search academic stuff... i do know the data allowance thingy, but i dont know whether 2GB is sufficient enough for me. I just use to google some info/ download some document, gtalk with friends, and occasionally youtube (1 week 1 streaming video? if needed for seacrhing info). Online time will be +- 5 hours/day. I do not download any song, software, video, drama or movie. I dont really mind bout the speed.

If 2Gb is sufficient, i can save money by just subscribing U40.
I need some advice.
*
I think it is advisable for you to go for the U68, unless you can reduce your gtalk with friends significantly and reduce the surfing time to 2 hours like that.

I am not sure about gtalk, but last time when i check about skype; it uses about 8kb/s when i am engaged in the internet calling.

Happy Surfing.

I only use it on my smartphones and ipad.

It's for mobile internet use only.

You don't torrent or do DDLs with mobile internet devices such as those.
I'm very sure you don't do torrenting or DDL with you iPAD would you?

Only restricted to casual browsing, IM, feed updates and app downloads/update.
On average, no more than 300mb per week.

That's just about 1GB per month.

Yes plan is actually quite logic. In comparison, I got the Maxis weekly broadband for RM25 which comes with a 7 days usage.Throughout the week, I only managed 300mb with all my smartphone updates and all. 2GB-0.3GB...My 1.7GB all went to waste upon expiration.

FYI. 1GB only cost you RM20 per month with current Yes promotion.

You'll get RM10 x 10 months promotion if you sign up now.
Your minimum commitment is RM30 per month but with the rebate of RM10 you pay only RM20 for the next 10 months.

You can use it with your ipad or smartphone? How? I tot it is sim less. shocking.gif

If you don't want to reply here coz it is off topic, you can PM me.
