good try.

sigh i wanna try too to test whether where i stay can use or not.. but no modem...

if only they have the 7days trial period..

Alrighty. Tried it at home in Klang.

shirley_andy, get the normal prepaid and topup enough to subscribe the plan.

if you are not satisfied with the performance, dont have to topup again. simple.


of course the 1st time "investment" is RM8 (prepaid pack) + ~RM70 (a little more than RM68 to subscribe the maximum speed/plan.

so, it is still sub-RM100 to try first.

Agreed.

I actually wanted to test out the speed at my home area and I got the prepaid pack (RM8 with RM5 credit value). I top up another RM15 so I could subscribe to the prepaid U20 plan.

It turned out really good at my place and once this is finished (only 300mb data volume), I'm gonna subscribe the U40 plan to see if 2gb is enough for me. If it is, then it's just gonna be U40 instead of U68 (unlimited).

how bout the modem? u bought urself outside?

My dad has an extra USB modem for me to use. Luckily it wasn't a locked modem.

You can always get the USB modem from any computer shop though. I don't think it should be that expensive. Should be less than RM150.

just subscribed to U68
here's my speed and ping




I did several test and feel weird that the results are different everytime..
will try gaming tonight and see whether I kene scold for bad ping or not..

Wonder if any user around Sri Petaling / BUkit Jalil / Jalan SUngai Besi?
the speed stable?
I've read through, the U68 claims to be unlimited @ 3.6mbps
but it will throttle after 5gb?
what happen after 5gb?
still able to achieve 1.0mbps at least?

throttled speed=384kbps

unlimited = no extra charges after FUP (5GB)

so there's alot of users not throttled even after reaching 5GB limit?

anyway to stop data coming in when idle? cuz I notice when connected but idle, data kept flowing in every second and this might clog up the FUP quite fast..

u cant actually "stop" any activities when connected.

most apps will try to check the Internet access for variety of purposes (e.g. antivirus to update definition, etc.)

only total disconnection is recommended if you dont want any traffic utilitizing your data quota.

oh, throttled speed at 384kbps ..
hmmm

RM68, seems like good try, since my AMAX not reverted yet :/

Guys, how do I download stuff from file sharing website with the U Mobile modem?? Megaupload, Hotfile etc..

u download as u do with other service providers. nothing special when using umobile broadband/modem.

but everyone is having same IP so it'll say download limit exceeded..
anyway I found http://megafast.info/ that helped me downloaded the things I need..

Hey guys, assuming that my MaxisBB detects HSPDA coverage as < 10%, is it safe to assume that it'll be the same for U mobile? @@

Doubt it. My area, DiGi's 3.5G signal is full while there's barely Maxis 3.5G coverage.

Oh damnit that means I gotta try each provider one by one Thanks
