QUOTE(acat @ Aug 10 2010, 03:53 PM) actually speedtest is not that reliable. although im getting 'superb result' on speedtest, but the real speed can be seen when u download something. the highest download speed i've got so far is 400kbps++. never reach 500-600kbps as speedtest shows  local speedtest isnt all that accurate. look at unifi. local speedtest imba fast but just a SG speedtest reduce by alot

guys/gals, kyl3 is right. Any unlocked 3G model will work with umobile broadband.

yeah, celcom vodafone also can. for maximum performance, use any unlocked modem that can support HSPA up to 7.2Mbps speed.

if u buy prepaid from their centre at timesquare, they will register immediately and ready for use in around 5-10minutes (if they do that right away).
then u just need to topup enough to subscribe any plans (rm6 to rm68).

This service very very suck!!!!!!!
I just paid RM68 few day ago since they stated "unlimited", I'm RS premium user too, the download speed quiet satisfied...
but today... suck!! they limited my bandwidth to 512kbps!!!!
What the point i paid so much as stated in what they offer?? This is ridiculous!!!! Will never never use UMobile again!!!!

read post #1 about what the "unlimited" means. technically, it is 5GB with FUP. But users are getting 15-20GB quota before the throttling kicks in.
no service is truly unlimited. try using digi/maxis/celcom/p1wimax. all got FUP.
