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)

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 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!!!!

yeah, that applicable to other broadbands too. weekend=user spend their time at home=network congested 
but still, UM can give me decent speed even in weekend. this cant be practiced to other network as they got pretty much users. so lets enjoy the speed while we can 

about the cap, im not really sure how they cap users. it seems they very generous when it comes to quota. i've read somewhere in um website, u actually can call customer service to give u more quota after urs been capped. still up to their consideration whether to give u 'extra quota', though 

dont expect anything higher for upload.

it's a network limitation. umobile is on hi-speed downlink packet access (hsdpa) only.

i used tat modem on my maxis and this was my test result



imagine how much i can DL if i am in the mood to do it

This is what I don't get when people complain about 5GB quota. As you mentioned, not like there's any other telcos that are offering any better..

ssup guys. just bought my u68 plan yesterday, and tested the speed at usj17 subang jaya. the speed shown is only 0.38mb down and 0.05 mb up, is there any way to improve the connection, been trying a few spots in my house, but it show the same results. or is it because now is kinda like the peak time of the day?

agreed..im also using YES 4G ,streaming one episode of drama series with medium quality already gone 300mb ++...but the speed is awesome..
you didnt noticed already using up 1gb data when streaming youtube..HD playback very smooth..

and YES 4G modem far more cheaper..only the data usage are freaking expensive...

YES 4G will introduce postpaid plans tomorrow...rumors rm68 for 3.5gb data...dont know their 10gb data price..

we'll see who will provide better plans for ultra hi speed broadband.

My speed capped after i used 4.5GB this month...
