celcom still got problems rite now?

Just now I'm having problem, the browser shows nothing (blank page although the loading was done) but i could connect to MSN.
Called the customer service and they said were having problems with their 3G or something but now i can surf the web like normal again, seems like the issue has been resolved.

what should i prepare to cancel my celcom broadband? do i need to return the modem?

Nothing to prepare, just bring along your IC.
If you havent use the modem for more than a year then you have to return it to them.

Well annoying but not really a big problem since you don't have to unplug the usb and plug in again, just press connect and disconnect. Can be quite annoying at times. tongue.gif

My experience :
before i upgraded to D98 from D68, i only get around 5-15kb, nearly everyday i call them to complaint, i thought my pc is infected by virus, after i upgrade to D98, suddenly really fast, the internet idle is quite annoying but now i can watch youtube without waiting 15 minute just want to watch 10 minutes video  rclxm9.gif
But i have to say this, maxis broadband really fast compare to celcom, no doubt.

hope celcom continue to upgrade their service, if not i will call them to complaint more sweat.gif
*
You were a maxis user before? why using celcom now?

no choice. e220 modem can't choose between HSDPA and UMTS (both are considered 3G). need to select GPRS only from the menu. then it can jump to EDGE network (EDGE is classified under GPRS?)
*
Both almost the same. Equally slow...
EDGE is better than GPRS though..

Previously my connection keep on changing to EDGE and finally I figured out what's wrong. In the option of "Network" I realised mine was 3G PREFERED, changed to 3G ONLY and the problem is solved.

Even so, I try to refrain from watching Youtube because the streaming speed is just too "fast". Surfing the net is ok thou...and by the way whether it's morning or night for me the speed is still more or less the same, probably close to zero people is using celcom around my area..

Penang island isn't small and perhaps your area is far from the signal tower and thus connection isn't that good as you thought. Frequent DC and re-dialing is seriously a very common problem for most of us (celcom user).

Uncap day = billing date. The day your usage will be reset; regain back 5 GB and your subscribed speed (if you're capped).

i.e. Your billing date is on the 20th of every month. If you're capped before 20th (use more than 5GB), let say on August 15, you will get back your subscribed speed (and new 5 GB) on the August 20<- your billing date  smile.gif

Ah, icic..thank you for the explanation rclxms.gif

Hi guys. I just downgraded my Celcom broadband from RM 68 to RM 48 package with limited 1GB only. Why? Coverage too bad la. Better use the extra RM 20 for something else smile.gif
*
Better terminate the service and look for something that provide a better coverage in your area.. tongue.gif
