QUOTE(lilyth @ May 28 2012, 07:40 PM) Guys, Maxis I have ipad 2 with 3g but never try for 3g. Im looking fo prepaid Data plans for ipad. Which plan and telco can offer me with good signal, speed and cheap. Please recommend to me. Me at Kuantan anyway.  Maxis & Celcom are going to launch New iPad data plan with contract on 22 June next week i guess  For those who are not yet a New iPad owner, and feel like to be subsidize by these Telco, can hold force until next week This post has been edited by christcwl9: Jun 16 2012, 10:45 AM |

QUOTE(ymir06kw @ Jul 12 2012, 07:28 PM) Really? Any limitation to that (Speed reduced during peak time etc.)? FIrstly, u MUST be a Maxis One Club member then only u can apply for this.No speed reduced during peak hour. Your speed will only be capped after you exceed the quota. |

No jailbreak, I'll recheck for the Personal Hotspot fuction. Hmm possible Maxis disable the features? Make sure you have the PRL version is 12.1 instead of 12.0 After update, reboot ur iPad |

QUOTE(krayz_underground @ Sep 6 2012, 08:29 PM) Mine is RM 18 monthly, 1 GB Quota. I called Maxis CS they said it's uncapped speed. Wow ... The MOC offer ? I tot that 1 is capped at 7.2Mbps also ? I called twice..  btw i just checked in Maxis site and it is clearly stated there the speed is uncapped now But i found this statement *Speed is on a best effort basis; up to 7.2 Mbps. Speed depends on factors such as device capability,location, distance from communications towers and number of simultaneous users. source http://www.maxis.com.my/personal/broadband/tss/index.asp |

QUOTE(krayz_underground @ Sep 7 2012, 08:54 AM) Yes speed depends on device capability. So the new iPad capable of how much speed actually? Using the same sim at the same location? Your broadband is to put micro sim instaed of the normal sim? Weird that I manage to get 20 mbps on broadband modem using the same sim but on new iPad only manage to get 7 mbps max.. I think this new iPad can easily support over 10 Mbps as posted by some1 before a stunning 20mbps from umobile using the new iPad |
