when on um3g, everything works perfect just like it should.. even when signal is low.. but when i'm roaming on celcom, at first it can connect and later after that, it will disconnect and failed to connect for around 20 minutes.. then after that it can reconnect again.. did u ever experience this?

it is very annoying.. especially when i'm chatting and suddenly goes off and i have to wait for 20 minutes.. I don't think its my area though coz I'm in Bandar Baru Nilai and recently, i went to jb and preferred to stay on celcom network coz can save battery life.. it happened again.. so its not because of my area..

U're not alone.
Sometimes I even can't get EDGE connect when roaming,sometimes no problems.Don't know what happen in celcom roaming network.And previously my phone will show a small 'R' when roaming on celcom network,but recently I found that under some Celcom network,the little 'R' disappears.

That means it is the network at fault.. I thought its my phone coz no one raise this issue here.. I reformatted my phone and still the same.. what do u do if it failed to connect? In many occasions, I restarted my phone, go offline and online again, but still cant connect.. The only solution is to wait

I never count how long the connection could be back,actually it will get connection automatically suddenly without any reboot.weird...I think maybe a few cell towers can't handle the data roaming well so that sometimes it may wrongly reject the data roaming request.

I need the data roaming to be consistently working coz my area here in nilai, the um3g is very weak.. Gotta lodge a complain to u mobile.. But so far only I and you have this problem.. maybe it is our phones?

I don't think so.I'm using Nexus One and I tried it on Nokia 5800 and iPhone4 to,also having the same issue.I think in KL,the 3G coverage is quite ok and so not so many ppl are complaining on it.

ya right.. Maybe.. Anyway, going to complain to u mobile.. Hope they resolve this matter.. Thanks for sharing btw

it's all right.Hopefully umobile will do some positive movements after ur complaint.

yes.. i truly hope so..

Hello, I want to ask
For the rm28 package, can we use the hp to act as modem for laptop? What about the prepaid broadband for laptop?

You can use ur hp act as modem of laptop or other devices by tethering after you subscribe RM28 plan,it's including 100mins local talking time,30 local sms and 500MB data volumn(over the limit will cut the speed to 64kbps without extra charge).

So depending on how you want to use it.For example,you only wanna a sim card for mobile data service and you're willing to use it quite frequently or with large usage,I think a prepaid broadband plan (UB40/UB68 for 2GB/5GB) will fit your needs.

If you think 500mb is enough,then just go ahead to try it first and utilise the free credits.

i notice this too during my trip at penang. It's full bar on 2G network and then a while it show no line at all.
while in 3G area in penang then this doesn't happen at all.
and this happen intermittently..that prevent me to port to umobile..and only using umobile as secondary line.
hmmmm..hope someone wil complain to umobile..

is been quite a while happening in penang, they actually put coverages in U mobile websites then they remove it, and the U mobile service centre in penanag @ queensbay mall even say they dont dare to encourages people suscribe to u broadband and they say is better to suscribe to u mobile internet plan,.. and i did try out but U mobile network in penang is not really stable even in 42MBps area,... same thing happen like you guys,.

i wish they will increase quota to 10GB 15GB

price also increase ...


so whether put the sim in 3g dongle or in phone only or in phone work as modem through usb to pc, the 500MB quota still apply right?

Yes, it's regardless of which method you use to get connected.

finger cross that they will improve time to time
kinda sick of maxis charges

hi all, i m in puchong kinrara area, UM courage good in this area ?
also, if i wanna try the prepaid UM, mean i need to get the modem myself right?
where can i apply in puchong? IOI? or i must go timesquare etc to apply?
sorry lots of question.

UM is improving the coverage from time to time,so you'd better to buy a prepaid sim to try it out by yourself.
If you subscribe UB40 or UB60 with 2GB or 5G usage,you could get a free modem supporting up to 7.2mbps.

You could get all immediately in the nearest service center.

which center have mifi modem ?? i check with 1u and times square also out of stock
