For the first time in my life, I got under 100ms ping as well as over 5 Mbps download speed & over 1 Mbps upload speed on a 3G mobile broadband. This 3.75G is really impressive, kudos to UMobile & hope will retain such service speed for some time.

U Mobile service has been quite inconsistent in Subang Jaya area lately...

3.75G ? Do you mean HSPA+

Well this is not good... around USJ 6 area.

Funnily enough, my phone, which is using also U Mobile (500MB/RM28), can get up to 1.8Mbps with ease.

Problem with modem?

EDIT: Apparently not a problem with the modem. More like SIM card problem or account problem. I took the SIM card out and put it in my phone. Still the same crappy speed.

Can anyone go to their U Mobile Online Portal and under Account Information, does it state UB USIM plan?

Still the same for me.

any u28 unlimited internet user here ?

i facing problem that when i turn off my 3G service .. it will switch to celcom network automatically ... but when i turn 3G on again it won't auto connect me back to umobile .. i have to do it manually .. i am iphone user ...

any kind souls can guide me on this ?

Usually once i changed back to 3G for my Nokia phones, it would automatically connects me to the UM 3G network. Unless I am not in the UM 3G coverage.

Have you tried to manually connect back to the U mobile network?

in johor my area veri slow....when will they expend their 3g coverage area???

Johor what area la? Kota Tinggi? Tongkang Pecah? Labis? Lenek?

I'm using Android. And yes, when switch back to 3G it will not automatically go back to 3G. You have 2 options:

1. Wait for like half an hour and it will turn to 3G.
2. Switch on Airplane Mode and switch it off again. It will refresh the network and you will have 3G back.

My ping is good but my download speed is terrible. I suspect U Mobile is throttling my speed. Btw, U Mobile customer service is just as bad as any customer service you'd expect in Malaysia. Damn.

haiz .. it's suck ... have to change everytime.
btw your airplane method works but too annoying have to repeat it everytime.

my conclusion is Umobile can't live when out of 3G coverage . your smartphone 3G has to on all the time ... but how long can your phone battery sustain with 3G on

?? Iphone cannot off data network meh? my android can off data network as i always connect to 3g network, just enable back data network when want online and off to save battery when not online

when off data, 3g just use for sms and voice

these few days UM sucks, sometimes speed cannot move even connected

just on 3g mode without using it,will not affect to ure battery life ...only continuously using of data,sms ,call ,wifi or games will drained ur battery faster ....u just off the packet data option if dont want to use the data connection...i think all latest phone got this function..my crappy samsung bada phone got this function and also no problem auto changed the network mode...sometime takes 2 or 3 minutes only ...

also i still can surfing,call n sms when roaming to celcom edge mode...no issue when out of 3g coverage...
