digilife... if we din topup our umobile after it's validity date is over ar... how long still can it last ar? it's a prepaid btw...

90 days of passive validity

alrite... tq...

this my maxis speed, via the UM bundled ZTE MF190 modem



and the quota is totally unlimited , unmetered ( the dis-continue package )

I am about ready to dump UMBB already....service is very, very bad...

I have just subscribe to UM MB40 prepaid plan few days ago. My location is in Desa Park City. I'm using the bb plan on my Samsung Tab2. However, I am not able to use the bb service at all. Not even open up google home page. The signal I have on the Tab is constantly switching between H and 3G where H is more prominent. I have already selected WCDMA only on the tab.

So I called UM CS and they told me I have to be in 3G area and my Tab showing 3G signal then I can use the service, because MB40 plan is for 3G coverage only, if H then cannot use.

Any pointers?

Wow, that is really good! Is that the Maxis home broadband or mobile broadband package?

And surprisingly u got good speed with P1. I've heard so many horror stories about P1.

this is the maxis bb tat i am using

btw, i still use my DiGi Prepaid Internet, Quota 3GB, Max speed 384kbps upload and download, Sim pack at rm25 (preloaded with 5 days of internet access) and if u topup a rm100 in one interval you get access of 100 days , meaning a ringgit a day ( for my Xoom and Ipad )



speed not very fast but atleast its much better than UM now, if u guys are on UM Prepaid BB, just stop it for a month or two till it improves and it is micro sim friendly too

H is 3G
E is GPRS


H stands for HSPA which is faster than UMTS.

I am connected to U Mobile Broadband on HSPA aka H.

I think the CS does not know squat. It's UM that's having problem. My area exactly the same symptom - before they upgraded to HSPA, everything was fine and dandy except for the upload speed which was slow at 56Kbps. WHen they upgraded the coverage of my area, it stays persistently at H (instead of just when there is active data transfer) and with that came inconsistent connection - frequent DC at one time, then no data transfer even though connected.

Guys, I think UM is pretty slow and unresponsive. We have to do something about this. Can you guys report your case to UM, get a case number, and if there is no change or update after a week, I plan to have a mass walk-in of all of us into UM to complain at thei HQ in BTS.

Anyone game?

these are the signals i saw on my droid and bb before

Signed up for their RM28 mobile internet almost 3 weeks ago, been using it on my android phone without problem.. until last Saturday I found myself couldn't access apps (that requires a google acct, e.g. youtube, facebook) anymore. 3G was on and no prob if using browser, but it just won't allow me to access those apps anymore. This is the error i received: "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server".

Thought it's my phone/android problem so I tried various methods including removing Sim card and putting it back again, even performed a factory reset!

It's the same.. so changed the Sim card to Maxis and the problem just disappeared! I managed to add my google acct and as thought I could change back to using Umobile sim card, the problem just emerged again.. now i'm pretty much confirmed it's Umobile causing this problem!

I spent few 4 good days figuring all kinds of workaround including a factory reset only to find out that it's all a waste of time! Trying to call Umobile customer service for days but no one's answering.

Now, what should i do? Switch to Digi? or keep trying until someone answers my call... Anyone here has the same kind of experience with Umobile?

so far, 64kbps s smooth in bandar sunway n half way to genting.
