I worked around the problem by using my primary SIM in the LTE modem, routing calls/text to the second SIM, which I now use in my non-LTE phone. Hopefully by the time I upgrade to an LTE phone, Maxis will have solved it

Lumia 1020 , go get it now

did maxis LTE support for prepaid user now ?

nope. not yet launch

   
when will launch o?

Hmm the Maxis service center said that it has quota sharing. I guess it will be confirmed when I get the bill at the end of the month. Hopefully no bill shock

I'll PM you when I get home.

Can "see" Maxis LTE 1800MHz signal at Sg Ara, Penang.
But only can see... can't register on the network...

Out of range, probably maintenance or still testing.

BTW that's great, seem Maxis finally moving to residential area

good la can see now...soon can feel already.... my area cant "see".... thats why i stick to umobile first. kakaka

seriously, my living place, U Mobile HSPA+ is far better than Maxis DC-HSPA+ in my living place, although both telco signal RSSI is similar, around -95dBm.
U Mobile smooth and steady, ping stable, speed consistent.
Maxis always DC, changing cell id loss ping packets, speed soow and not consistent.

Waiting for Maxis LTE up...

Why Telcos don't upgrade to LTE-A once and for all?

TM plans to use its 800MHz spectrum as its LTE frequency band and more importantly, it aims to have 100,000 users on its wireless LTE network by 2014 and more than one million by 2017.

Zamzam says a fixed line network will provide consumers with pipes to utilise heavy content and applications at home or at the office.

“Meanwhile, wireless services provide consumers the flexibility to access broadband on the go.

In fact, by increasing the rate of broadband penetration in the country, all providers stand to gain bigger shares from the larger pie.

“Hence, there is a place for fixed broadband and mobile broadband in every customer needs.

“Fixed broadband provides better quality of experience as demonstrated now by UniFi but for broadband access whilst on the move, customers can be served by mobile broadband.”

He says the wireless players that are rolling out their 4G networks are not without their own set of challenges, which he identified as limited capacity due to tremendous growth in data and Internet traffic.

He says as operators pump up the speed at the air interface they need to start paying attention to backhaul to make sure the rest of the network can keep up.
