Hi,  experience something weird.  Speeds quite ok but seems there's a lot of micro blackholes.

For example, was in Puchong (LDP) and the speeds were kinda ok (about 1 - 3 Mbps - Speedtest) in front of IOI Boulevard.  However, when I met with my friend in Chatime IOI Boulevard, it seems that there was full 3G bars but was unable to get any data.  Tried moving to maxis (choosing the umobile network instead of the umobile 3G) but was unable to connect (it will connect then disconnect) as well as not having data as well.  My friend's maxis had a about 1 - 2 Mbps and was laughing at me.

I also experience the same blackhole in KFC Tesco at the Curve.  Tried the same and was unable to get any data while was waiting in line for KFC.

Still overall quite good as I've been trying it around and seems to be getting average about 3 - 5 Mbps and an occasional 7 - 8 Mbps.  I tried at LDP (Sunway), Penchala Link (near the toll), The Curve Parking lot, Mont Kiara, Mont Kiara Flyover (Near INTAN), Damansara Perdana, Jalan Ampang (Temple), Chow Kit (in front of IMR).

I am using an iPhone 4S which is better than my Digi which was getting capped at about 0.99Mbps all the time.

Waiting to port Hehe...

What's the procedure / testing to know that you're on Maxis?  Also do we need to set data roaming [on] to get Maxis's data (normally I turn it off to prevent accidental overseas charges).

Hehe...very excited in getting 7-8 Mbps on my mobile phone and is comparable to the YES.my that I'm getting 15Mbps in KLCC area (but at least only one device to manage).

i couldn't find it in umobile FAQ... care to provide the link...?
meaning my free calls & sms also can be used in SG w/out any charges ?
*
no free call n free data during roaming. the promo is about paying local fees during roaming in SG.

Hmm, feels like I'm noticing some problems, my phone doesn't pickup any phone calls when being called, like only 1 out of 10 calls can be picked up. Never had any problem before with other provider.  doh.gif


Added on November 21, 2012, 5:13 am..okay. This is not fun, I'm missing calls whole day today. No problem with internet though. Should I contact umobile for this issue?

hi guys, wanna ask something... currently I'm on U28 plan, any of you experiencing any problem with receiving international sms? Ever since i switched to UMobile, i cant receive my company's VPN token anymore, not sure why..

Also, the partnership domestic roaming with Maxis, it's automatic, or is there any settings to enable it? Kinda funny, last week i went genting, i get only 2G, not even 2.5G, but a friend of mine says genting, maxis has 3G there

just check u mobile website for actual maxis 3g roaming location tongue.gif

If i'm not mistaken, if you are out of coverage of umobile, you are only allow roaming to maxis 2g.

2g can roam anytime but not 3g. 3g is like wad u said.
