Mine too, I am so frustrated directly file a complaint to SKMM

Using my 384kbps is even more stable and consistent

They should be on the same chipset cuz I saw some unlocked B2000s supporting LTE 100Mbps downloads.. hmm..
*
Actually LTE chipset on LTE device are the same by Qualcomm right now nod.gif

No mather B593 or E398 they are running on the same chip.

But B593 larger PCB and better heat allow higher stability compared to conventional 3G modem. And bigger antenna allow better signal.

Eg : Yes Go dongle VS Yes Zoom. The improvement is obvious

If you guys aim for B593, wait for 2013 Maxis will launch it, avoid wasting the money now icon_idea.gif

If 3MBps I don't mind. That's 24Mbps.laugh.gif
Don't worry I know what you meant. tongue.gif
That's the whole reason why I have the intention to sell off my E398 and one extra panel. It doesn't serve much purpose to me. laugh.gif
*
Just keep those that works best for you tongue.gif

E398 is definitely more stable than MF680 unless you cool your MF680 too.

Nah, for the whole night my E398 only got 5Mbps max. I got so fed up with it and changed to MF680 and immediately my speed straight shot up to 11Mbps. Coincidence? I don't know.
Yes stable in obtaining slow speed lo. laugh.gif

No cooling was done and actually oh E398 is equivalent hot as well.
*
It works differently depends on location I can say hmm.gif
Some got MF680 working some may not whistling.gif

I tried more than 5 MF680 and killed 2 by firmware, none of them ever works at my location even with my Umobile.
That's why I always prefer E372 when E398 not here.

what a bad news, somehow i read E398 hot outside, cool inside icon_idea.gif

I will do a complete review once I get my Camera back nod.gif

MF680 is a whole hot brick.
E372 cold outside hot inside doh.gif

E398 come with plenty of thermal tape inside to encourage heat dissipation.
Until now it is the only LTE got this feature.
Every LTE chip is hot (320U / MF820) doh.gif

Back to square, I don't mind spending few hundreds for my modem or router provided the ISP deserves for such devices.
If not, I better use the money to makan. whistling.gif I get high speed in office all the time, more than 30Mbps, going back to my PJ house is just for downloads and surfing.
Even that Maxis fails to fulfill my requests. sleep.gif
*
If I am honest, at my location using whatever modem on Maxis is plain useless, about the same speed on all DC capable modem, just stability differs

My test hardware is always Umobile which really challenge the ability of modem. 30mbps++ biggrin.gif

Kinda regretted subscribing to Maxis doh.gif

Its not worth to buy that now.

The price is too expensive now, better wait when Maxis launch and you will get a nice deal brows.gif

thanks chuahcs79

do you know any good 3G router which is stable? I need it to set up a remote cctv in place where TM is not available.
*
First you need private IP to be enabled nod.gif

Second you need a rock solid stable modem, E372 is recommended

As for 3G router, TP-LINK MR3420 is affordable yet one of the most stable that always reconnect if dropped.
Stock firmware is recommended, as OpenWRT might crash or fail to reconnect sometime.

public ip or private ip? what's the different between openwrt and stock firmware? only maxis is using private ip right? the modem set to DMZ or Port forwarding?
*
Mistake public IP doh.gif

OpenWRT more advanced on feature and more consistent WiFi + 3G but for the long run I suggest stock firmware.

Do nothing with modem while just setup port forwarding on router.

OpenWRT seem more stable in the short run, performance wise, less issue .

Yes, but unless you using a solid OpenWRT build it may crashes in the long run.

Since no one there to reset the whole setup if anything happen. smile.gif
