I've try online games, very delay. 1/2 sec. Unless for online gaming. But overall normal usage it's fine for me.

People who subscribe to wireless broadband are mainly for 2 reasons either it is for mobility or they can't subscribe to any wired broadband service in their area. People who play online games which requires low latency will always avoid wireless broadband.

You don't have to pay anything when register. The activation and the installation fee will be charge to your bill.

If you have to be tied up for 18 months, might as well buy the modem for RM299. The ROI will be 17 months if go by the monthly rental of RM18.

Their so called free trial they will issue a cross cheque after certain time. So you still have to pay for the bill then later they refund by issuing a cheque

celcom new package:
RM999 for 6 months 3g, inclusive 3gcard. further subscription is rm99 per month

so say the card is worth rm600, so works out to be
rm66 per month for the 3G.

fine print: only for existing stimyx user only. sommore the stimyx must be unlimited ones (rm66 and above)

hannaboy, when u say p2p is not good, how bad is that? whats ur download speed?

what abt digi's? any cap on p2p? I tried the speed is around 100kbps indoors at subang parade.
Please do not double post in future - hardyboyz888

the 3g modem from maxis is zte mf600 HSPDA terminal with a battery. there is a ON/OFF/Standby switch at the back of modem.
you not able to find this modem information on the internet. this modem required a 3g sim card from maxis to enable it to working.

this modem interface with pc thru rj45 interface using cross cable (supplied). this only allow 1 pc to surf internet at a time but you may share your internet connectivity thru software that come with the windows xp.
otherwise you can buy a router to connect to the modem. this will required a straight cable instate if cross cable.

i use a linksys wrt54gs connect to zte mf600 using straight cable connect the rj45 from the modem and broadband input on the wrt54gs. the modem not required any configuration at all cause it already pre-configured or the 3g sim card already have the setting (i not sure about this). the modem will provide a ip address to your router. on the wrt54gs, just set your wireless setting and select dhcp ip from ISP.

this modem is working in 3.5g, 3g and also edge. you can check your signal or mode the current modem receive by go to the web based modem configuration by enter 192.168.0.1 to your web browser. there is also the 3g setting/internet setting page where you can modified.

the speed is rated at 300 - 330kbps at my area (kepong) and downlaod speed is stable at 40-45kbps using download manager. the upload speed is suck! if not mistake is 64kbps only.

you can use the sim card on your 3g phone but it lock for HSPDA. so you may not able to make a call on certain model of phone (i can call using se t68i but not se k800i). however, you can use dail to 3g/wap thru bluetooth. tested on nokia n70. so you may able to conect to internet using your 3g phone instate of the bulky modem. however you can receive call. the number is maxis 017.

there is a package for you to use the modem as you home phone also but have to pay certain amount of fee.... however, i not subcribe to the phone service but i can make call and receive call! i dont know how they charge me..... or give me a free phone.......
remember read the terms and condition when you apply for the service........
good luck.

u can use it any where if you want. my area got 3G signal ... then i can get @ 3xxkbps.
if your area no 3G... then the speed should be 1xxkbps (edge)

my friend use it at kota bharu connected to edge.... since there is no 3g signal

the modem support

HSPDA, 3.5G, 3G, Edge and GPRS

some questions for the pricing...

1) Can we do self-installation to save the 88 bucks? thumbup.gif
2) SIM that used more than 12 months need to be charged RM50?
3) The 017 phone line id free for 6 months, so after the period we need to pay RM15x12(total is 18-months contract) = RM180?
