maxis 3g unlimited package

unlimited package means the 3g package offered for phone?
the RM120/month package?

guys, please differentiate between maxis 3g unlimited and maxis 3g WBB

maxis 3g unlimited:
1. RM120/month
2. use your phone as modem
3. unlimited

maxis 3g WBB:
1. RM68/month
2. a HSDPA-supported modem
3. 3gb/month

Spot on.

A little addendum to maxis 3g unlimited, point 2:

Most people (for now) use a HSDPA/UMTS/EDGE/GPRS data card to connect when doing data transfers.  Some claim they get better speeds this way.
*
exactly, i saw my cousin-in-law doing this before they introduced 3g WBB
he bought the data card for RM1k
really crazy, man
the signal and speed is not really satisfying
all the time, it shows EDGE (2.5g) speed if inside the house

well, that's for laptop... but what about desktop computers?
they don't release any PCI card for desktops sad.gif

well, en_feruz, your quote makes sense
but people like me have no choice but to go mobile on desktop PCs because i've a fussy landlord who stays together with me
no internet, no over-use electricity
right now, i'm using digi edge as my primary connection
darn!

dunno la..
the seller said celcom need around 3 days.
but maxis & digi can get in a few hours.

i paid deposit rm120 (correct amount rite? hope i'm not conned blush.gif coz i cant find the deposit amount anywhere.
btw, anyone know what is the minimum contract with celcom 3g data plan? the guy said 1 year
*
usually the contract is 1 year
so you're going to put in desktop?
maybe we should open a celcom thread and talk about it

i dont have a desktop.
will put in my notebook.

so let say, it turns bad.
bad perfomance, cant torrent etc (i hope not sweat.gif )
if i dont want to continue the subscription, consider my deposit burn la rite?
nothing else?

i just want to torrent.
i'm pretty confident celcom 3g can as my customer reported (& quite fast too drool.gif )
if cant torrent, rm120/month is not worth it for me.
*
i see
bad or not, we all don't know
it's all depends on location and luck
even if you're not satisfied, you've to pay for the remaining months of your contract

i guess HSDPA/3g doesn't forbid you to p2p/BT
just like maxis 3g
RM120/month is definitely worth it if good coverage and fast
i'll probably get one if sounds good because i'm still waiting for the arrival from tenaga's broadband
now i'm stucked at my digi edge connecting via my phone with dial up speed sad.gif

i wonder why does maxis limited only to 3gig download ? any idea
*
because they don't encourage hardcore p2p to congest their network
i asked the promoter at maxis when i sign up that day
she said 3gb is more than enough for you UNLESS you're doing heavy downloading

i've been on maxis broadband 384kbps package for almost 2 weeks now. well, the signal is strong if i put it near walls,windows that facing outside of my 6th floor apartment. i seldom surf at day but at night, full speed 384kbps is easy to achieve by torrenting. im testing the data limit n now just passing 4.1GB n i see nothing happen yet.

eone, im leaving nearby subang airport.just make sure u got the 3G signal clearly. that's all. For those who is sure their high rise apartment can get the signal but afraid maxis wil a fuss of it, just register your address to someone else address. i register it to my parent house in gombak:P

you can't because they'll come over to fix
so they need to know your location

That's why they can afford to offer high speed because of the limit. You will achieve the limit real fast.

maxis is too good at marketing sad.gif

youtube a while only, max bandwidth reach
