I'm using this since my area has no fixed line yet, BT speed is fluctuating between 12kB/s to 36kB/s. Quite disappointing though but it's better than having no internet access.

wah maxis really throttle you after 3G limit..

3G limit is really not enough for a normal user.

20 G will be a more reasonable cap. hhmmm... i think this issue will discourage heavy users to subscribe to maxis 3G network. but then again, this is what they want isnt it?
*
Maxis assumes that all their subscribers are either little kids or old people? 3G limit per month is seriosuly not enought even for non-BT-ers.

QUOTE(David83 @ Dec 19 2006, 11:30 PM)
So, after surpassed? They suspended your account? Or charged you seperately?
*
They throttled down the speed to a very low speed, making downloading stuffs impossible and slow loading of pages. For separate charges, I'm not sure since I'm still in trial period.

QUOTE(lj0000 @ Dec 20 2006, 01:19 AM)
opps. its zte. not huawei.

blaxez: how did u know u surpassed 3gb? how much p2p did u downloaded? according to the agents, they oni measure the p2p volume not to exceed 3gb. normal surfing should be normal.
*
They measured the TOTAL bandwidth used including download and upload dude. I've checked my downloads folder and it's just merely 2.58GB of data there. I've used up the 3GB limit in less than 2 days, darn..

QUOTE(wufei @ Dec 20 2006, 09:28 AM)
can u  guys confirm is throttle bbefore posting? Make everybody suspended only.

I think today the line is not that good only.

Can everyone confirm this?
*
Just try it out for yourself if you can't take others' words, moreover it's a free trial, no harm giving it a shot.

I would like to know how can we return the modem to Maxis and terminate the wireless broadband? Just bring the whole thing back to maxis service center?
*
I was thinking of doing that too, just that I wonder do we need to pay the modem rental charges or not..

my 3G unlimited access RM120... the direct download can only go up maximum 55kbps.. is this normal or whut?
*
I can hit 95kB/s down when there's HSDPA signal available, I guess that's the limit you can hit with the 3G unlimited access package.

of course it is abnormal
lower than dial up??

*
it should be denoted with a B, kb = kilobits and kB = kilobyte

yea my direct download from http/ftp maximum speed is only 55kbps
do maxis limit it to that speed?

im not sure my signal is strong or not... my hp show the signal bar is full, and maxis website say my area have 3G (so do the hp show 3G icon)
*
Having 3G (UMTS) signal doesn't mean you can get HSDPA signal though...

Using router in maxis modem is almost impossible. Maybe there is someone more brilliant can think of a way to do it. Please brainstorm
*
Why not? I'm using the modem with my Linksys WRT54G router smile.gif

Please help.

What is your setting? Dynamic or PPPOE?
What you punch in for login password if PPPOE

Can you PM me what is the IP you use for router and so on?

Your help will be very appriciated

You just need to set the connection type to "Automatic Configuration - DHCP" instead of PPPOE. Btw, I'm using the DD-WRT firmware

Come on its just a test.

BTW its only 2 days old.

If they cut off my line i still can demand refund because I have 30 days gurantee refund.

Until now, satisfied with the performance.

If they dont kacau me with the 3Gb limit, I will continue support them.
*
Hmm, how much you've paid to maxis?

thank for the info shakehead.gif
almost 2 months? wub.gif
so, in my case, i applied on 17/3/07, then only can get the technician to install around 17/5/07? vmad.gif  mad.gif  Still have to wait 2 to 3 weeks? vmad.gif

The word 'install' should be replaced by 'deliver' instead, since the 'installer' virtually don't need to set up anything except for some hardware testing and software configurations. tongue.gif
