For people whose internet usage is restricted to mainly porn downloading, 30G is definitely not enough.

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.

I have signed up for Maxis wireless broadband during the road show at Gurney Plaza in Penang. Will get the modem on next Monday. Let's see how will the connection be.

I have just got my modem 30 minutes ago. Now am using it. Speed is nowhere near streamyx. Hotspot at Starbucks beats it flat. But anyway, still have to monitor for a while.

DC every 5 to 10 min is not as bad as mine. I experienced dc every 5 to 10 seconds.
- Press connect button and wait
- Once connected, switch to yahoo
- click on yahoo mail
- key in user name and password
- wait.... ERROR
- check back system...kiong kan! dc liao!!

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?

Because I don't want to pay for the voice call, which was forced upon me when I signed up.

The dc problem seems to have solved today. smooth surfing, downloading porn speed is ok.

I've just called 1 800 82 2000 and have my voice-call and itemized billing canceled. So I only pay RM68.75 (tax included) per month from now on.

Just call to verify yourself.

I gave all 6 questions "unsatisfied" for the survey when they called this morning.

My connection has been dc every 10 to 20 seconds lately. Maxis WBB sucks hard from day to day.

Yesterday, the connection at George Town, Penang isalnd was too slow that you practically could not access any site.

Don't sign up Maxis WB. It is not worth it.

What happened to maxis? I was unable to access any site from 21:00 until 23:20 this evening, eventhough the modem page show I am connected on HSDPA!!

My Maxis WBB is at crawling speed every evening lately, It's slower than dial-up. Has any body experienced this? I am in Penang.

This is my speed test. Tested in George Town, Penang, very strong signal.




And of course, you call this broadband....
