Hey guys, anyone knows how to connect to 3G and not 3.5G? Because I found that 3G more stable than 3.5G during some hours like 10pm.... it's even slower than 3G during that period.

get a 3G only fone and use it as modem
example
SE k530

Oh well that would be wasting more money... I guess I found a solution, but it's very very complex and I'm not sure whether it works.

use 3g usb modem..

Have to buy

The speed is too awesome and I have finished downloading everything. Youtube and online video streaming is not a problem...

My only issue is I do not have anything else to download...

I think I'm facing the same problem

My only issue is I do not have anything else to download...

do live music streaming then

Good for you, I'm jealous since my area doesn't have very good HSUPA coverage, the signal is usually 'Fair'.

Yeah, what a wastage.

Yeah, gotta Google around for music streaming...
It has nothing to do now.

HSUPA?
Why do you need such high speed of uplink? Unless you are doing anything that requires heavy uploads.
You need HSDPA = High Speed Downlink Packet Access.

even wif maxis current bb promo, this 3G internet speed is not affected, unlike sialcom

Sorry, I meant HSPA. My area has very weak coverage for HSDPA and HSUPA.

I think my area only has good HSDPA, Uplink speed? Forget about it.
But sufficient for my normal upload (photos and attachment).
My only concern is the HSDPA.

but more upload speed decrease ping time a little..

Definitely. But my latency is at around 120ms. It is quite good for a wireless broadband.
At least there is no buffering when doing streaming.

Anyone having slow speed connection at JB. It happen last 3 days. I have called their cust service and they claim that some part of Johor have issue but JB is not one of the area listed. It seem that the modem is connected to 3G network and not HSPDA. And it very slow. The best word they can give me " There is nothing we can do for you now. You need to wait!". What a useless cust service they have.

No problem in my area, I'm in PJ.
Got super fast speed. Download stays constantly at 250kBps and above.

100-200ms is normal..

i remembered when u first tested maxis ( u were on DG DC then) many mths b4 u eventually took up maxis, u did mentioned tat maxis in your area (PJ) always disconnect.........but how come now so good jor?

maxis built new tower somewhere near you?

Yeah, that time was a disaster wei. It was about end of last year, it kept disconnecting every 10 minutes.
Now it was so good that it seldom went disconnected.

I don't know. Probably?
