If I have my laptop with me then I won't even need to go online on my phone 

so Maxis last mile is not on Total Morron's effort?

to add in more info...

Maxis 3G Internet's connection (not BB) not bad, stable, however speed is not fast, but acceptable.

I have no problem surfing and playing World of Warcraft at 20th floor (despite I was informed weak signal 10th floor and above).

so everytime when Screamyx is down, I'll go online via phone connecting to laptop... same like the other day, when the whole nation was down.
EDITED: btw... this is NOT a Maxis Broadband (Maxis BB) Thread.

Is there a limit/cap to speed offered through Maxis HS 3G?

Because I tested two computers with two connections, both using Maxis E1762, same location, but one on Maxis HS 3G and the other the ordinary Maxis BB. The speed test results:

Maxis HS 3G:



Maxis BB:

Tested both a couple of times, with consistent results.

DIfferent APN obviously. HS 3G is unet, BB is bbnet

Erm, guys, if your sim card has a PIN number, then you can't use the E1762 Mobile Partner software?

I tried with my hotlink card, and it doesn't work, basically there was no device found. However, I could connect with Windows 7 Network Connection Manager. Just couldn't connect with the Huawei bundled software.

Any ideas? I don't have a installation CD though.

Tried already APN=maxisbb. I still get 113 IP and speed no more than 2Mbps...

Thanks for pointing that out... didn't realise it... as the CS told me over the phone is 190MB...      didn't know 1MB = RM1...   
This is a Maxis 3G/HS 3G Thread... so of course, it's 3G Internet~loh... not Maxis Wireless Broadband.

yes, I know about *100#, 'cos every time if I'm not at home//office, and need to use internet, I'll subscribe either RM2/hr or RM8/day. So meaning, I won't direct connect and kenal charged by per usage. 

and I'm on postpaid+auto-debit. meaning they already charged it to my CC! 

I'm gonna stop all auto-debit from now! this is too risky+ridiculous! 

Funny thing is... how did the "19MB" appear? when I ask the CS to tell me... where had this 19MB access to? let me know the IP/URL... he said he is not able to retrieve that info, and said he'll get the billing ppl to contact me. 

still waiting... tomorrow I'll call Maxis back and see.

Plug n Play for the USB modem... so it could be Maxis or Default. I'm not sure. Most likely default as there are no Pre-Configurations Profiles for Maxis.

Yeah it's unlocked.. the problem is whenever I click 'Connect' it will just straight away pop up a Windows prompting to redial.....

Just bought a Huawei E1762, the speed seems to be faster and more stable with it. At least Maxis 3G is giving me what Streamyx can't give me  - 2mpbs or 4mpbs.
