My consideration of 4G package with RM45 fees cause YES will free a Portablem Modem. I will mostly using the 4G YES service when working at my rented place which is a condo about 10th floor(but there's carparks levels below as well). The operator said 10th floor will have signal weak issue. She recommended apply home fibre which will be a trouble as i am just a tenant.
Btw,  i prefer to keep my DIGI hp number for everyone in my contact.

I will have to control over my addictive in internet activities with that 15GB data limit.
Normal daily routine will be youtube and Facebook... no more P2P stuff with that 15GB.
I found that using HP as hotspot.  The computer is suffer with slower surfing experience. Sometimes showing 4G with 1 or 2 bars, the speed is miserable for youtube. When i purchased 1hour high speed on DIGI, it is smoother loading in youtube at 3G signal full bar.
Lucky daytime is mostly fine. Only late night sometimes it doesn't loading anything when tethering together with computer.
I have to view stuff and do research on my tiny phone screen.

I am fine without 100mbps like Unifi home fibre speed.
Just loading streaming content without too crazy hiccups is a time-saver for me.
Also I need to backward/forward watching 1 hour or long length youtube content like video tutorial for learning stuff.
I am a iPhone SE user.
I am considering buying a 4G modem first. Then testing different Simcard on my own. Maybe i can get rid of signing up 1 year contract.
Any reliable and good connectivity 4G modem i can chosen? I saw alot are like Pendrive design these days.
Not too sure these thin and sleek modem can last long hours of operation and also overheat issue.

You can port out to other telco while remain your current Digi number, so u don't have to worry about losing ur current phone number. You can submit the MNP (mobile number portability) application via online, and almost all telco can do that, except Yes 4G, which u can only do it in selected Yes Store that accepts MNP applications.

I understand that you don't need a super high speed internet, just fast enough ones will do. I was wondering, you use WiFi hotspot and connect to ur computer? Have you tried USB tethering, connect ur iPhone cable to ur computer's USB port, then select "Bluetooth and USB Only" (later u turn off Bluetooth if u don't use it). It'll work just like connecting a LAN cable to ur computer so that you'll get to use stable data connection, instead of relying on WiFi, which is susceptible to interference. You try this method and see if the network improves or not. Cuz getting a pendrive shape modem ones (usually called 4G LTE dongle modem), you need to spend another amount of money to buy the modem, and can only used on computer by inserting to the USB port. And it doesn't seem so "financially efficient" if you just plan to use it only for few months.

Anyhow, I strongly advise u to complain this to Digi, explain to them how this issue has greatly affected how you're doing ur work. They'll try to solve the issue as fast as they can. Remember, you are a paying customer, you have the right to file a complaint if you're not satisfied with the service. Practice your consumer rights. 😉

If you wanna buy multiple SIM cards to try the network, you can insert the sim card to ur iPhone, use USB tethering to ur computer to use and test the network. So not necessary have to buy a 4G dongle modem.

I just bought Yes 4G yesterday. I am going to the store to ask why i cannot turn on Personal Hotspot with it. I see that's quite good 10GB with RM30 compared to Digi prepaid. I haven't bought to try it out yet.

Yes, i am using USB tethering now. Thanks for the explanation in detail bout its stable data connection instead of Wifi connection. I had looked into a few 4G LTE sim card Modem with antenna. It give me a pause to purchase it on the spot. It's around RM379 for dual band model. So my understanding from you is connecting with USB tethering i can enjoy the Full bandwidth already. And its cheaper solution without the modem since my phone can do the job perfectly. And i am the only user and only needed my computer to surf net.

So how's the Yes 4G network performance?
And are you sure that you didn't confuse with RM1/day Konfem Unlimited plan. That plan doesn't allow hotspot tethering, and has speed cap of 4Mbps.

Perhaps, have you try to restart your phone?

Actually you'll get 20GB for the RM30. They'll give you 10GB free once you bought the add-on.

It's supposed to be a temporary promotion but it's been more than a year now.

They have to remain the double quota, to make their plans competitive with other prepaid telco plans. Also, it is a marketing tactic to encourage more people to subscribe to the plan as soon as possible, cuz they never know when will it ends, even if Yes 4G intent to make it an ongoing and permanent offer.

This is a common practice among many telcos, but not every offers like this are permanent.

I went to another Yes 4G outlet. Gladfully the staff is helpful to help me setup the Personal Hotspot.
Iphone :
Mobile Data / LTE SETUP(Optional) / PERSONAL HOTSPOT :yesnet for APN/Username/Password.

Yes, you are right. I double confirmed with her bout Konfem Unlimited plan. It is only for Mobile Phone. No Tethering with computer. If Tablet, it will detect it as well and Block it. I not sure is this real or not.

Today, i tested YES 4G line at outdoor MidValley KTM station. It can hit around 30mbps for 3 testrun. That's impressive like my unifi at home. My iphone was shown 4G LTE Signal bar - FULL BARS.

Ok, Right now i am at condo, 11pm. Testing the YES 4G.
Detected as LTE - Two BARS.
same as my DIGI line..haha
The download Mbps is slightly more stable than DIGI for tonight.
Maximum YES 4G can hit is about 7Mbps. Digi at 4G, 2 bars is about 4Mbps.
I wondering if a 4G LTE Modem with Two Antennas could boosting up to receive signal more efficiently.

Which mean YES 4G with RM30 for 20GB no speed caps? Free 10GB for each purchase with RM30? That's attractive man. Digi RM35 is 6GB. And those slow speed 2GB free for 30days which is pretty much not that smooth streaming. I had to view youtube at 360p or 480p sometimes if terrible happen. Or just close it if force me to watch at 144p...

My current Digi with that FREE 2GB is 1pm to 7pm. I don't really like this idea. And the speed is like turtle slow.
Sometimes I need to purchase High SPeed Rm1 to boost up the speed as a web loading a page is like forever non-responsive. Once paid for 1 hour High Speed. The loading spell is working~.

Anyhow Digi still have its benefit for free surfing in Facebook and instagram. That's my every hours social app.

It's good to hear that you enjoyed the network experience on Yes 4G.
Yes 4G don't have those dedicated quota for video, social media, or whatsoever.
It's just either purely the GBs they're offering to you, or unlimited quota at capped speeds.
If you do the math, Digi is indeed offers a lot more GBs to users, in the form of those video streaming quota, from 1GB everyday at 1-7pm, etc.

If you're experiencing poor network performance on Digi network, like I said earlier, you have to file a complaint to Digi so that they will solve the issue for you. Cuz if you don't, they won't know and the slow network issue will stay there as it is now (and you'll continue to suffer).

You can send a report using MyDigi app, tap the 3 lines button on top left corner, tap Support.
At "Report an Issue" section, select Network Issue.

Also, you can have a live chat with Digi and tell them the network problem by tapping the "small blue button with 3 lines" in it at the top right corner after tapping Support on MyDigi app.
Or you can do it on browser at https://new.digi.com.my/webchat

Based on google, YES support CA or LTE-A since few years ago

But I never see the 4g+ on my phone. I can confirm my phone supported all the band YES is currently riding on and the speed never went beyond 30 Mbps

Anyone ever get 4g+ on YES network?

It's pretty much everywhere (maybe except Sabah and Sarawak).
Yes 4G also uses B38 and B40 in Klang Balley areas.

I think your place must have B20 for your phone to detect 4g+
