anyone know why the data traffic so congested?

is it because of free FB TWT AND INSTERGRAM

I really think they should remove the app-onz for fb, twt, ig. Knn

whats wrong with that?

My case every time I followed a link out from facebook it will consume other data type besides appz-onz, facebook itself doesn't consume much

went to wendy's klcc to redeem free burger but umobile got no signal inside!

The Umobile app still down? mine is still showing as updating, and the icon is greyed out

Any1 feel like the data Damm slow ? Even I got LTE but slow like turtle eh.

UM 3G network network suck
and no LTE service in my area
really !!!

Poor LTE coverage doesn't seems to be something new. You didn't check coverage map before purchasing?

UMobile is riding on maxis network
Suspect maxis has been "managing bandwidth" for uMobile users riding on their network for quite some time

Not nationwide though

Would like to downgrade my umobile plan P98 to U28. Anyone know the way without going to service center or is offering the service?

UMobile only piggy back on Maxis 2G network not on Maxis 3 or 4G, that's what I read in the papers. Bcos of this reason I often get the same missed calls problems now, same as when I was with Maxis.

imagine they launch unlimited data plan.the data will not move at all. but hope they will open up their new spectrum to ease the congestion issue.

i dont find this problem in my hometown sabah as i got both umobile and hotlink sim. both get the same speed.

sad

I don't quite understand what you mean.

What he means now internet connection traffiic data from umobile hardly mover at all in lots of area. After umobile unlimited plan launch most places data will zero traffic

Maxis Broadband Sdn Bhd (Maxis) and U Mobile Sdn Bhd (U Mobile) have entered into a multi-billion ringgit agreement to share Maxis’ 3G radio access networks (RAN) with U Mobile. The agreement will be for an initial period of 10 years.
(From L to R– Mark Dioguardi, CTO Maxis Berhad, Sandip Das, CEO of Maxis Berhad,Dr.Kaizad Heerjee, CEO of U Mobile & Too Tian Jen, CTO, U Mobile.)

Basically, via the agreement, selected Maxis base station will start using U Mobile’s 3G frequency. This allows U Mobile to offer 3G coverage for voice and data to its customers via Maxis radio network. To make the network sharing possible, Maxis is using Multi-Operator Core Network MOCN for 3G/LTE which is standardized by 3GPP.

The network sharing will exclude urban market centers, such as Klang Valley, Penang, Johor Bahru and Ipoh, where U Mobile requires high bandwidth for high speed mobile broadband services.

The agreement also allows LTE sharing when the spectrum becomes available.

In a statement, Chief Executive Officer of Maxis, Sandip Das, said: “Active sharing results in greater cost savings which in turn translates to increased direct revenue for both companies.”

“As a strong advocate of network-sharing, this will add to our existing carbon footprint reduction initiatives. To date, over 54% of our base stations sites are shared with other operators. This partnership will also accelerate broadband penetration in the country, paving the way towards achieving Digital Malaysia aspirations.” he added.

CEO of U Mobile, Dr. Kaizad added that “This mutually beneficial partnership with Maxis will accelerate the expansion of our current 3G footprint to more than 4,000 3G sites in Malaysia by early-2013.”

According to both Telcos, the RAN partnership also responds to the Government’s call for telcos to reduce duplication of network assets, enabling operators to deliver better services. In addition, this pact promotes increased competition at the service level rather than at the infrastructure level.

As a result of the collaboration, Maxis will receive a significant new source of revenue and will enhance utilization of its network in areas that are currently underutilized.

The value of the deal was not disclosed.

Thanks for the info, I stand corrected. This make sense why the 3 & 4 G at my place is bad and 2G coverage is good but still get missed calls. Maxis' legacy. Thanks again.
