pro & con..
modem, only can be used when connected to pc/laptop..signal stability & durability (depend on which brand & model) better than phone.
phone, online everywhere, but signal wise can't beat modem.
IMO, if usage abuse both of them will shorten the life time.

QUOTE(allrightall @ May 24 2008, 08:01 PM) ^ should be 2nd half this year, meaning june? youtube nid to wait loh. i think digi 3.5g should be no problem since they are "forced" to rent timedotcom's fibre for the 3g license. youtube need to wait made me bored.. during my time using celcom/maxis, no need to wait but that when they r in excellent connection (mean no many user)... however i still stick to DIGI edge due its stability and no cap limit... my upload/download now more than 7GB in just 10 days.... hope no problem when digi go to 3.5G... although they use timedotcom fibre, the problem here is its connection still under controlled by TM...

DiGi EDGE here I come, but not so soon. I'll wait till 2 days before my semester reopens, such a cheapskate I am.  Care to post your speedtest when the line is totally congested? Like between 8.00 p.m. to 11.00 p.m?

Care to post your speedtest when the line is totally congested? Like between 8.00 p.m. to 11.00 p.m?  sorry can't post the speed due im working at night... however, referring to my torrent speed.. I can achieve that when there r lot of good seeder (very generous).. I don't say DIGI is good but what I can say DIGI better than celcom/maxis... However, if celcom can solve their problem, maybe i'll change back to celcom if DIGI still EDGE or 3G... How bout WIMAX.. U don't want to try?

I'm either in Malacca or Port Dickson and I don't think these two areas are WIMAXed areas, so I'll have to stick with these telcos. How sad.

Oh, then I'm not so sure. Does this situation happen all the time or only at a certain time range? If it only happens after 8.00 p.m. maybe is due to Internet traffic congestion, this happens to all ISPs.
