I was digi edge users, it was good but the only bad thing about it is users will be given internal ip address, which makes it hard to bit torrent effectively and also to log in IRC servers. and bad pings (500-700ms)

other than that it rocks.

why dont u get prepaid number and try it?

i have used digi edge before, and here are my thoughts on that:

1. relatively wide EDGE coverage in major towns in malaysia. speed varies from crawling 5k/s to 20 k/s. The speed is rather inconsistent, fluctuates a lot, dependent on your area also. During peak hours, you will be given only 1 timeslot, so your speed will be 'throttled' to 5k/s.

2. horrible ping : 550ms to 700ms during non peak hours to 800ms - 1200ms during peak hours. so forget about dota and online gaming.

3. bad ip address management. Digi conveniently puts all its Edge users under 2 global ip address. thousands of digi users will be given an internal ip address (10.x.x.x). this could post a problem to p2p , and certain website bars multiple connection from a single IP, for example dalnet in MIRC. forget about rapidshare also.

4. despite all these, I have to say Digi Edge is very STABLE. very little downtime. and there is no limit to the amount of data you could download/upload a month.

miri also has maxis 3G already.

wooot! DIgi slashes their unlimited Data plan to 66/month with option of 2nd line at 33/month.

FOr 99, you can get 2 digi EDGE already.. OMG

Star newspaper

i have agree with you on that. I used it for around 6 months, i got nothing but praise for this service.

It is a very reliable service.

My streamyx knn disconnect every half hour and sometimes got drop packets.

I dont think Digi network is as congested as Celcom, therefore we can get a fairly good speed with EDGE.

I am guessing this offer didnt come earlier because digi was in the midst of their mobility fiesta, and certainly caught off guard by Celcom and maxis slashing their prices. As soon as the mobility fiesta ends, digi slashed their EDGE.

Added on November 1, 2007, 4:42 pmRM66 is a reasonable pricing. Who knows digi may supplant this RM66 with 3G offering next year. (rumours have it that TIme and DIgi are coming up with something).

however, it will be nice if Digi gives out global Ip address to all its users.

I used nokia 6230 as my edge modem. Wonderful but connect at max 200 kbps only...

wah RM 66 for unlimited 3G !!!

EDGE can reach 384kbps also. I thought broadband is defined as any connection more than 128kbps?

Digi is going to change the landscape for 3G services in malaysia soon. Now digi has 3G, and is working with Time for wimax.

Techinically, Digi can full force go into broadband market in malaysia already. hu hu, maxis should be very worried!

oh? they terminated your contract or you ended it yourself?

that's a negative dude

i use nokia 6230, 6230i - all no problem.

You could have written that in proper English.

I received 'missed call alert'.

Anyway, 3G can surf net and receive call at the same time.

looks like the cheapest wireless is Celcom (with the 108 package)

nicely done!
