What r the reasons?

I also asking friends not to portin to webe until they stabilize system n features r matured

Maxis sure have better coverage but their package kinda pricey.

It is fine when i am outside.
is far better than celcom.
problem is, when i sit inside restaurant, then webe is gone case.
And maxis don't have this problem.

And significant different when i view my house cctv via phone.
Maxis no problem at all.
Webe, sometimes too slow to load, but still OK, sometimes no signal inside restaurant
Celcom, worst. maybe i have to stand 5 minutes not moving in order to get the signal.

While i was driving, when drive too fast and switching between 2 telco towers, celcom is the most teruk one.
Webe, still fine, sometimes karak also got signal.

Yes. My 1st day on webe. Detected Band 40 at PJ from PJ8 building all d way to Amcorp Mall

Using Huawei P10 plus. Band check using LTE Discovery app

i heard webe can't do tethering on 3g network.. is this true?.. i'm only tethering at my kampung which has no LTE. So need to know this before I port from celcom to webe.

Yes its true.

It is up to Apple to optimize their software and antenna to Webe.
*Well, it also doesn't hurt if Webe insist Apple to do it quick"

I thought it’s up to webe to quickly catch up? As it didn’t happen with other telcos so far.

It's always up to Apple. Apple have to enable and optimize their iPhone for Maxis, Celcom etc.

Perhaps it's in the works. Should be good in coming years.

Any idea when?

Got question to all mahaguru and sifu.

I have a USB modem Huawei E398 and also ZTE MF90 mifi. Can these support WEBE 4G at LTE speed?
Webe only at 850MHz? Can work for these? Thank you.

ZTE MF90 Spec:
* LTE-FDD 800/900/1800/2100/2600MHz

* LTE-TDD 2300(2600)MHz

* UMTS 850/900/1900/2100MHz

* EGPRS/GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz

* LTE-FDD: DL/UL 100/50Mbps (Category3)

* LTE-TDD:DL/UL 68/17Mbps (Category3)

* DC-HSPA+: DL/UL 42/5.76Mbps


Huawei E398 USB Modem Specs:
http://www.3g-modem-wiki.com/page/Huawei+E398

ZTE MF90 supports band 1, 3, 7, 8, 20, 38 and 40.
Huawei E398 only supports band 1, 3, 7, 8 and 20, depending on your exact model.

800mhz refers to band 20. 850mhz refers to band 5.

Webe operates LTE on band 5 and 40. Most of its current LTE network runs on band 5. However it is upgrading more sites especially in Klang Valley, JB, Penang with band 40 LTE.

As such, in your case, only ZTE MF90 can be used for Webe LTE. However, that is given that you have a band 40 LTE in your area, which I think is highly unlikely.

So, perhaps just buy a new router that supports band 5?

Thank you, Mr. Gray.

Webe called me asking if I am interested. Looks like I can't subscribe unless I get a new modem. Not sure if I want to invest in this. Salute to you for giving me such precise answers!!

Thank you sir!

BTW, any reasonably priced mifi or modem you guys can recommend with band 5 and 40 and perhaps also compatible with other carriers like Celcom, maxis and digi?

Huawei e8372h-608
Cheapest one yet with wifi

Bear in mind Webe Mobile's SIM card cannot be used inside a mifi or any other USB dongle modem. It will detected and block your data usage. So you must have a smartphone with LTE Band 5 and Band 40 supported in order to use their data services.

Different with Webe Broadband, postpaid data with monthly quota, but you can tethering anyway freely.

boss, font tukar balik ke normal lah, my sight still goodand not semi blind yet, despite my age reaching almost 50.

Is the 10Gb tethering a permanent feature of WebeM or for a promotional period only?
