Right. I read of a few other B618 users complaining about facing this issue as well. No solution or fix for this problem yet, unfortunately.Digi Infinite Fan Club [V3], Infinite 150, 100, 80

Just got digi infinite, very very horrible. 4G coverage is terrible, after getting an external antenna with full bars, website still cant load and ping times number in the seconds or timeouts.
Otherwise stuck on 3G with 2Mb/s and timeouts from time to time. Tower congestion can be reduced by having more towers, this is what 4G is designed to do. I once talked to celcom years ago (inside) and they have hidden towers everywhere hence why their network is so good even at crappy times but im not seeing the same thing with digi. Once fiber optics arrive i may ditch this. If as backup internet it is unreliable i might as well not have a mobile internet because the choice is monthly (which if you dont use the bandwidth is a waste of money) or prepaid which has an expiry on data for both celcom and maxis (worse for digi). Everytime i load up celcom prepaid for data, i get 10GB of data free for 5GB weekload giving me about rm2 per GB and celcom's network is pretty good. With digi infinite despite it being infinite for rm 150 a month gives you at best 1Mb/s which is like the old streamyx days which means you wont even reach 100GB a month. Need to find a way to speed up TM to connect fiber optics to new buildings that are already on a street with fiber optics. |

Thank you for sharing and ranting. Nothing new with DiGi Infinite as most of us have in some way experienced what you did. Otherwise stuck on 3G with 2Mb/s and timeouts from time to time.

There is another DiGi Infinite bashing thread called the "DiGi Lagfinite" thread. Welcome to the club. |

What are your line stats? 1Mbps is measured during peak hour? Can mitigate by pointing your antenna differently/upgrade antenna/upgrade CPE/choose different band Long Term solution: write to Digi complain about poor speeds.

I'm going back to hometown this weekend for Ching Ming and for the sake of trying, I have prepared to bring back B618 and AC 790s for testing. I'm not expecting it to fly like my current PJ house but 20% is already good enough. If AC 790s performs the same then I will only bring it back to hometown next time and leave B618 behind.
I seldom go back to my hometown - PD, I'm always in my sister's house in Seremban. I thought of putting E5168 permanently in PD but seems like not a feasible solution because nobody is using it most of the time. Might as well sell it off later. |
