yes, i had tried in my other mifi, working.. but if always moving around it need certain amount of time to lock the signal. maybe the sim architecture doesnt suit with mifi.

yes.. that is what they said when i am at celcom center that day to get this modem.

that person in charge said that to make sure i turn on this thing once i reach home. bcoz it can lock your location.

i thought he was bluffing thou.. haha

Is B618 is location locked ?

No, it's not locked.

after almost a week using it.. now the speed drop to 30mbps.. will see what happen after a month

Damn, the Youtube loading speed is capped at 480p and sometimes it will stopped for a while before reload it again. While others websites not under VideoWalla link is working smoothly. Why they do that? It supposed to be smooth video buffering since it is under 4G LTE with full reception bar. Those who subscribed to Wireless Platinum package, did you guys encounter this issue as well? I do the speedtest, can easily reached 60mbps ++ in my residence area.

I concur this. I test the modem with other sim. I test the sim with other phone. I put an inverter in my car and drive around with the modem.

The modem is not locked to any sim.
The modem is not locked to any location.
The sim is locked to a particular location.

yes.. i have the same issue with you.. now my speed is still at 30mbps.. before this it was 50 - 60 mbps

I managed to get 80mbps in my residential area today. But the Youtube streaming really disappointed as the resolution can dropped to 240p despite having great speed for other websites. Anyone knows how to bypass this Video Walla as Celcom is not sincere enough to provide normal fibre speed to their end users when it comes to watching movies using the apps categories under Video Walla. On top of that, is there anyone know how to check the usage for Video Walla as Celcom Online Service only shown the normal usage for Internet but not for Video Walla? No point to upgrade to 1TB platinum package if this issue not able to resolve it to the satisfactory level.

Thanks for the input.
Great to know that it’s not locked.

Great idea to do those tests !

Fantastic news indeed!

anybody facing difficulties to connect to the internet at the moment ?

Yes. Especially to those websites such as Facebook, Youtube and those which are not created locally. Had been monitor the situation become worst.

For usage under video Walla, celcom capped the speed to only 2.5mpbs. They didnt mention it in faq. But if u called celcom hq. They'll explain it. But not sure about the platinum package.

yess.. correct. i called celcom, they said they are having network issues.. but then i ask until when.. they dont know about.. it happen since yesterday.. sigh

it was kinda frustrating when facebook its very slow loading. then I switch to edge.. =.=" well much more faster now.. so my chrome was the problem.

This morning I had reported the issue to Celcom Customer Care Service and they assist me to reset the network slowness issue from their end and now everything including the Youtube rendering speed back to normal (able to play 720p and 1080p videos without any lagged).

may I know which number did u called ? the 019- 60111111 did not have option for wifi broadband

Just call the number you mention earlier and give them your registered Celcom sim card number (broadband) and ask them to do the reset for you.
