QUOTE(acid_head @ Mar 31 2019, 09:32 PM) Bingo, Umobile in my kampong (actually was state's second largest town center) was lesser crowded and better coverages too, speed was pretty awesome in 3G and so-so in 4G.The reasons I lefted Umobile after 3 years, because their agents can misused our identity and kept registered alien numbers. Another reasons is validity issues which I'm sicked that need topup regularly but hardly to consuming those credits. Final reasons is frequently massive outages, and their CS system also outages in same time too, totally unacceptable!! This post has been edited by wilson1stop: Apr 2 2019, 12:49 PM |

QUOTE(cloudclone @ Sep 11 2019, 01:57 PM) 100gb in one month? If average daily 3-4gb only they won't cap I think... If 100gb daily sure they find out and cap u lol... I just guess la. Dunno is it their network poor or is it they really cap u. But few days ago I didn't face capping problem on p99 before I change to Gx30. I used only 13xgb that time. Beside monthly capped 100GB, there is daily limits 60GB too, which will throttled between 8pm-2am as I've heard.Not my business as I hardly to consume 60GB in a month(s). |

QUOTE(shinchan5347 @ Sep 17 2019, 06:38 PM) anyone here using GX30?how's the speed in terms of youtube/netflix streaming because the speed capped at 3mbps right? You need buy a prepaid and test yourselves first, some area was very poor signals.Umobile capped streaming SD quality only, which is good for 240-360p youtube, ya 3mbps and unlimited quota (but recently throttled after 100GB used) |

QUOTE(lurkingaround @ Sep 30 2019, 06:33 PM) . Prepaid accounts require registration with MyKad. U-Mobile can blacklist MyKads for prepaid SIM cards. Most telcos give indirect warning to illegal users or limit bypassers by temporarily deactivating their accounts for a day or 2. If warning is not heeded, they may opt to completely deactivate their accounts and blacklist them or take more drastic actions against serious or heavy offenders, eg send them a RM1k bill and/or CTOS. This has happened before but not to every illegal user or for every telco. |

4g celltower normally can scope 1km for good indoor signals (also speeds), up to 2.4km for good outdoor signals with acceptable speeds.
Anyways, Pls feel free to stay in middle of Paddy fields if dreaming for insanely speeds... Tested in (borders of Kangar) rural paddy fields which beyonded 2.4km from Celltowers. ![]() |

QUOTE(lurkingaround @ May 23 2020, 03:21 PM) . ššš Thanks for details. Just to add to your good post, afaik, a 4G LTE cell tower has a range of up to 3 miles/5km for Internet data and up to 10 miles/16km for voice calls/SMS. If you are out of this 3 mile/5km range = can't connect to the 4G LTE network for Internet data. Most 3G./4G cell towers are located in city areas and along main roads and highways(to cater for car navigation apps like Waze). The closer you are to the cell tower, the faster your download and upload speed. ....... So, when checking the celco's 4G coverage map online, make sure your location is within 3 miles/5km from the covered areas shown. On your smartphone, after subscribing to a celco plan, you can check the 4G cell signal strength by going to >Settings >System >About phone >Status > Signal strength. Best is around -60 dBm; average is around -100dBm; bad is around -140dBm. A 3G/4G cell tower can only service a maximum 60 users at the same time or simultaneously = cell tower capacity. It's a 1st-come-1st-serve basis. If 100 users are trying to connect to the same cell tower at the same time, only the 1st 60 users will be connected while the other 2nd 40 users won't be able to connect = gotta wait-in-line. So, network congestion happens when there are too many subscribers and not enough cell towers in an area. ....... OTOH, voice calls/SMS have priority over Internet data = hence, web-surfing and video-streaming will sometimes be temporarily interrupted/disconnected for 1 to 2 minutes = 4G LTE is not suitable for online gaming unless you use a packet-loss prevention VPN-like non-free/paid service. 4G cell signals are line-of-sight and can be blocked by walls/buildings, hills, dense trees, heavy rain, etc. 2600MHz is more easily blocked than 850MHz. UMobile is mostly using 4G LTE Band 7 = 2600MHz. So, for better cell signal reception, UMobile users should have their mobile device facing outside, eg not behind 4 walls in a small room or in the basement. Normal 3G speed is about 1Mbps. Normal 4G speed is about 20Mbps. The latest 4G LTE-Advanced or 4G+ can normally give about 100Mbps. Malaysian celcos are in the midst of upgrading their cell towers to 4G+, eg Digi and Maxis. For most people, they don't need 5G, ie 4G+ is fast enough. . |

Wanna ask Master here, if my aunt credit balance left over 50 plus, can she just topup RM5 then buy GX30 plan?
Is that usable for 30 days? Or just 5 days as topup RM5 only? Looking for you answer, thanks. |
