What i get is ard 200kbs, but it is not consistent. Sometimes the connection will stop for a while.

Hv u compared class 10 and 32, whether got any difference?

Ic, thx for yr explanation.

Wow, got a lot of difference!!!!

I used iPAQ 6828 to connect via usb, the download speed oso terrible. It takes more than 1 min to finish a 200k attachment.

I plan to buy a SE hp to replace this hp, anyone use se phone to connect b4?

ok, thx

Izzit? my download speed is only 0.7kb/s. Will try to use the download accelerator program.

Hi all,

I have started to use digi edge as replacement of streamyx to online. The speed is acceptable to me, anyway it is slower than tmnut. But since i am only a light surfer, no extensive downloading is required. Still ok.

For yr info, i used my ipaq 6828 and nokia 6300 to online.

Hi sugen,

Congratulations on yr delivery!!! Do report us the edge speed at yr area, ok? My area (PJ) is terribly slow.

HP wont deliver the sim card to u. U shld get from digi dealer when u obtain the notebook. For my case, i got the simcard from the outlet in University Malaya.

For using of yr ipaq as modem, u just activate a program in yr phone called "modem link" then connecting the phone to yr notebook via usb/bluetooth. Yr phone will be automatically detected in win xp (vista i am not sure) as usb/wireless modem.

Afterward, setup a dial up with the following configurations:
username & password : blank
Dial no: *99#

U shld able to online now.

Hi,

I used my ipaq rw6828 as modem and get a pathetic 68 (dl) and 50 (ul)!!!

My location in ss26, pj.

Hi sugen,

My problem is exactly same as u, always connected between pathetic 30~50kbps at my resident place. If u plan to complain kaw2 to digi or mcmc, u will definitely get my support.

My edge speed is only ok before 8am (above 100kbps) . After that it will drop below 50kbps.

As suggested by bro cy97, install neteagle can increase the speed a bit. (Thanks bro cy97).

Man, i think unless digi bought over time and upgrade to 3G, if not our speed cant help.

It depends on yr need actually. If yr streamyx is only used for surfing and emailing, this edge can replace streamyx anytime. But if u use yr internet service for p2p downloading, streamyx still win one hand down. Edge will take u forever to download a 100mb movie.

If u hv edge detected in yr area, then will be edge speed. otherwise gprs speed. Edge speed theoretically can achieve max 238kbps but based on the feedback from the subscriber, 50~120kbps is most often case. some rare time can achieve >200kbps.

If u 12 compare with streamyx, still a hand down. but it provide u mobility.

Yes, u just put yr simcard in any edge enable phone, then shld be ok. But got rumors said nokia phone will perform better.

If u subscribe 161.5 package, then u will get voice plan besides data plan. RM50 free voice charge for first 6 months will be given. 149.5 package i not sure got voice plan or not. 124 package definitely dun hv.

IMHO, 200kbps is possible to achieve but 400kbps+++ is almost ridiculous. the max dl speed for n73 is 236.8kbps only.

Congratulations to u!!!!!

Hi irontech,

why so contradict? i test my edge speed using globalquest (without connecting to pc), only get 20~40kbps. so pathetic... I hv to complain digi kaw2 this time.

Hi sugen,

U used HP 512 to connect?

I think can use edge/3g router to broadcast wifi, but after testing the edge speed, i think not worth it lah. The router cost >RM500.

Got rumors said digi will acquire/merge with time dot com to provide 3G service. dunno whether is true.

Yes, i subscribed this edge services to replace my tmnut streamyx. perhaps i am so greedy, i want both speed and mobility together.

I finally solve the edge speed problem by replacing my hp 6828 to nokia n80, now the speed is between 150 ~ 220 kbps. wow...
