Added on August 19, 2007, 7:26 amEDGE speed rock !!! Yahoo.. Hi everyone, just today at 7.20AM 19/8/07 morning. I test out the EDGE connection agian. And guess what? I got an average speed of 200kbps ... I am getting the speed of 30-50kbps since i activated my digi sim card. I am still not sure is it Digi network egineer had done something on their site (log a report to digi on 14/8/2007) or the slot is free at morning time? But anyway, i will try this afternoon & tonite to see if i still can get this 200kbps speed. If yes, then i believe Digi network people had done something on their side..Will update again..

Here is the test result via firefox



Here is the test result on IE7

Oh no ... ! I do a test at 3pm now.. the EDGE speed is drop back to 33-50kpbs again.. What happen?? what happen??
Only earlier in the morning only i can get average of 200kbps...

Digi network people call me. They said they had reset the "server" at my area... Ask me to monitor for few more day before they close my case. Will monitor 2 nite onwards..
They said, normal speed is 70-200kbps.. as it is a share bandwidth method.. My opinion 70kbps..hmn.. not acceptable.. at least the average speed has to exceed 120kbps..

Me again for the update...The speed is better slightly about 60-70kbps... But after i installed Neteagle, the speed increased very very much. It boots up to 110-120kbps immediately after restarting my notebook. This NETeagle really works... But, then i still feedback to Digi about the slow connection even with NETeagle..

Seems like HP had running out of stock for the 520 notebook with 1.6Ghz Duo Core processor. This is really a great deal !!! If u want to buy 3 Years warranty u need to add RM 290 for the care pack. RM 384-RM290=RM 94.. RM 94 u can get 120GB HDD instead of 80GB + 1.66 Ghz processor.. I want !!!!! But, mind already got the notebook 520 from hp already....

Update here again. Seems like Digi had solved my complain on EDEGE slow issue (33kbps) at noon & nite time. But, speedtest on earlier morning 7 am is super at 230kbps...Today is my first day of getting the speed of 150kbps at nite after getting the SIM card on 14 August..

well it is actually up to u. For my case i give the instruction to the Digi guy (the guy that i signed with) that i want it to activate on this specific date...Received the invoice from HP on my notebook & ipaq.. Seems like buying HP product & get a Digi service..

My EDGE issue is solved !!! I am quite happy with u and already use it on full swing.. Average noon & nite speed is 170-200 kbps. Earlier in the morning average speed is 220kbps..

Worth it !!!!! I regret why i don't have this kind of offer.. The 667FSB means alot..

Yes.. am what i am doing now... the phone connect via USB cable to my hp notebook...That is all... No need to do any setting. Just turn on the "internet sharing" on hp, the your notebook will detect and auto create a internet sharing.. Done ! EDGE at nite is 120-160 at nite in my area..Sometimes can go to 200kbps.. Morning ..sure can get 220+kbps...With your phone & notebook, u can online at everywhere (perhaps EDGE coverage area lah)

huh? Why RM 249?? I signed up the Digi/hp package. RM 161.50 x24 months. One HP 520 notebook + hp ipaq smartphone

Yes.. and in fact a very good deal for RM 177.50 with the upgrade spec they give.. but i don't think is Core2 Duo.. is Core duo lah..

Worth it for 3YW. For your infor, i am planing to pay RM 285 to buy the HP care pack... So my notebook can last at least 3 years.. I don't want the case that after 1 year Screen faulty.. & need almost 2k to repair the screen.. Now a days.. very command that notebook screen rosak just right after 1 year

Frankly, If u are purely looking for broadband service provider to replace streamyx.. Then EDGE technology is not suitable..It is Enhance version of GPRS only with max speed 384k. Go for either Maxis or Celcom 3G services perhaps their charges plan is suitable for you..
It is the hp/digi package that made us use EDGE..

Same thing lah..HSPDA stand for High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA, also known as High-Speed Downlink Protocol Access) is a 3G (third generation) mobile telephony communications protocol. HSDPA deployments support down-link speeds of 1.8, 3.6, 7.2 and 14.4 Mbit/s. But i think, at the moment Celcom or Maxis only offer max 3MB.. but this technology have a potential to growth.. As the max speed is 14.4Mbps..

Since Digi fail to tender for the 3G license.. I am in doubt that what is their company direction in future...

Hard to say, HP business class notebook should be more durable(i believe). For Compaq family, the quality is really bad. Many of them suffer from screen problem just right after 1 year... The Rm 285 is just like buying insurance... If really that bad luck screen faulty on Year2.. then, this notebook can through away already...Better play safe

Added on September 4, 2007, 10:44 amNo no.. both different technology.. HSDPA can carry higher pipe line data (up to Max 14.4mbps). I saw Maxis & Celcom already promoting their HSDPA service. But never find out in details..

Yes i am EDGE user. Depend on EDGE to online now a days.. The speed is i will said 160kbps average that i can normally get. How many people u want to share out for this speed..hihi..

For the internet sharing..hmn.. if u have a way for XP, Vista to share out again from the "internet sharing connection". They it will works.. The thing is, need to figure out on this..

To me.. still ok. I can even do some downloading... the speed is about 20kb or sometimes 25 kb...Not bad lah... The selling point here is mobility.. And look cool also by plugging hp to notebook n ONLINE..

But one thing is, when there is incoming call. The internet will stop.. Once u hang up, the internet is working again...

You dad connect via Streamyx to internet lo..

Yes.. the handphone USB charger comes with attachable data cable. Detach the cable & then plug it to your PC and the other end plug it to your handphone. There, u r online on your destop PC
