If i can ask Maxis One Go Wifi users here.... how is the speed during office hours? esp from 8am to 5pm
I’d tell you to not count on it. It was fine for me most of January 2021 until around last week. My speed has been terrible since. I’m no longer getting the 2-3 MB/s peak speed I used to get (see my reply on previous page). My Maxis ONE data plan is also heavily throttled. Using my phone’s hotspot results in the same problem. Look at
their Twitter page and you can see a lot of angry customers complaining about poor speed on Maxis network across all their plans.
At best, I’m seeing <500kbps lately. At worst (night times), I get what I feel like is 64kbps, which is almost unusable. Imagine waiting for Google logo to load. It feels like living in the stone age. It’s completely unpredictable. I find it difficult to sustain a voice call without lag or stutter and impossible to conduct a video call.
I called Maxis regarding the issue but they played dumb and said they will get the network team to call me back today to troubleshoot due to long call queue but I didn’t receive a call back. I doubt they will admit to throttling their users on the line. After over 10 years with Maxis, I’m now ready to switch my entire family away from it.

Hotlink quietly slows down users to 512kbps after 8pm, blames it on MCO (except it’s not 512kbps and not just Hotlink users).
