anyone using Maxis broadband Hua wei Rm138 package???i can't connect to it now...before i use tiger i can use it..but when i change to leopard cannot...anyone try on this??at window side didn't got any problem.....

PLEASE HELP!!!

Thanks

Yeah, same here. Called Maxis and they said Leopard is not supported yet. They are working on it at the moment.

hmmmm, is it possible to make it wireless for the maxis broadband?

I just use my 3G phone as modem (via bluetooth) works perfectly fine with Leopard (using right now). Just an alternatively you may want to consider while they sort it out

the problem is its a landline for maxis broadband, contract aredi sign liao

Don't know about Maxis broadband and how it works, but I suppose you could get a router to initiate the connection before plugging in your Leopard enabled Mac.

doesnt the bluetooth bottleneck the 3G connection, i know the 3G connection is much faster than the bluetooth connection

How can a bluetooth be a bottleneck of a 3G connection ? The slowest bluetooth 1.2 is already running on 1Mbit/s, version 2.0 is 3Mbit/s. How fast is our 3G connection in real world ? HSDPA 8Mbit/s ???

the router doesnt works with maxis modem

I was just curious because from previous experience using my dad's 3G connection is a gazillion times faster than the BT i use for file transfer

Nope haven't experince any difference between using a cable and BT if that is what you are referring to but oddly enough disconnection occured more often with BT

i thought maxis said that there was no guarantee on p2p speed... and there is a fair usage policy governing this right?

I'm using it now to type this... it's easy...

System Preferences > Network > Choose "HUAWEI MOBILE" >click "Advance" > Modem Tab

I changed the name from HUAWEI MOBILE to Maxis3G since it sounds nicer

Change Vendor to "Other"
then select model "HUAWEI Mobile Connect (u will see 2 HUAWEI, choose the 1st one)
Press "OK"



Configuration: Default
Tel Number: *99#
A/c Name: maxis
Password: wap

Press "Apply"
Click "Connect"

**notice tat sometimes u cannot click 'connect' to power up the modem, if this happens,
Application > MobileConnect > "connect"

Tats all... enjoy maxis3G guys...

thanks..finally can use it in LEOPARD!!!!!but something wrong with ADIUM...can't sign in with msn acc....is it maxis problem or msn??when in window side,my msn keep on sign in sign out...haiz.....
thanks HELPING!!!

my guess is msn's port number is blocked by maxis... i tried to call the customer service, the only thing they ask me do is use the web-based www.meebo.com or emessenger...

they block peer to peer ports, so i guess msn is within the range tat maxis blocked... correct me if i'm wrong bout this la...

my fren using in vista do some crack on his live messenger tat automatic change the connection settings, as for mac... i'm still waiting for maxis's feedback...

for current, only skype and iChat av i used can connection without any problem.
