when downloading using IDM i can get 1.34mb max.. but not so fast in browsing..

Well, a lot of factors affect this especially when you browse a website, you will have to be downloading data from different servers say if you browse this forum, you will also have to be downloading data from Google Adsense server etc.

yup... speed is too subjective and the Download Hosting Server will plays a role as well
whether u r using P2P, direct download will contribute to the downloading experience as well
I have used Maxis BB and UM at my Puchong place. So far, my vote goes to UM as I have dumped my Maxis aldy

how ur connection when in UMTS? if my connection in UMTS means i cant do anything.. even login yahoo messenger

Perhaps when it is in UMTS it roams with Celcom since Celcom Broadband does have issues signing in to Yahoo Messenger.

when i'm in UMTS mode it is same like i dont connect to intenet..

u guys here will make those sialcom users cry like

Any U Mobile users in Perak? Can anyone verify if the recent service extension to Ipoh covers Batu Gajah as well?

erm what is UMTS?????

UMTS is the conventional 3G that offers speeds of up to 384kbps.

icic then i should look for HSDPA signal that will be up to 3.6mbps????
pls correct me if i'm wrong....

thanks for the info

i never achived 2mbps..

Ya make me feel like wanna cry

Technically speaking for an advertised speed of 3.6mbps, usually users will be getting an average of 1.8mbps if the connection is really good.

ya.. i get 1.4 connection speed but when i download stuff.. if browsing different story.. now suffering frm slow connection.. r they edy cap my bandwidth ??

hearsay it have covered the ipoh town center (but a few of the small areas only)

Added on February 28, 2009, 4:52 pmwell, i reckon the signal of the UMTS, HSDPA as shown in the ZTE software is not reliable for UM
when u see the UMTS, try to minimize and maximize it again; u will see HSDPA again
speed wise, it's the same for me. no disconnection issue

as far as i knoe, most U-Mobile bb users here are fr the klang Valley

i am the only one here fr Seremban and abt Ipoh, i guess none. Correct me if i am wrong.



abt USB modem, any users here try connecting wif Huawei modem, if yes how to do the settings.

i tot of buying the celcom promo usb modem at rm399 as a backup modem juz incase my ZTE MF622 burns out

hi i m quite interested with umobile wireless broadband service.
comparing maxis,celcom digi and umobile,which one is better?

one of my friends using celcome wireless broadband,when the weather condition is not dat good such as rainy or clowdy day,the bandwidth will drops from 3g to gprs whcih is sloww like shit.and he needs to restart the usb modem such as pull in and out once disconnectivity occurs.
