QUOTE(digilife @ Apr 19 2008, 09:18 PM) maxis is only good in "rich man's place" too damn calculative till users in other places curse like hell and they are damn clever to tie customers wif a contract Celcom is different, they hav been silently expanding their 3G cells quietly wif the expertise of vodafone, now i can even surf at 3G speed at an out of of town small village to the amusement of villagers THUMBS UP to celcom............but sometimes during upgrading period their service also suks  Every service sure has it's own "period", as long as it doesn't last too long then there is no big fuss on this kind of issue. Even data centres hosting servers won't guarantee a 100% uptime.

i use u mobile and just found out that multiple users shared the same ip address online. it's too late for me to cancel without paying for the modem since it's over 8 days. looks like i've fallen into the 'if it's too good to be true..." trap.
anyway, i have to cancel and get stuck with a worthless modem which have to be reconfigured (which i dont have any idea how to yet), to work with another service if such is available.

Since you are paying for the modem RM799, Can you check the registered date on the warranty card. I got feeling my unit is recycle unit, the date fill up 2x/March/2008. But i got the unit at PC Fair 13/April/2008. Monday I'm going to return the unit. Very poor/limited coverage at my residential area.

Please, please our national regulatory body...don't stop Digi implementing its 3G service, like what you did when Digi wanted to get a 3G license before...
I have been patiently waiting for 3G service from Digi....

Yes I agree with this statement, for those people who are always on the move cannot depend on WiFi and therefore a connection like 3G is much more suitable. As long as it is able to give decent speed, IMO for those who just want to surf the web and also maybe upload some files for work and so on, speeds around 20kB/s-25kB/s is still good enough as long as you have Internet connection almost everywhere.
