Although it is claimed that UMobile will have speeds of up to 3.6mbps with just RM78 every month, it isn't even near 56k speed so definitely not worth the money. Even a Celcom D68 at 384kbps is so much faster so I am going to support what digilife suggested.

Yes i know I got your point bro... well as an expatriate i have my limitations. Celcom do require too many things that at this moment I can't afford to do. This u-mobile also my friend help me to take.. I just dont want to blow him off.. so I'm thinking hard cz i wont/cant take tmnet but i require a strong connectivity as my job and my research also depends on the speed.. if i am not mistaken for celcom i still got to buy the modem ..

anyway i just talked to the customer service and i am going to give back the umobile modem package tomorrow..

and along with that they will gonna get bash exactly on my BLOG..

using this http://www.izzi.com.my/speedtest/
weird i cant even load speedtest.net yet can get result so good

You're on UMobile right ? Just double checking since you are using Izzi's speedtest. If you're on UMobile then it is really rare to find an UMobile user having speeds like yours.

picture of my result
can only get through the izzi speedtest
look at my upload
loading lowyat.net takes forever

unless you are testing against a server which resides in malaysia .. well it doesn't really acceptable and countable by logic..in addition to that .. you can't see a ping result from izzy speedtest.. most probably they set it up in a manner that they can sale their product.. oh i forgot to mention my maxisBB also shows 189KB/s speed at izzy speedtest while it downloads a file from microsoft which is about 2MB and takes about 37minutes to download.. avarage speed 3.2KB/s... hmmm ..

What is izzy upto actually..?

I suspect Izzi has been playing around with their speedtest to show a false results but can't confirm this, just an assumption.

you can confirm it if you have a personal proxy setup which tunnels through ssh ... so you can track the filename it tries to download or upload as well as you can resolve the server..

if the result from izzy is true or even the half of it true... you should be able to stream online media, RDP, SSH, ftp protocol without any issue.. well none of them work properly with this umobile..

I know Celcom 3G is a bit congested now, using iZZi to test out the speed... I got this.


Speed from speedtest:

Izzi is probably trying to tell that Celcom's service is bad.

I didn't conduct that two speed tests at once, I did iZZi first and followed by speedtest.net, which was only 3 minutes difference. As can see from the images.
Impossible 3 minutes have so big difference right?

aha, IZZI...

Last Result:
Download Speed: 469 kbps (58.6 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 85 kbps (10.6 KB/sec transfer rate)

Speedtest.net

485/104

Celcom E220 reported speed
510/128

So, the conclusion - Almost the same, just few K's different for me...

LYN loading fast... Rapidshare juz fine... around 25-30K now..

For fair and square case, I tested again. This time two tests were conducted in one shot.

iZZi:
Download Speed: 361 kbps (45.1 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 57 kbps (7.1 KB/sec transfer rate)

Speedtest:
Download Speed: 310 kbps
Upload Speed: 54 kbps

I take back my words first. Maybe the line really turned better in 3 minutes.

your first test wif izzi site was bad cause another celcom uesr was using the same ip wif u in LYN was also doing the same thing,
remember kai-loon's theory users of d68/69 here shared the same ip in lyn if they are logon to lyn

(tarik from other thread )

my theory, when i use 3G phone searching 3G network, if 018 Umobile signal appear, does it mean the area is covered by Umobile 3g/HSDPA area?

Yes basically if UMobile's network show up when you are searching for 3G networks, then your area is probably covered by UMobile. However still best to have them confirm on coverage issues.

Go for Celcom Broadband lah far more better

this is my connections. im not sure is ok or not, im not really undeerstand bout upload/downloading speed.

izzi

mesia

spore
