it's a single ip shared among all users

LOL yeah ....

others complaining Digi la, Maxis la, Celcom la ...

we all here enjoying less traffic + high download speed from U Mobile

the more ppl going to others, the better we are

any users will complain their telco anyway .... jsut that u mobile gets more

of course that's the core idea for each isp to provide utmost service to its customers ...

but the inherent problem is infrastructure cost vs consumption/market demand.

see at celcom broadband: nationwide coverage, but speed is so-so. It's accessible to anyone, though.

the rest like digi/maxis/umobile: building more and more coverage, speed is above average. expanding it is costly. what these telcos do is balancing the fine line between expansion and subscription: more subscribers = more revenue = more resources to expand.

so now, almost 100% streamyx users are getting alternative broadband line. viable solutions are wireless bb. this is where digi/maxis/celcom/umobile comes in to steal our heart and market

celcom3g always share the same fate as streamyx

that's strange: isn't all HSxPA modem function the same? there is only one standard, so there shouldn't be any incompatibilities at all.

anything that is uploading will be slow .. u mobile = maxis upload speed ...

the only best service for uploading is Digi's 3G broadband. next would be Celcom (but this is lousy nowadays) ...

P1 WiMAX is good too, but this is another service (non 3G)


for me, i use U Mobile 3G Broadband for download because i'm getting 3x than my 1M Streamyx for uploading, i have to use Streamyx (~50K/s)

this is the coverage map when they introduced Surf With U package

where r u connecting from?

seems like the performance is yoyo-ing ... i'm at bukit bintang since morning is fine ... darn fast

welcome to the club

u mobile's line always have issue with youtube. it keeps on buffering eventhough the progress bar is downloading fast.

yeah, that's another reason too. internet experience in malaysia is so 1960s.

cannot surf (browsing) or cannot download (RS, etc.)

if cannot download, probably the download limit by RS (or others) have reached

for FUP, nope. Still as fast as hell (back & forth) haha

of course you don't have to pay.

may bill, received yesterday ... that's 2 months delay (just counting, dont worry)

where r u connecting at? kajang? how's the speed?

that's good to hear!

who says? already mentioned many times: UM's upload sucks. not good for uploading stuffs

that's right. between 5-6KB/s

UM's broad is good for one main thing: DOWNLOAD!!!

confirm on the drastic drop in performance.

how about other services? streamyx? celcom/maxis/digi 3g? p1?

@hanif444, if u can afford, keep both

reason is that with streamyx, u're bascially capped with the speed u subscribed (can't go higher).

with umobile, max speed is 3.6mbps (~450KBps). As yes, i do actually achieve this speed, most of the time

this lead to my question on your speed: 1.40 mbps?? do u get higher? or just always 1.4mbps or lower?

nope.

refer to post #1661. APN = my3g and Number = *99#.

it's a well known fact that upload is bad.

if any1 thinking of 3g broadband + good upload + good download, then only Digi can provide that.
