Thanks for feedback ! 

This Aztech HW550 router - about how much need to pay?

What is the best price?  Where to get the best price - Low Yat plaza?

Anyone here knows where is the best place to get 2nd hand but still in good working condition router / modem ?

I found the people who hang out in this thread super helpful - Thanks !

Hey mates, I'm not really satisfied with Umobile la.
Download speed REALLY SLOW, 0~60 kb/s.
ALWAYS DROP WHILE DOWNLOADING FROM SITES LIKE MEGAUPLOAD, RAPIDSHARE, ETC!!!!
PLAY DIABLO 2 ALSO DROP!!!! (playing hardcore mode leh, once die must level from the beginning one leh, but the "ping" still okay la).

Pros : - Unlimited usage.
- Affordable price.

Cons : - IP shared (cannot do download from rapidshare, megaupload, hotfiles, etc. And really scared if I'm using eBay, later once the ip is banned, for no reason my account will be ban liao)
- Unstable connection.
- Speed is not as describe, (yes will reach to 2mbps, but only connecting to mutli connection)
- Sometimes cannot connect diablo 2, for no reason.
- Auto drop connection (maybe caused by the rain or something la, somethings only)

that's right.

u see, it's all based on few factors (i may be missing something, in case some expert wanna join the "discussion"):

1) location*location*location
2) time / weather (wirless is sensitive to weather!)
3) amount of users connected * [1] * [2]
4) not forget possible network issues * [3]

so, getting a satisfied wireless broadband service is FATE*LUCK.

if u're at a good location * pretty hours * nice weathers * less users * no serious network issues = GREAT, I"M IN BROADBAND HEAVEN NOW.

if any of the factors is affecting the performance & satisfaction, then u get SO-SO AVERAGE. I MAY CHOOSE THAT OVER THIS.

if more factors causing it, then u have no fate using that particular service/telco = OK I GET IT. IT'S BAD/WORSE/LOUSY/watever u want to call it.


it seems game333 have better luck & fate with MAxis Broadband than UMobile's Braodband smile.gif


oh btw, i HATE MAxis Broadband. Maybe i should start spamming THAT thread cuz of lousy service that I AM getting?

Sigh, my lvl 69 char was dead forever in just a simple lag.
Why Umobile always lag for a sudden one.
And always in a wrong timing.
Now, I realize I waste 2 whole days time already.
Sigh....

@mitodna,
I lost track of my download record. I'm using 3g router for better reception. So, didn't record it.
Previous record about >100gbs/month. Clearly showed why I'm sad now~

@cybpsych,
I'm subscribed to UM with the hope that they won't cap it (based on their history), but unfortunately they did. sad.gif
Speed is really slow right now. I even struggle to log in to steam account.
Previously, I even proud and comparing with my friend how good UM is compare to other broadband.
But now, whenever my friend asked about the speed, my face just turn into red~

8 days to go before they lift up the cap~  cry.gif

P/s: should make a world petition group against throttling and capping practice among ISP in Facebook. Sure 100% of fb users will join it. tongue.gif

Make a world petition group against throttling. You sure loose one lar. Afterall, you are only paying RM68 per month.

still the best FUP speed (384kpbs) for its "unlimited" plan kick in.

I seldom use modem now, only use it on phone, no comment on line cut off.

any unlocked HSDPA usb modem will work with U mobile.
Buy HSDPA/HSUPA modem better cause if next time you want to change to maxis, digi, the HSUPA can give u better upload speed. ( But digi will not give you above 384k upload speed. ) Only maxis offer this faster upload speed, for HSPA network. ( again, still depend where is your location. )
So i suggest you buy huawei E1762.

Thanks for quick reply.

Already called some of the resellers in the list, all of them only doing U Mobile prepaid, don't have this free XFone modem package.

Anyone knows of an actual reseller that has this package?

Anyone here is using this XFone modem currently? Is it unblock for all telcos?
