I need to know these things really badly because I don't trust what they said when I asked them 1.Is there a download limit in a month? 2.P2P connection allowed? 3.Any hidden charges or penalty when terminating the service? 4.Is the IP , dynamic or static? The sales guy keep saying no no no but I really DOUBT it.... as I sell maxis broadband last time and really know all the dirty tricks they used This post has been edited by Wolf516: Jul 14 2008, 08:43 PM |

I still got the same problem and cannot connect. so i just went up to the U Mobile store and ask them for help. to my disappointment, the person that helped me said that they're just having some network issue and that's why i can't connect. i came again a few days later and still i got the same problem, i went to the store again and the guy who helped me this time tested a few things and concluded that the problem is with my MODEM!!! it's broken and can't seem to connect in 3G mode. so i went to lowyat service center and got the modem replaced in less that 10 minutes without even asking a single question. moral of the story here is that, for those having bundled ZTE modem, be careful if you start having "Limited Service" or got signal but the status is only "C" rather than "PC" as your modem might be problematic. 2nd, don't waste your time with U Mobile customer service, they have no idea about the service that they're offering thus those "Sorry your area is out of coverage area" respond to my problems. 3rd, if u think you have problems with your modem, go ahead to the service center and get it replaced. such a pity that a good and visionary company such as u mobile - their internet access is OK and their mobile TV service is GREAT! - have such poor customer service. currently i would not commit myself to their other service until they become more experienced and beef up their customer service. anyway despite all those rumblings, i highly recommend U Mobile Broadband service, better than Maxis and Celcom (i've used both before) for me la at least |

this is what i gather from many "broadband" forum..
########################################################################## Celcom D68.... normal speed 384kbps ....once u reach 5GB monthly thingy...then cap at 80kbps....until next month. (register and cancel Celcom D68 twice) Thumb Up, Coverage superb in my testing at Setapak and Sentul and my hometown..Sitiawan. Digi Edge... normal speed 256kbps but latency killing my surfing,frequently no activity.. No Cap as far i know. download not stable!!! OK only Coverage superb in my testing at Setapak and Sentul and my hometown..Sitiawan. ########################################################################### Currently,i am testing U-Mobile...... Paying on D58(until end Dec)......my download can achieve up to 2.5Mbps but usually only 1Mbps consistently downloading. Use up my 5GB "fair usuage policy" within two days.....and now been cap at 384kbps.. Coverage is fair as i only get only one to two bar signal on my USB AirCard on Setapak and Sentul. Will be testing at my hometown this coming end of the month. I am happy with U-Mobile even though they cap me at 384kpbs unlike Celcom D68 cap me to 80 kbps.. ############################################################################ |
