haha, we U users not as violent as those ppl in uniform tat beat a detaine till death de biggrin.gif

On U-Mobile, either u hav 3G/HSDPA or 2G roam on Celcom . the good thing abt U's 3G is tat video call is billed the same as a voice call to all operators........0.008 cent / sec / block...try maxis or celcom and u bleed $$$$

hi guys, i faced the same problem as adammale...
in order to " test run" to check the U 3g connectivity and stability in my area, i had bought the U MOBILE PREPAID, slot it into my existing HUAWEI E220 USB MODEM, but unfortunately fail to connect. The error msg is smth like that : "A connection to remote computer failed to establish, so the port was closed......."

I had configured what lelynx show, but still fail to connect...

any advice??? icon_question.gif

like wat i mentioned earlier, i tested my U-Mobile prepaid sim on a ZTE MF622 using U's default dailer . it connects in a split sec.

fr wat i see did you activated your new U-Mobile sim by making a call yet?

is your credit enough to sustain juz 10 seconds of usage?

my rm17.00 credit was used up in less 2 mins cause the downloading was very fast using Google Chrome , total amt of data was abt 15MB and speed > 750kbps

FINALLY if you see the U-Mobile 3G signal/ Icon in your 3G/Hsdpa fon, MEANING your area is covered by U-Mobile 3G/HSDPA service, so the next sensible thing to do is head to BTS to register your data package at rm68/mth to test b4 the price increase . moreover its still CONTRACTLESS as for now

Well, 3G and EDGE can never be compared as both uses a different technology. However, I do agree that DiGi is really doing well to maintain their service. smile.gif
*
the reason why digi's EdGE is so "good" is because there are less users compared to cmbb and U-mobile

however i am contemplating to try out Maxis as they ady do away wif the contract and if i dun get 3G/HSDPA, i can logon to its EDGE.......and they are also not enforcing the 5GB cap yet as some users download more than 160GB and still no cap rclxms.gif

any advice?

btw, now U-Mobile is still good, esp in the morning........and rite now , nite super peak period also got some congestion but i guess is better than cmbb

that's why i always tell people that it *depends on location* if u can get a decent speed or not when u r using maxis, um, digi, celcom 3G...
u will *never* get the same speed with others whom are using the same service
