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


Speed from speedtest:

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?

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.

@chuafc2006: Get a HSDPA modem, it is very cheap nowadays. I'm using one as well but for my Celcom. Well, you can get less than RM 370 nowadays.

Yes can.

Never compare a phone to a modem.

PC fair will sell HSDPA modem?

Huawei E220? Saw one seller at Garage Sales selling these modems at RM 299 plus postage.

Yes, its broadband service is only available in Klang Valley at the moment.
Looks like you have to find for other alternative such as Celcom or Streamyx.

Tested before in Malacca, end of July. Cannot.

After you have tested, please post your outcome here.

I think I used to have "PC" on my Celcom broadband.
I'm also getting it on my DiGi EDGE.

I believe Maxis has abolished their contract system.

It has, anything stated in the T&C will be implemented sooner or later.
Just that it hasn't implemented, thus it is time for the users to maximise the abuse!

By the way,

Well, I can be seen at most of the active threads on this section.

It depends but I do most of my surfing at nights and I'm acknowledged by the users' experience that it sucks at nights.
So far my DiGi EDGE still serves me well and I can still use this rate until next year's August.
I think by then, other providers should have rolled out their attractive plans.

I cannot deny the fact that the rate is very attractive for the speed that I'll be getting.
However, if I cannot surf the Internet at night, I will be freaking annoyed. Imagine, after a tiring day at office from 8.30 a.m.-5.30 p.m., I am so excited to login to LYN or Facebook for my daily Internet dose but due to the users congestion issue, it has totally stopped for doing so.

Anyway, my Streamyx account in hometown will be terminated by June because nobody will be there to use it. So, I still need my DiGi EDGE too as it has full signal over there, if I were to subscribe to U Mobile, will it have coverage over there?

Of course, U- Mobile will be in my top list when I reside in Klang Valley.
I'll be residing at areas somewhere in PJ, are these areas covered by U-Mobile HSDPA?

Yeah true. I still need to maintain my DiGi EDGE SIM card to be used when back to good old PD.

Yeah, I will take this advice into serious consideration. I heard the only hassle of this U-Mobile registration is I need to go all the way to BTS to register?

Well, not that problem. Of course I know where is BTS just that the hassle.

U-Mobile is cheap for HSDPA speed however during the peak hours gonna slaughter one to death.

The users here can tell you more than that.
They can only surf at those weird hours or afternoon and 8.00 p.m.-1.00 a.m. is a total torture.

I manually searched the networks from my modem this afternoon and discovered this:



Discovered this in my hometown, Port Dickson (30km from Seremban). Does it mean that my house is with U-Mobile 3G coverage?

I would like to buy a normal prepaid SIM pack to try the signal first, can I do that with just a prepaid SIM?
