Of course it's biased. After having used Celcom which keeps touting the widest coverage and unbeatable speed while paying through your nose for dismal connection quality, you cannot afford not to be biased. Celcom's 3G coverage in the supposedly elite area of Sierramas Valencia and Bandar Sri Damansara is pretty bad - never mind HSDPA (non existent). True U Mobile is not available everywhere, but they are not boasting about having widest coverage (they do have the widest HSDPA coverage though). Most people I know turn to wireless broadband not so much to be mobile but because they are looking for alternative to Streamyx.

To be honest, I do expect U Mobile to go downhill sooner or later. But at least it's not charging people a bomb for it. It's a good RM40 cheaper than Celcom, and the CSRs are much friendlier too.

Just set the default profile with one exception:

In the APN column set to static, and the name of the APN to my3g.

geeee....tomorrow go apply surf with u package for a trial

wch5274 (is that your car plate number ah? ) ,

Out of curiosity where are you using your U Mobile (area)?

THanks!

my u mobile supplied modem (for the U Surf 78 plan) has died on me AGAIN!. this is my 2nd modem, i got the 1st one replaced for not being able to be connected to 3G network, and just now is went dead. that's 2 cases for me after 6 months of usage.

i don't think i can rely too much on the supplied modem and i think i rather go and buy a more trusted and reliable modem and later try to get a replacement for the u surf modem and maybe just use it as a backup.... sigh...

since this morning dc every now and then...

so i set my modem to auto reconnect....
damn mah fun.
