The blinking Green for availability of GSM network(GPRS,2G and EDGE,2.5G)still green is you are connected in GSM network either both.... Blinking Blue for availability of WCDMA network (UTMS,3G and HSDPA,3.5G) still blue is you are cinnected in 3G network.. still cyan (blue+green) is you are connected in 3.5G network....

The higher, the more difficult for the signal to climb up. Cause it can't use lift. Ha.... It will cap your speed. I use few days and they already cap my speed. Damn dulan. Wireless maxis is suitable for browsing only. Not good for other purpose and heavy user like me. |

OIC. so you satisfied enough to keep it? how much u have to pay monthly, RM68 also?It will cap your speed. I use few days and they already cap my speed. Damn dulan. Wireless maxis is suitable for browsing only. Not good for other purpose and heavy user like me. how come i don't see the RM68 package here? http://maxis.com.my/personal/broadband/wireless_allplans.asp i think i have to do further testing in apt cause when it's near window, the speed definitely so much higher than fixed line (wireless, above 2.5 mbps all the time). so if i can find a place for an ideal speed, i might be interested to take the offer and upgrade itt o the 12GB package. how much i have to pay by the way, do i pay the base RM68 plus some charges or straight pay RM178 per month?
