I got this for my Advance package (640k). I live nearby Bukit Jalil, behind MIMOS (TPM)..Is the result normal for this place? Can't even open my you tube. Plus, it alwiz disconnected if i left my PC for some time.

Using ZTE MF600

Honestly its worth it if you ask me personally. I am an ex-JARING WBB user. The reason why I stopped the service is mainly because i am out of coverage and it is harder for me to get the signal (since there are lots of developments in KL Area). Overall, I've had no funny issues like this crappy Maxis Broadband. Honestly , they should be marketing their broadband as "Maxis Restrictive Broadband - Its just the same as your corp. firewall"

Well , it seems to be worth it at a glance. But at what cost ?. Port blocking ? Unable to p2p ?. I am willing to tolerate if they block the ports and allow p2p traffic till we reach 20GB or our limit. Then they have the rights to block and cap our bandwidth. But this is insane , they block the ports (fine) , and they impose a 20GB limit. It seems to be a joke. Oh yes i am still on this maxis bb , i'll switch back to streamyx once my phone line case has been settled by TM.

This is the worst broadband ever. I think I should have opt'ed for Celcom instead of Maxis in the first place. Its just that their crappy promotion seems to be too good. Heck the agent event told me that p2p wasn't blocked (at that upon of time) and I saw in front of my eyes that it can reach 100-200kilobytes/sec and online gaming wasn't a problem back then. But now things have changed.

Its just nice for surfing the web , thats bout it.

No , not to stir mood or so. You may want to relocate your modem. Keep an eye on your signal. If your RSSI is around -60 or better yet -58. That means your signal is superb and by right you should get good speeds. I am just expressing it out. In terms of price ratio its not worth it. But if you don't have other choices

I would be posting screenshots or some of my heatsink installation and other things

Well you may want to use this DNS address :-

http://andywls.blogspot.com/2007/08/maxis-...sconnected.html

Read more , it does "fix" the disconnection issue

Primary DNS: 202.75.129.101
Alternate DNS: 202.75.129.102

You may change it in the crappy ZTE Router or in network properties. Its better to change it in the modem itself

Like i've said. Maxis blocks pretty much everything. Next they might even block Yahoo! messenger

I will be terminating this maxis service ad I've got my streamyx. I'll sum up and write up a review for this. So goodbye maxis. To me , it was horrible and its a nightmare.

There is nothing much to tweak on Maxis Broadband. Its there and its being controlled by maxis. anyhow , I would like to share this great application with you guys (Hotspot Shield). So if you guys are having some issues with certain applications (i.e low throughput) , give this a shot. It might do the trick. It certainly did for me.

Haiz... my ping sucks. I ping to 202.71.97.81 and I'm getting mixed ping between 80+ms to 1k+ms.     

Might be , maxis might have blocked it after all to ensure fairness. If you really want to access or host DOTA game or anything else using your maxis connection. I would suggest you to use Hamachi instead ;P

They should. If they don't , then make noise. Maxis needs to be pushed , they'll be taking you for granted !

Merged a couple of Maxis Broadband Thread into one !

Recently the HSDPA/UMTS line is like shit. I can log on and data is being sent out but I'm not receiving any. Have been relying on EDGE for nearly a week. Bloody Maxis.
