I'm using maxis wired and maxis ppl send me wireless for me to try with monthly payment of RM68.  i'm in apartment top floor, the speedtest here shows 0.2 to 0.6 mb/s.  but when i try ground, it like 3 to 4, some times 2 mb/s, donno why so much difference hmm.gif .  what i wanted to ask is the limit 3GB monthly and what happened it exceed that? did they charge according or just lower my speed?

The signal take time to climb up to your floor. The higher, the more difficult for the signal to climb up. Cause it can't use lift. Ha.... tongue.gif

It will cap your speed. I use few days and they already cap my speed. Damn dulan. vmad.gif Cause I test it with max. Free ma. whistling.gif

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?

how come i don't see the RM68 package here?

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?

Of course I m not sastify. Paying high price only for browsing? No way. Somemore got cap speed after 3g.

Maxis give me 1 month testing also. Timeup, just return back.

hmm.gif  Hmm, now i'm unsure whether to take it. if it can give a constant speed of 2-3 mbps (which is higher than fixed line) maybe i'll take it, though i know that's just wishful thinking biggrin.gif

Don't ever hope at all. Wireless don't give constant speed as fix line. Unless your fix line speed suck. TMnut line?

Well, I m using maxis wired BB. So much better than wireless. So no reason for me to take this wireless package.

no, using maxis bb but speedtest gives constant speed of 1.7 or 1.8.  i know wireless don't give constant speed but by the reading i got, the lowest i got is still above that, although occasionally less than 1.0

Speedtest won't tell you is your speed is constant. It only tell you what speed you have at there max. I don't test in this way.

Only by real time browsing and dl will tell you if your speed is constant.
