Hi Everyone
I'm gonna need some advice here. I just recently arrived to KL,Malaysia for my degree course. Soon as I arrived here, I started to subscribe one to one of the ISP. As I'm not a Malaysian, No Streamyx.
My room mate(he's a foreigner too) suggests me to subscribe with Celcom. Then I subscribed with Celcom, the story begins
.
Before I sign up, I did ask the lousy dealer like 3 times "is there any data or bandwidth limit for each month?" and he said "No, No Limit". I even stated to him clearly that I'm a heavy downloader (though I don't use Torrent or Lime Wire), his answer is "No Problem".
He recommends me for D68 Package and there's a great network coverage at the hostel I live (Vista Komanwel). But I chose D98 as I want faster and better speed (that what i expect
). I was just activated last week on Tuesday.
Yes as he said, I got a good signal. Never goes down below 3 bars. But HSDPA is not very consistent.
Now, I'm a bit disappointed especially with their unstable connection. Disconnected, Disconnected ,Disconnected.... And what's more? I just read here that D98 plans are also eligible to be capped. I even haven't download large files as my rapidshare account has expired already.
I came from a country which still don't have a well and proper infrastructure of internet system. I thought it would be much better in here.
So, I would like to get your's opinions on what should I do? Terminate from Celcom and subscribe to another provider ? (may be Maxis or U Mobile ? )
or should I just wait a little bit longer for the time they might improve their service?
and Off Topic, my modem is 3M Mobile's H10 HSDPA Modem. If I subscribe to another provider can I still use it?
psst..!
Set network mode to GPRS/EDGE Only and you won't be disconnected from net.
you live there eh. You got more options , you may want to try JARING Wireless. They don't cap your bandwidth. but you'll have to pay something up front and you'll be tied to a 12-month contract. Maxis isn't recommended since you are a heavy downlaoder and they'll cap your bandwidth to 256Kbps once you have reached your 20GB limitI'm gonna need some advice here.
