QUOTE(yongkailoon @ Feb 18 2009, 08:47 AM) Well for people on the move, the download speed is usually more important than upload not unless the user always upload data maybe like images etc. broo,fr your observation here, do u think celcom hav finally finished wif the so called server upgrade tat is suppose to hav ended on 12-02-09 ? cause i seen a cmbb user register speed of over 1 Mbps juz now |

Maybe the upgrade isn't completely done yet and will be done from area to area.fr your observation here, do u think celcom hav finally finished wif the so called server upgrade tat is suppose to hav ended on 12-02-09 ? cause i seen a cmbb user register speed of over 1 Mbps juz now |

QUOTE(de4thscythell @ Feb 17 2009, 07:33 PM) May i answer some of your questions there i prefer to say no for this.. Why standalone modem? The modem will generates heat when you use it. More heat emitted especially when you're downloading stuff If you're using your mobile phone as modem, the heat produced due to continuous usage as modem might shorten your mobile phone lifespan Someone correct me if i'm wrong plus, using 3g mobile phone might give better signal since i'm using it & my housemate use huawei modem,he only got 1 bar,me got 3 on v3xx. of course it cant be translated directly to the speed due to some factor of congestion & etc. but if no congestion, for sure my speed will b better than him! |

I just received a call from Celcom CS regarding my complaint. As usual, they said no problem found...
They never say anything about upgrade... Maybe upgrade is just an excuse (instead of saying some problem here and there). QUOTE(yongkailoon @ Feb 18 2009, 08:54 AM) |

From that part, i ditch from celcom to digi even though digi offers low speed than celcom, but their CS is much better. They never say anything about upgrade...

The only thing I noticed recently is that the capping will start about 20-30 seconds after every connection. Last time was about 5-10 seconds. This measure will make people to register fast speed in speedtest.net. Making new or potential customers think that Celcom BB is fast. Very clever deception by Celcom.They never say anything about upgrade... Maybe upgrade is just an excuse (instead of saying some problem here and there). |
