This is my first bill, view online.
My package is RM88 explore sign-up at road show.
RM10 for stamp duty, so RM98 for this month, minus RM100 deposit, i no need to pay anything this month.

1 thing not good is digi still not able to check total of usage when login to OCS from time to time.
We only can trace using modem usage stats.
I know maxis can check online, at least we know how many actual total usage up to date.

i can say digi bb is stable, i can get 1MB average.
Even i went to some place like out of coverage ( Sekinchan ), i'm still able to use EDGE at least, still able to access email and facebook, web browsing. Slow but still can load the page.

If compare to WiMax, if no coverage, you will totally not able to get online.

so Digi bb is suitable if you travel a lot, or need mobile internet.

hi guys, i finally managed get my digi bb extreme package to work....... hmm but it doesnt really impress me much compared to my previous streamyx 2mb. so far im getting only bout 1900-2000+kbps download frm speedtest, my rm77 streamyx package can do about 1800kpbs d/l.. zzzzz . nw testing torrent d/l , but still not much different than my streamyx. is there something wrong here? im seeing ppl getting 4-7mb connection frm this package, while im getting a lousy 2mb.

another question is, do u guys usually get faster connection after midnite? im also havnt cancel my current streamyx connection, so is it possible that i can combine both digi + streamyx to make my internet much faster for d/l n etc?
*
I'm using Explore package.

1. No different at midnight. I can get 1MB average even at rainy day.
2. Cannot combine digi bb with streamyx. Computer will connect to internet which 1 come first. You will not able to get 2MB+2MB=4M at the same time.

i notice that streamyx giving some customer 2MB even they are RM88/77 1MB at some area. This is bonus. My office is the one.
I'm using streamyx 1MB RM88 also, and streamyx give me 1Mb only.

Why you apply for digi extreme if you already streamyx? 2MB by streamyx is good enought for you at RM77.
Maybe you travel a lot. If not, better apply upgrade to streamyx 4Mb, only RM160.
But now you need to pay RM77+RM188 for both.

Or maybe you will cancel streamyx later. Then you might need to buy 3G wifi modem for internet sharing. It cost another RM300-RM450.
Anyway extreme package is HSUPA speed, you will get better upload speed.

Hi,

Im living in green avenue condo, bkt jalil.

1. Can i use my current sim card n update it wit 3g?
2. Also if 3g is not available will it drop back to edge?
3. Any promo currently? I'm really not a fan of extra usage charges...
*
1. No. Digi bb only stand alone use, cannot combine with your postpaid sim or prepaid sim.
2. YES. Look like your place don't have 3G coverage.
3. Normally sign up at road show will give you RM88 for explore package. But you don't know where it will be there. Discover normally no promo, standard RM58 even at road show.

Thanks for the reply

Hm.. so do i need to change to a new sim card? Or memang cant combine with phone service at all?
Coz if not i hav to subscribe to edge to use together. I dont wan to seperate hp.
*
look like you want broadband to be use in your phone to get online.
RM66 for EDGE data unlimited to your postpaid. For me not worth it if only get EDGE speed.

What i do is i set up an adhoc network on my laptop and i'll be able to share my internet connection over wifi. No need to get another router. You can google "adhoc network" for more information...
*
but you need both computer ON at the same time.
Otherwise you need 3G wifi router modem.

I have been getting EDGE very often recently. What happen to the DIGI connection nowadays? It's been pretty bad.

Would you mind share how did u set your network to WCDMA or HSDPA only? I did not use any router btw. It's a direct connection from Digi BB modem ( USB) and i can't find the network connection which can bet set to WCDMA from the software installed inside my laptop.

Thank you.
*
for me no problem.

Do not connect first. Launch the Digi bb software.

go to Tools > Options > Network >
Network type : select WCDMA only

then apply.

wait few seconds, then connect and see.

now how can I make it work with Vista/Windows 7 ?? Help anyone... I've been googling for many days now...
*
what modem are you using? What test speed you get?
I'm using Vista, no problem at all. Upload many files every day from 10k- 500k.
Even upload 4MB photo to facebook also no problem.

Suggest you remove the digi software and re-install back.

i think the Discover RM48 is
RM53 ( buy your own modem )
http://www.digi.com.my/broadband/packages_byo.html

then another RM5 discount if you sign up auto debit.

So is RM48

Modem can get outside RM199.

So any Digi dealer / Center can apply.

I don't think you can upload a 4MB photo because Facebook automatically rescale the resolution and JPEG quality prior to uploading. For my case, if I upload pictures via the JAVA interface it works. However if I use the non-java interface where I want to just post a simple picture, it will not work. The same goes for video uploading. No matter what browser I use, it never works.

I don't know if this is a Facebook problem since its service quality has been notorious from the start. All I know is that it works early this year even when using Digi.
*
i know facebook will auto compress to low resolution.
When using java, it only take 10 second to upload 1 photo.
When using non-java, it will take about 1 minute to upload.
After upload, both will auto resize to lower resolution.

I also sometime having uploading issue when using facebook using java interface.
First time upload is ok. After that i i want to upload more, it will not able to upload pictures.
I think facebook got problem on the java upload script. Even my streamyx also fail to upload.
I have to restart computer to upload, then it will be fine.

will try out how is the speed in my area soon


Added on October 17, 2009, 7:44 pmany1 can teach me how to differentiate unlock an lock modem???
if let say my modem is digi and can read celcom sim mean unlock?
*
most of the modem selling outside is unlock. ( means you can use others service provider )
Even you sign up with digi broadband, the modem E160 given by them also unlock. ( my insert another celcom sim 384k, it work )
but you need the setup the different APN.
The modem given by digi will auto detect APN setting when installed digi firmware.
