Finally, DiGi launch their 3G services on 21th Feb 2009, but the pricing and coverage are quite disappointed.

*sigh* tengok pricing pun dah tahu... I should stick with EDGE instead... I wonder how many celcom user will ditch to digi..
i want to see the progress of this new service and user feedback, and also waiting of digi revise their package so it'll create more competitive between mobile ISPs This post has been edited by soundsyst64: Feb 18 2009, 07:05 PM |

being a newcomer to 3G in Malaysia, price cannot be competitive yet as the infrastructure cost is high

If the speed is stable, no frequent dc, able to reach 7.2Mbps (dreaming~~), it worth for that price. If the service just like Maxis and Celcom, what for apply for it?
Btw, they didn't provide only Data SIM without the modem package? |

DiGi will be just another small time isp in Malaysia which will not be able to take on the megabits challenge.
It would cost them a lot for international leased circuits, setting up their own fiber infrastructure backbone and data centres.It's going to be a hefty investment for them.When their subscriber grows, they'll face the same big problem of sustaining the service quality and ensuring that bandwidth is enough for everyone. Look at Maxis, they already imposed line barring even after a few gigabytes of data traffic. How do you think DiGi a much smaller company can pull off a stunt better than them? |

For sure they won't recommend that package for you, but u insist to subscribe, so ahead and enjoy the GPRS speed.

The coverage is just so dissappointing. Zoom out to see the whole klang valley and only small area is covered. LoL
Oh btw, I think 10GB of data per month is the best so far offered by telco in Malaysia. If you really using it for 'mobile' stuff for sure you won't exceed the limit. This post has been edited by z3171600: Feb 18 2009, 08:25 PM |

I actually hoping DiGi will release some packages with the same price with the current EDGE services, but i don't see any.
Ya, 10GB is sufficient since i use the mobile bb as secondary at my 4x 2mbps line at home as main. |

I wouldn't mind paying if they guarantee the service quality to be on top notch most of the time. Is there any best effort basis promise mentioned in the term and condition clause?

QUOTE(itsmeefund @ Feb 18 2009, 10:06 PM) should b ok if the speed and connection excellent! A friend of mine has been selected as a tester at Mutiara Damansara and he said that the speed was consistent between 2-4Mbps and sometimes peaked to 6Mbps. But the network is still unloaded thus the great speed. I am sure that the speed will go down to ~1Mbps when more people comes into the network.For the price, I would prefer to pay the premium for a better service than Celcom and Maxis*. Premium means less people in the network, so less congestion. I would say this is smart move on DiGi's part to meet customer's expectations. * I am still a Celcom daypass user since sometimes I have to work in areas where Maxis and DiGi does not even have coverage. I gave up on Maxis a long time ago. |

Ya, when there is only a few user, the speed is great. Last time i heard b4, 1 HSDPA transmitter support only 10 users simultaneously. Is it ture?
What is everyone wants premium service and all subscribe it and throw away their maxis, celcom, u-mobile....  This post has been edited by amyhs99: Feb 18 2009, 10:48 PM |

After ur 1 year tenure, the commitment fee is still RM158 per month
Laptop RM999 only for first 100 mail drop invitation customers only <---- >_<" Afetr that its way higher but still lower than the RRP price stated ad its only broadband only SIM (no voice calls) So to those who would like to add the service into their existing postpaids during the promotional period, 1 word = Sorry This post has been edited by shinjite: Feb 19 2009, 12:21 AM |

Yes, coverage is quite disappointing but then this is just a pre-launch and probably there will be more coverage area in the coming weeks.

I see this as a testing phase for them. Go with a limited launch first. Then after feedback and testing, go big.

They still didn't provide data sim only or add 3g services to mobile phones? I can't find a thing in DiGi's website.
 Actually DiGi's 3G coverage should be wide, i can almost detect DiGi 3G almost all area in KL, even my hometown, Kampar, i still detecting 3G signals. Maybe really is a testing and the real thing would be big.  This post has been edited by amyhs99: Feb 19 2009, 12:40 AM |

QUOTE(amyhs99 @ Feb 19 2009, 12:36 AM) If DiGi was able to run at almost full speed, let's say 6Mbps, and free a usb modem, with rm128/month. expensive? thats for the promotional period....if launched worldwide, avg around 1mbps-3mbps depending on usages and locations existing postpaid customers WILL not be able to add in the 3G service (even though within coverage areas) during the promotional period. They need to purchase the bundle packages. Only the sim cards that comes with the package bundle are 3g enabled. As for the type of sim cards (whether 64/128k), DiGi will let us know This post has been edited by shinjite: Feb 19 2009, 12:41 AM |

Lets say u say run it on full 7.2Mbps, how long u need to reach the 10GB quota?
If u can dun on 7.2Mbps, don't tell me you wont download anything and just light surfing. I prefer a stable connection rather than speed but dc every second.  |

Well, I guess it is already covered but have not been fully tested or something like that so it is better for them to not put areas that are not guaranteed to have yet in their list of coverage.

Sometimes i'll switch to 3g in many areas when i have very very low signal,
For example i go in jungles and i see my phone is on DiGi 3g, but no line also. Hope DiGi covers nationwide and provide excellent service when their full launch. |

P1 is gaining the momentum aldy to cover more areas
recently, puchong, bkt jalil, sri petaling and etc was covered i reckon it will take Digi at least 3-4 more months to cover most of the KV areas. |

Actually i dun mind to sign on the dotted line as long as the speed is stable enough without dc.....
and of course coverage wide enough  but a bit strange though nothing is announced in their official website..... only this -> http://www.digi.com.my/whatshot/promotions/priority/index.do |

Nice one, just now I also port in to Digi 3G network with my 3G phone.
I restart the phone and set it only WCDMA until it get bar on the phone. After open my case , I found out I have a 128k white Digi Sim. So I wonder those subscribe Digi 3G also using this SIM ?  This post has been edited by suyee: Feb 22 2009, 02:32 PM |

the big problem is broadband connection will be throttled to 64kbps when the quota 10GB is breached.
come on digi spy. smaller u-mobile can offer better than 64kbps 'broadband'. RM49 P1 for 400kbps faster than rm158 digi 3g. |

Good News~ to all DiGi Internet subscribers who subscribe during the soft launch at Ikano, and the coming event at DC SS2 on 26th Feb – 28th Feb 09! DiGi have decided to increase monthly quota usage from 10GB to 50GB Besides that, customers will still be enjoying up to 7.2mbps speed within the 12 months contract. Note: The above quota and speed is applicable only for customers who signed up during the soft launch campaign at Ikano and DC SS2 This post has been edited by miecca: Feb 26 2009, 08:33 AM |

seriously i thought about signing up....
but after a while when emotions faded and logic starts to kick in, some of my views: 1) coverage is so limited for the time being, i dun live / work at taman tun, but i'm paying the full sum - rm128 for EDGE??? 2) i dun need a laptop at rm999 with DUAL CORE processor only although it's cheap.... 3) i'll be hooked to it for at least 12 months, or i have to pay rm600 to compensate... so i've decided - wait for digi 3g unlimited data plan. i'll get my own modem |

I'll make sure I just pay RM1855 for the whole thing after I terminate my subsription after 2 months
After all, I still gain hell a lot, I don't need the broadband anyway, I just need the laptop. RM999 + RM600 for the modem, retail price for both already hitting RM3K. I gain a lot |

i hope there won't be any network congestion when celcom / maxis bb users swarm switching over to digi
but well actually i'm not against a higher price since it will prevent ppl signing up helps maintain the speed |

I notice that , the limited quote is updated to 50GB per month.
Broadband Promo Package Features • Download speed: up to 3.6Mbps (FREE Trial of up to 7.2Mbps) • Upload speed: up to 384kbps (FREE Trial of up to 2Mbps) • Quota: 50GB (connection will be throttled to 64kbps when the quota is breached) • FREE Broadband E230 HSPA modem (with free MicroSD card) Terms and Conditions • Price: RM128/month for 6 months (normal price at RM158). Price returns to RM158 after 6 months. • Contract period: 12 months. Should the customer decide to terminate the service before the contract expires, an early termination penalty will be imposed at either the cost of the modem (RM600) or the remaining balance of the contract value, whichever is lower. • Advance payment: 2 x monthly fee (RM256). • FREE Trial of 7.2Mbps speed is at DiGi's discretion and valid for contract period of 12 months. |

You can force it hook in to Digi 3G and start using 3G broadband instead of EDGE. I am doing it every day when I am in Digi 3G coverage and change my phone modem to only accept WCDMA signal.

First of all, your sim card needs to be tagged and also the APN has to be the correct 1 to access
As for current HSDPA users, the new APN is able to detect EDGE as well so there is no need to change the APN anymore |

What I found today quite surprising.
My N81 (No HSDPA, but got UMTS) with EDGE sim card able to detect 3G at Kota Samarahan, Sarawak. It starts when the network went down about 10 minutes ago. I spot the 3G logo around 5:16pm today while playing game, and it repeats every 1 minute until the network is up at 5:25PM I believe they're doing some testing there. Can't wait for that.

Looking by the speedtest results, MMORPG games on DiGi Broadband should be fine but games that requires really low latency such as shooter games will not be good on a wireless broadband. |

All in good time. Something this good, no need to rush into things. I'd rather Digi enforce the existing areas with solid and stable broadcast connection. Otherwise, they'll end up like Streamyx, chewing off more than they could.

currently i heard digi offering 3G data package only.
so existing digi mobile users cannot use the 3G. you must apply new line for digi 3G internet. my friend had to apply a new line specially for internet connection. correct me if i am wrong. |

RM158 just for 10GB is way too expensive IMHO. I guess DiGi needs to squeeze out subscribers because they need to cover back their 3G infrastructure costs which will soon be obsolete.
When TM launches HSBB and Wimax goes mainstream with over 10mbps, then maybe they'll lower the cost. |

It they want to give 10mbps or more HSDPA to major cities they need to pump enough bandwidth to their transmission towers. Put the pricing and packaging into perspective. If TM offers 4Mbps at the same price of their 1Mbps ADSL, they would be cannibalizing their existing packages and their total ARPU and revenue will drop tremendously. I would expect that TM will only play a wholesale role which eventually they would resell their Hyperspeed infrastructure to other ISPs and operators. They don't have a nationwide fiber links like TM and it costs a bomb to lay them now. The only option for them is rent from others. As for WiMax, I would agree to your statement except to the fact that the spectrum that we are using in Malaysia (eg. 2.3Ghz) is not the standard that everyone else is using all around the world for WiMax deployment. Scalability of devices and network equipments still have a long, long way to go. Furthermore WiMax players still do not have any other solid revenue streams like voice. For TM and the other celcos, the voice revenue is actually subsidizing for their broadband. |

The pricing issue also may be Digi is not fully own the 3G spectrum license. When TM launches HSBB and Wimax goes mainstream with over 10mbps, then maybe they'll lower the cost. Actually it just lease or some agreement with Timedotcom. Therefore , 3rd party cost also include kua.

The maximum HSDPA device can go now is 7.2 Mbps, no plan to go higher than that (14.4Mbps).They don't have a nationwide fiber links like TM and it costs a bomb to lay them now.

QUOTE(fat16 @ Mar 7 2009, 09:45 AM) digi rent timedotcom fiber. As you can see it'll be very expensive for DiGi to maintain a broadband network in a long run. They are just beginning to invest in 3G technology now from scratch.digi lease 3G license for 10 years. As more and more subscribers subscribe to them, They'll have to rely more on Time's infrastructure. 7.2mbps is the max speed HSDPA can go as mentioned by p4n6 during low network load. When more people log on, it will get lowered to something as bad as what we are experienceing with Streamyx. Price will still be more expensive than landlines because DiGi is highly reliant on others. As far as I know only TM(TM wholesale & Fiberail incld.), Jaring's SuperJaring, Time and TNB owns extensive fiber infrastructures in the country. |

The use of Yellowman has toned down. on the envelope color, well, this month's theme for the envelope is the insurance policy thingy, so basically to says that you're protected even in the jungle. They have a different ads on the billing envelope every month, nothing is wrong with that. Well, you should observe better. What kind of pressure are they having? The pressure of going number 2 in the market? Or the pressure of launching 3G in time? Recruitment of locals and special privileges because of pressure? I don't see your point of pressure there. Creativity has gone down, yea, this I would agree, but they had been restricted from 3G from the beginning when others, including Umobile had the license few years back. With 3G coming, I believe they could offer more..... |

Having Digi to offer 3G is definitely a great idea to drive the mobile broadband to the next level. As we can see Maxis, Celcom and U Mobile have been offering the service for a few years but to an extend I will say it's a pity and not utilizing the technology to its fullest. I hope Digi will be able to introduce some innovation to how to use the 3G services the mobile broadband way.
Or maybe the mobile operators don't have adequate experience in selling broadband and they have been miscalculating the customer experience in the broadband world. If you ask me, I will say Digi moving in to the 3G now is a little too late judging that in less than 5 years, LTE will surface, can Digi gets their ROI back from 3G in 5 years? We can ask Maxis and Celcom the same question. |

Do I need to explain further about the quotas in Malaysian companies? DiGi is not a foreign company but Telenor is. Why Telenor was not allowed to retain their company name in Malaysia unlike their Pakistan operations? Is Telenor allowed to take full control of DiGi? I remember reading that they were required to divest their 60% shares soon in DiGi to allow locals to share control. |

I think we should support digi in order to make digi the better out of it, i believe this promotion release is to see the feedback from the new customers about the digi internet. after all, if you understand the business marketing strategy, statistics and analysis must come first before launching its ultimate master plan. i can see they are making a change and opportunities for a new era of mobile internet broadband in malaysia as they quoted "rediscover what broadband should be" fits well in their vision. They are pushing their competitors' limit by offering 7.2mb/s, it's the only personal used broadband that offers such speed. If their service is good and satisfaction guaranteed, i doubt that malaysians would not pay more for such quality speedy service. As i was browsing through the feedback in this thread, it seems rather promisingly enough that many are satisfied with digi internet. I hope all of us would give their full pledge support towards digi. correct me if i'm wrong in my views above.

7.2mbps will be phasing out soon.
By end of this year other mobile operators around Asia such as those in HK, Singapore and Australia will launch a (3x3) MIMO version of HSDPA increasing the current 7.2mbps to 3X which could harnest a top speed of 21.6mbps. It will be called HSPA+ or E-HSDPA(Enhanced HSDPA) technology. This upgrade is equivalent to what EDGE is to GPRS as it is called 3.75G mobile. After this LTE will replace the 3rd generation as 4G. Sierra Wireless 306/307  Huawei i-Mo Next Generation HSPA modem (Touted as the next big thing after the E220 USB modem)  -Combines HSPA+ modem and built in WiFi Router -Has a micro-SD slot built in for external storage Huawei E182E  This post has been edited by iipohbee: Mar 12 2009, 04:49 PM |

Signals can be picked up but you won't be able to access it
When I was at Jusco Bukit Tinggi Klang, I detected 3.5G signals as well (suspect its from Setia Alam since it is the nearest location that has coverage), I was able to connect to it but eventually it will disconnect by itself and revert back to DiGi EDGE |

And we wouldn't know what happens to the early subscribers as well, if after 1 year will it drop to 2mbps? No news This post has been edited by shinjite: Mar 18 2009, 10:20 AM |

I personally think that DIGI 3G broadband is the BEST after the alliances with TIME DOT COM.. As we know that TDC is the 100% fiber optic trunk network. From Penisular Malaysia to East Malaysia, direct fiber link to international route..(no need to go through telekom).. Therefore, DIGI 3G will be fully benefit of the infra..
Picture worth thousand word.. Look at the infra diagram http://www.time.com.my/corporate/special_fibre.asp TIME DOT COM infra An Information Super Highway Introducing Malaysia's most comprehensive fibre optic communications infrastructure, TIME's Information Super Highway, a project with a capital investment of over RM3.8 billion. With regional fibre optic cables running along the major highways and complemented by submarine fibre optic cables along the coastlines, augmented where necessary with wireless, digital microwave and satellite connectivity, we can provide you with an advanced and reliable communication capability to suit your every need locally and internationally. Regional fibre optic cables Our land-based fibre optics stretch over 3,600 km in Peninsular Malaysia with lines criss-crossing the country and connecting into the main network along the 850 km North-South Expressway. Submarine fibre optic cables The submarine fibre optic cables totaling 1,624 km are laid along the coastline of Peninsular from Pulau Langkawi, Kedah to Kota Bharu, Kelantan connecting to 25 coastal sites. Digital microwave and satellite The digital microwave and satellite links cover remote places or areas not yet serviceable by our fibre optic cables. International investment We are currently providing access to over 240 countries and territories around the world. With investments in most Asian and Trans-Pacific cable systems as well as direct access to satellite facilities, we are able to offer international telecommunications services to carriers, resellers, multinational corporations and consumers in Malaysia and around the world. Our international partners include: * Optus and Telstra in Australia * Hong Kong Telecom International in Hong Kong * MCI in USA * Indosat in Indonesia * Kokusai Denshin Denwa (KDD) in Japan * Jabatan Telekom Brunei in Brunei * Philippines Long Distance Telephony (PLDT) in Philippines * Singapore Telecom in Singapore * Telephone Organisation of Thailand (TOT) in Thailand Our international facilities include: * Two world class international gateway switches (ATT5ESS) * Direct fibre links to Singapore, Thailand, Australia, Hong Kong, Japan, USA and Indonesia * Undersea cables: Asia Pacific Cable Network (APCN) South East Asia-Middle East-Western Europe 3 (SEA-ME-WE 3) North Pacific Cable (NPC) Trans Pacific Cable 4 (TPC 4) Fibre Optic Link Around the Globe (FLAG) Singapore-Malaysia Cable (SMC) Malaysia-Thailand-East (MTE) Thailand-Malaysia-West (TMW) * Satellite Facility: AsiaSat * A world class international network management centre, opens all year round This post has been edited by sugen: Mar 18 2009, 10:59 AM |

Is inter related la ... 3G or any internet service provider providing the first phase date transfer.. Eg.. TM Streamyx.. the 1st phase is ADSL modem through copper tel line.. Here.. 1st phase is 3G wireless technology.. 2nd phase, 3G data will reach DIGI nearest tower station.. Then, the data is transfer via LAND line(in here will be TIME DOT COM fiber optic backbond that cover the entire peninsular ), 3rd.. will route through
TIME DOT COM direct service Two world class international gateway switches (ATT5ESS) * Direct fibre links to Singapore, Thailand, Australia, Hong Kong, Japan, USA and Indonesia * Undersea cables: Asia Pacific Cable Network (APCN) South East Asia-Middle East-Western Europe 3 (SEA-ME-WE 3) North Pacific Cable (NPC) Trans Pacific Cable 4 (TPC 4) Fibre Optic Link Around the Globe (FLAG) Singapore-Malaysia Cable (SMC) Malaysia-Thailand-East (MTE) Thailand-Malaysia-West (TMW) * Satellite Facility: AsiaSat * A world class international network management centre, opens all year round P/S:hmn.. u really think that you can use DIGI 3G signal & talk directly to internet base in USA via 3G signal? haha.. i just kiding only ma.. don't get angry...

QUOTE(sugen @ Mar 18 2009, 11:58 AM) I personally think that DIGI 3G broadband is the BEST after the alliances with TIME DOT COM.. As we know that TDC is the 100% fiber optic trunk network. From Penisular Malaysia to East Malaysia, direct fiber link to international route..(no need to go through telekom).. Therefore, DIGI 3G will be fully benefit of the infra.. How u know DiGi using TDC truck Network ger?? I heard tat DiGi 3G is using Vendor HuaWei??Picture worth thousand word..

I am saying DIGI would benefit from TDC infrastructure...Huawei is the 3G equipment vendor...This include setting up 3G infra & network... Bare in mind, 3G is the 1st phase..After that, data is transmit on LAND line...Pls read my post# 369 again so that u have a better picture where is the position of 3G services...

currently I'm using Celcom (RM 68) package but I'm thinking of changing to another operator. Just came back from DIGI & take some brochure
It stated : RM 66/ month for unlimited data My questions is : What is the limit of the data per month. Celcom also said unlimited but after i used my 5GB/month, they capped my my download speed to 128kbps... Any idea friends...?? |

For those who already have modems, you can register the broadband service only and pay up the advance payment. No contract required

Shah Alam at Setia Alam, thats all I can give you because the website still not up yet (Expect around late evening to be updated)
If you use cell phone EDGE only, it will run on EDGE lo One thing they made a blunder, they should write off the Klang Valley wordings in the advert. Crap, Klang is not even covered yet also >_> This post has been edited by shinjite: Mar 19 2009, 12:57 PM |

Features
• Download speed: up to 3.6Mbps (FREE Trial of up to 7.2Mbps) • Upload speed: up to 384kbps (FREE Trial of up to 2Mbps) • Quota: 50GB (connection will be throttled to 64kbps when the quota is breached) • FREE Broadband E230 HSPA modem (with free MicroSD card) Terms and Conditions • Price: RM128/month for 6 months (normal price at RM158). Price returns to RM158 after 6 months. • Contract period: 12 months. Should the customer decide to terminate the service before the contract expires, an early termination penalty will be imposed at either the cost of the modem (RM600) or the remaining balance of the contract value, whichever is lower. • Advance payment: 2 x monthly fee (RM256). • FREE Trial of 7.2Mbps speed is at DiGi's discretion and valid for contract period of 12 months. I am a lill bit slowpoke  If this 7.2mbps really true, is it worth to cancel P1 W1MAX subscription ( Iam a really happy user) to apply DiGi Broadband? |

according to the person i spoke to there, right now they arent targetting users who want to use it for mobility, just home users. he seems to imply that currently we wont be able to use it anywhere we like within the coverage area. they will ask for your location beforehand.
the digi usb modem price is so-so only even during the promotion period (rm200/rm300 + contract). these days ppl want the thumbdrive-type usb modem, but theirs still the cable type. myself using thumbdrive usb modem i bought for rm350 six months ago. |

Glad digi's being honest and realistic to highlight AVERAGE speed. Not shouting about 7.2mbps or something like that.
Maybe Streamyx should follow suit and highlight their average speed instead of 1mbps blah blah blah. |

a bit disappoint on digi package.
The compare chart is not 100% houour. For celcom even quote is 5GB but it fix with RM68 per month. no as digi, got hidden extra charge capped at RM 138. If like this, Celcom is still worth it ,because I can use extra 2GB with RM68. But digi will start charge you after 3GB , the 2GB extra will charge you max at RM138. totally pricey. |

QUOTE(suyee @ Mar 19 2009, 06:48 PM) a bit disappoint on digi package. Bro, you blur blur edi loh about the extra charges if you exceed the quota.....The compare chart is not 100% houour. For celcom even quote is 5GB but it fix with RM68 per month. no as digi, got hidden extra charge capped at RM 138. If like this, Celcom is still worth it ,because I can use extra 2GB with RM68. But digi will start charge you after 3GB , the 2GB extra will charge you max at RM138. totally pricey. RM58=3GB additional 10MB=RM0.15 so i have calculated if you continue downloading up to 8GB, you will be charged RM132..... let's say during that month you have downloaded 18GB worth of data, actual charges will be First 3GB=RM58 Next 15GB=RM235 Total RM293 but you will pay at the cap price of RM138 only.

The package comparison table is very misleading.It shows that the DiGi staff involve in the survey not doing his/her job properly.
1) Streamyx Combo 384 does not cost RM119. 2) Maxis 3G Internet RM99 Add On does not have 12months contract 3) Celcom Access only RM68 also has no contract 4) DiGi's 12 months modem installment signup is also considered a contract. If you don't want to complete the remaining 12months, you need to pay the remaining fees or just the modem? |

What concluding? I'm just pleased with their business strategy over others, and I'll be even happier if they manage to remain stable.
IMO It looks like their business strategy is to provide stable connection to all user. That's why there's all these throttling, and the slow rollout. IMO again Digi has to stay smart and please their customers, due to the loopsided playing field. Of course I might be wrong, but then there's no binding contract. |
