need some trick to do it.  icon_idea.gif

ok. The first thing to do is go to Device Manager, Under the Modem Tab, choose the Modem you use to dial Digi.

Open it Properties, , choose the Advanced tab.

At the Extra Initialization commands then type in :  +cgdcont=1,"ip","diginet"

Then "ok" to save it.

All done, connect your nokia phone with USB, then go to setting under network ,choose UMTS/WCDMA.

Selection mode "Manual".

After that, the phone start scan and you will get

3G Digi
3G Celcom
3G Maxis
3G Umobile.

At this moment, your left upper will show 3G without bar, so stop at this screen and now start the ”dial-up networking“。

Dial number is *99#, blank on user and password.
Click Dial, it will first fail but while dialing, you the time to click on the phone.
At first ,second time it will Access Error, but after few tried it said home network select.
Possible a while, your dial up should be successfully dial in.

I am using vista, I usually wait for the Network icon on the right corner appear the small glode on it then start to dial.

I try it 100% successfully all the time. tongue.gif icon_idea.gif

Between that, my Sim Card for Data is the White Colour 128K not the Yellow 64K.

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.
As more and more subscribers subscribe to them, They'll have to rely more on Time's infrastructure.

*
What infrastructure that they have to rely on Time? Time's fibre optics infrasturucture for their 3G services?
Time dotcom is just a empty shell company sitting on the license for few years, then re-sell the spectrum to DiGi for RM650mil whereby Maxis is getting it at 1st shot @ RM50mil.
DiGi is building on the network from scratch without the help from Time dotcom or the government at all.

Now you know how our government wants to have a piece of something that is making money.
And they're encouraging more foreign investment in this corrupted land. doh.gif doh.gif

DiGi is no more the company which is vibrant and aggressive like it used to be 2 years ago. Nowadays they recruit lots of locals and those people of special privileges because of the pressure. Their creativity is starting to lack already.

One good example is their corporate image is no longer pure yellow but a mixture of green and yellow now. If you received their latest postpaid bills you'll see the envelope cover. The use of Yellowman has toned down.
*
nop... their corporate color is still yellow and they're adopting a 'green concept' and its a company-wide campaign.
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.....

Not only divesting their shares, DiGi is also forced to hire many unwanted people as well as local unis to satisfy a certain quota. It'll eventually become another green Maxis.

Ok sorry to use the word unwanted too harsh, better word it as less capable.

You asked why private companies are forced to hire these people. Don't you know that people need to make a living?

lol!
bro, i hope you get what you yourself if writing about.
What quota they need to satisfy?
Number of locals in a foreign company? laugh.gif
You don't have any facts to backup your claims.

What do you mean by foreign company?
DiGi is listed under the Malaysian stock exchange.
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.
*
sorry for the confusion then, should say as the majority stakeholder is not a local.
Oh, DiGi is a MNC and not a local one like Celcom and Maxis. So do you get the drift there?
Telenor still owns 49% of DiGi.

well, some of Telenor ops does not use their own name, so don't make it sounds like they're being forced to use another name.
In Thailand, they're known as DTAC, Serbia is ProMonte, Bangladesh is Grameenphone, Denmark is known as Sonofon and few others.
So does all the others ops in another countries being forced to adopt another name?

if you reaches RM138 cap for Discover and Explore package and RM188 for Extreme package, you can still use, but your speed will be throttled down to 128kbps.

by the way, the package offered and their data limit :
Discover : RM58 - 3GB
Explore : RM108 - 10GB
Extreme : RM188 - 20GB

these packages are not meant for heavy torrent downloaders.
If you are one, then you might better off with streamyx, with unlimited data, though it's throttled.

Imagine, if somebody is hogging the bandwith and affect the quality of service offered, would you be happy with that?

The fastest broadband experience still belongs to wired DSL and fiber.
No arguments to that even on this shore.

bro, what i meant was wireless broadband, home users...
dont compare mobile broadband with wired DSL or whatever sh*t that is available in your office.

And FYI, DiGi 3G is not running on Time's fibre.
TdC has unutilized fibre-optics backbone, that i agree.
If you insists on yes, do show us the fact that it is.

Are you working for DiGi?

It sucks to have staffs like you in a good company.

I have mentioned before many times.
The only 3 main nationwide fiber backbone providers with wide coverages are TM, Time(TdC as mentioned by your dearself) and Jaring.
How do you supposed DiGi is going to link up their packet switch network comprising of Node-Bs around the country with an aggregated 14.4mbps each to deliver enough bandwidth for HSPA services?

I've gave my facts.You insist that it's not. Don't you think it's better for you to prove me wrong otherwise?

Do us a favour by performing a few traceroutes to various servers.

-to TM's website
-to Singapore
-to Japan
-to Taiwan
-to US

We would love to see your average ping rates and hops.

The facts are right before your eyes.

Now that you've said it, I could hardly believe DiGi would hire cheap skates like this to promote their broadband services.

You're just a fresh young Yellowman fan aren't you?

lol! you really think this whole thread is being owned by DiGi staffs? laugh.gif
If i were you, I'll stop all the assumptions.
We never mind your comments here, but just don't assume... at least do bother to put in some prove/fact to back your claims.

That's why all the peoples said that TdC have lotsa 'un-utilized' fibre-optics.
If DiGi is using it, then they wouldn't call that 'un-utilized'.

QUOTE(ronaldjoe @ Mar 24 2009, 05:37 PM)
Stay in BU and subscribed to Digi BB.
Can confirm that certain area not covered under coverage map in BU and Kota Damansara have access to Digi 3G BB.
Have blue light blinking... smile.gif

yea... but definitely DiGi does not guarantee you the optimum speed you could achieve if you're out of the 'blue' area.

Un-utilized also means leasing.

How do you think DiGi connects all their base stations then? They don't own any fiber network of their own.

They do maintain their own DiGi IX gateway which subscribes to PCCW.

you could use the handphone as well, but minus the voice and SMS service.
But the speed will be slower compared to USB modems, eventhough its a HSDPA handset.

you slot the SIM into your phone, you can browse, surfs with your phone and even convert your phone as a modem.
voice and SMS is not provisioned in the HLR for data only SIM.

Sugen,

Do a reverse traceroute or traceroute with other isps to one of the nodes. Then a whois search on all the hops.

If it's through Time, you'll see the information containing Time contact/address.

But if TdC leases their fiber to DiGi with all the servers/switches owned by them, you won't find any information that links it with Time because all the ip blocks belongs to DiGi including its IX gateway.

Some of the ip blocks have not been registered with APNIC yet therefore you'll see that they're still anon.

wow!
you're not done with the debate yet?
why not you do it yourself and post your facts here for everyone to see?
