You can use softwares like DUMeter to monitor your usage. Some modems do have an Internet connection record that keeps track on the total amount of data downloaded/uploaded as well.

Last I heard Maxis really took off its contract package.

@realcheraz

plz, i'm not exaggerating. maxis recently took off their contract requirement. dont believe? check it at maxis site urself. it seems to me u always like to argue my point, whether or not i'm rite or wrong. sounded like u r biased towards celcom. geez...

few Qs here..
1. why dont u mention about their monthly charges?or other -ve factor of it?u r biased to digi?geezz...
2. 1st Bold phrase up there...it's ur assumption or what?

in case u dont know..
1. digi charge u rm128/month for the 1st 6months & rm158/months for the next 6months (CONTRACTUAL FOR 1 YEAR - A MUST)
2. Yes,currently it's allowing u accessing up to 7.2Mbps IF u register during their so call PROMO (but extended due to not much demand) period
3. That 7.2Mbps is only courtesy..digi can downgrade ur speed @ anytime. maximum 1 year.wonder why?afraid of congestion la..
4. human always craving for speed,once got it,used till death & hit limit,then CAPPED TO 64kbps. now only pay rm68 with 64kbps,later on end up pay higher for that same crazy speed
5. COVERAGE...COVERAGE..COVERAGE...but i'm quite impressed wit current digi expansion even i'm not sure wit their real coverage.need to wait till official launch

so if u want to state sumthing,stay on the fact!

i've tested digi 3g.friend subscribe for it during soft launch with free compaq lappy, it's exactly same lappy offered by celcom b4. but this package cant enjoy 50gb cap limit,only 10gb cos already got lappy for free.others are the same. so far,the speed is FAST!!

as expected actually..not much user or i can say no one use it.so if u want use it & enjoy it to the max,u better subscribe now.or maybe next year also ok if u love to rant about digi on the other forum

p/s : maybe i've mentioned b4 that i'm EX-celcom Technical Helpdesk,left the company 2 years back coz i'm pissed off by exaggerating cust

I still cannot connect to Celcom broadband and still got the same message. Saw from the modem dialer, it suddenly shows no network, then next second has network but cannot connect.

I'm sleepy better sleep now, morning still have quiz. Hopefully when I wake up later it can be connected and can start downloading my series.

this one?
http://www.maxis.com.my/personal/broadband/termncon.asp
maybe i cant find it,so help me...

Not need so difficult, check it out from the Maxis thread. If my memory serves me well, Maxis really took off the contracts.

First and formal, unlike u, i dun have strings attached... k lets make a quick debate although i dun see any point in that. but it seems that u cant stop unless be stopped.
1. DiGi charges more than Celcom - true, no doubt. But let me ask u (not just realcheraz), which one is beta? RM98 for 5GB or RM 128/158 for 50GB? Plz dun forget that DiGi include a free modem, calculate the cost of modem of about 200-300... we can say it is about RM120-ish a month. So... RM98 for 5GB or RM120 for 50GB? Yes, u can argue that u have the modem or u dun wanna the modem but at this point, that is just an unfortunate complication. lets not go there, shall we?
2. At this point, no one knows wad DiGi wanna do. 7.2 or 3.6? If 7.2 is temporary, then for how long? Regrettably, I have no ans to that
3. Same as above
4. I dun really get ur meaning rite here but human is greedy. Dun say u r not. Coz that makes u NOT human
5. Coverage? True, celcom is the widest at the moment. Probably, will be for a long time

As to the assumption u said I somehow create for false alarm, pls do ur own homework. or else, u may appear silly. no offence. Maxis indeed removed their contract requirement.

Do I not mention the weaknesses of other ISP? Like limited coverage of DiGi and its contract... I did mention it in my previous post, maybe it is too old, u miss it. N i also mention Maxis has RM200 handling fee and stuffs. Geez... Pls learn to read carefully. And importantly, stick to details n dun get driven by ur pure emotion, hormonal instability or simply, rage.

If u have a prob wif ONE exaggerating customer of Celcom, then u should blame him/her. Not everyone who complain about Celcom... Does this forum only allows praises and compliments?

N my advice to u is u should change ur attitude. Perhaps attend anger management classes or something. If i'm not mistaken, i remember u saying u living alone and something along that line... Maybe it affects u more than u realise... Plus ur attitude of "dun care, some stupid customers making big fuss over something small" is the main reason u r now ex-Celcom technical helpdesk. Coz u dun help solving a problem by doing so. Perhaps, u r not fitted to be one. U should help the cust by giving some constructive ideas or provide assurance. U r (or were) in service industry that should provide the best service possible even if the cust get over ur head for many times. Not saying is easy but just dun get ur emotions get the best out of u.

Lastly, pls take no offence. I can understand u r biased toward Celcom but this is not meant to offend u in any way. Just merely trying to clear my name from being called a liar who put up a false alarm.

If u wanna argue further for the sake for argument, i have to say no to that. As i mentioned, i'm merely trying to clear my name.

I agree, realcheraz does sound arrogant at times. His love to Celcom broadband can be seen quite clearly. Kinda evident and obvious isn't it?

Anyway, don't take this too personal. If you can critics on others, I'm sure this little criticism won't harm you much.

Yes, Celcom is good for some people, at least it is still acceptable by me. However, it still fails me some time. Whatever it is, let's move on.

I think i will rite to press regarding this stupid limitation 5gb

Dun worry, fruitie. I dun take matters like these too seriously.

1. yes,agreed wit u. so change ship now..i'm encouraging u here
2. dont talk about thing u din know..it's stated there 7.2 only for maximum 12months.allow me...
"FREE Trial of 7.2Mbps speed is at DiGi's discretion and valid for contract period of 12 months."
or maybe i misunderstood?try avoid using "IF"...if this..if that..
3. ??? same as above??
4. yup, u got it. my celcom last in 2days b4 getting re-cap,so 50gb only for 20days,the other 10days ranting here?
5. u r right. but what about digi "WIDEST" billboard/tv promo?seems like 'false alarm'?

i prefer not to trust people's hear say..i've found no prove on their web..sorry mar_ware & also fruitie

fyi, i live wit 1 friend now..living in KL,paying housing rent alone?cudn't afford it yet..& let's not make a judgement against sum1 u dun know. u only knew my bad working experience...not the brightside..

lastly, i love ur statement up there..i bold it

sorry, i never said u r a liar..
& sorry if i hurts some1 feeling

Finally i'm back to my Uni and using my uni's internet with the speed like this:

Uncapped speed.

Whoa!! Lucky you
In which uni are you? If you don't mind telling

From your latency, you are just getting UMTS and for me I don't really like using UMTS as the latency tends to be quite high.

recently my speed quite ok although havent uncapped, i still can download movie like gundam by using thunder, range of speed are between 0 - 35 KB/s.
most of the time will get around 7-14 KB/s, good news.. !!
i hav a good mood today. haha.. !!!!

yongkailoon , you mean GPRS better?

No, say I'm on the D68 plan, I still can be on HSDPA if the tower isn't fully utilized. If I'm on HSDPA, the latency is much better so browsing websites such as this forum will be more responsive.

I understand.
So no wonder why I get this speed everytime , it's because of the latency.
Mine is always like 400.
