well, if you are going to use for long hour, might as well get a hsdpa usb modem. price ranger : rm200-rm300 in the garage sales.

I am assuming you will surf the net using pc/lappy/netbook instead of hp.

At that price, having a usb modem puts you on added advantages.

1. price - cheaper, whereas, a 3g hp would cost you higher than rm350. I would get a hsdpa phone ( for long term performance-price ration) rather than a 3g phone, but of course a hsdpa phone cost a lot more than a 3g phone.

2. Heat issue. Long hours would make ur hp really hot and drain your battery. You need to constantly plug in while surfing and at least, have a fan to cool down your hp at the same time. Constant charging = more electricity bills plus reducing ur hp life battery cycle.

Anyway, if you ll be surfing the net using hp primarily, it is another story then.

Hm.. this speed ok ? Today macam saja

yup.. ok la tu..

3g = 384kbps = 0.38mbps=0.38Mb/s

thus your 0.37Mb/s is quite good.

Even your upload is good at 100kbps

which modem is prefer?is it good for the modem with budget above?

yup, you can get any huawei hsdpa modem at that price.

It is considered good.

You can check at garage sales under networking. At least, you can see different types of modem.
The price range of rm200-rm350 depends on the modem conditions like New, Used, Display Unit, bulk orders n such.

Mostly, people use huawei modem. You can choose either e220, or the k series (which comes with a micro SD slot too.)

At lowyat, they usually cost around rm300 and onwards.

Just got my sim pack from Blue Cube One Utama yesterday. When i ask for the sim pack, the fellow blurred and stunt for few seconds. Then like suddenly remember he do have such thing to sell. LoL

gonna try it out when i free.

same thing did happen to me, LOL

Hope CBP will do you good.

huawei E better than K
big size = big antenna, small size = small antenna
if u want to (ab)use non stop torrent get sierra.

Today I think I'm at the highest limit alr

Haha

Well,I also cannot login,I only using e-buddy.com to login to all messenger

the strange thing is i can connect to ym on certain ip but on the cost of slow surfing / cannot surf at all.
it's quite frustrating since i cant use the internet normally (good surfing speed / instant messenger )
i dont really care about downloading/torrenting stuff from the net..

Haha ... well,for me all browser is not a problem

the download speed is 80KB/s..much better than streamyx 512mbps. but i got problems while browsing,it's like using 56k dial up.

Try this.

If you are using handphone to connect, disable high speed data packaging (3.5G). You will connect at slower speed 3G instead of 3.5G , but you can connect to MSN.

It worked for me. Tell me if it works for you.

if now i use daily plan for celcom bb prepaid..can i switch to weekly plan using same SIM card?

yes, you can...

Hello everyone, question bout this Celcom prepaid bb. nv use one b4.

if I just wan to use this as backup with a HSDPA modem? how does one activate the sim card without a HSDPA phone?

using any hanphone, even non gprs/3g/hsdpa also can,

just sms type Broadband and send to 28882

hi toilet bowl and all...i believe my connection is capped. Funny thing is when i try to login setting at 3g, the server just failed to respond and time out. I have to reset to reduce to GPRS speed. And at GPRS surfing, the speed is worst then 56k dial up. What's happening? Anyone have this experience?
