one of celcom staff told me that the celcom broadband student plan is out now, and he also now accepting personal booking through him.. the price is rm50/month with speed 384kbps. only available to those below 26 years old, after reach 26 you have to back to normal package at rm68/month.

its rm18 discount (compare to normal plan rm68)

if you want unlimited usage, go for Maxis Mobile Internet (MMI) service.. rm99/month (if im not mistaken) and its truly unlimited (dont get confuse with their Maxis Wireless Broadband, MMI is different plan)

this morning, so far so good... wait, i thought pc fair in kl convention centre is just about to start this friday (tomorrow)?

mine had no problem signing in yahoo mesengger or google talk.. only the ym status sometime not update.. i put 'im available' aslo not updated, i put 'not available' also not update.. put customize status also not update..

not sure if its my ym problem or celcom internet problem..

it happen to peninsular users before, but now not anymore.. they already solve the problem since last month here in peninsular.. maybe sarawak a little bit late..

hey, just notice that the LYN disatisfaction level for celcom broadband reduce to 30% lol..

haha, then u re-edit or remove my quotes in your reply lol..

by the way, back to my question.. why the software on my phone showing my usage already 4 or 5GB, while at celcom they said im using less than 3GB only?

no, i mean when i check my previous month usage.. for example in april i download 3 movie with size approximately 1GB each. so, in logic my volume usage must exceed 3GB, because i use it for internet surfing every day too (with average 150mb daily usage for internet surfing - according to my phone software)..

maybe their system capture using different methodology.

17.84mbps? are you joking.. hsdpa cannot support that speed, even hspa also cannot offer that speed, only hspa+ can offer speed like that.. but no operator using hspa+ yet in malaysia

here in KLCC, since last two or three weeks also experience the same thing, ecspecially after 10am and above (but now at 9am still smooth).

i think the network start to congested again .. my god, it just few month after celcom added additional 4 new pipeline with 10gig per sec speed each one to upgrade their backbone capacity (i read somewhere).

i only face that problem at my office klcc (everyday after 10am) since last two weeks..

but today is holiday, and i surf internet here at my home since last night.. 100% working smoothly.. so like i said ealier, the problem must be becoz of congested network, at high density area..

celcom must be oversell ed their broadband again this time huhu.. another upgrade need to be done again sigh

i use celcom bb at 33rd floor.. no problem at all

so u mean we need to spam much more faster in order to get new v7 thread lol..

by the way, anyone have information about new plan rm38/month for 128kbps?

nope, everything working fine.. just like on the ground too.

yes, at my office.. full coverage signal (with hsdpa) here. not sure about indoor anthena, but as far as i know there is no celcom transmitter in my office. not sure if they installed it at other floor.

oh, really? because i saw some weird thing on the ceiling with 'maxis' label on it.. i thought that is indoor transmitter for maxis.. not sure if celcom also share the same transmitter

hey, who read Mobile World Magazine (latest issue).. they do a speed test and comparison for all isp includes Celcom, Maxis, Digi, Umobile, and P1 wimax..

the test was conducted at 6 location within klang valley area. they also give the plan/package details for each provider. suprisingly, maxis and celcom still ahead in term of top speed (up to 2.6mbps or to 2.9mbps at certain places), and they also mentioned that they're quite impressed with consistent celcom upload speed (~120kbps) at all places. digi on the other hand, giving top download speed and upload speed at some location, but due to bad coverage they only can get EDGE speed at some area.

the test includes download speed, upload speed, and youtube streaming speed. if i have time, i can scan the result table and upload it here.

i think, anyone who are still looking for a wireless broadband access can buy this magazine for reference purpose..

how lucky are you, rm50 for hsdpa.. got 2mbps++.

for almost two years i only enjoy max 384kbps with rm68 monthly

Added on July 16, 2009, 9:45 ami always keep complaining about 5gig usage quota before, but when i check my usage at celcom suprisingly i never even reach 3gig. i am pretty sure i use more than that (i check on my phone data monitor log record), weird. because i remember that sometime i download a up to three movie in a month (that already almost 3gig) how come they said i use less that 3gig. but, nevermind.. its a good thing lol.

by the way, for those who feel 5gig is not enough, they can choose other provider.

the only way is to terminate your current account.. and re-register for student plan.

i hope at least 20% to 30% of current celcom broadband user (ecsp heavy user) switch to digi or other operator, so we all can enjoy better internet speed. celcom currently have to 'feed' almost 300k broadband users nationwide (it almost 60% of the total wireless broadband user in malaysia)

no, they just simply use individual account to do the test.. you should buy the magazine and see the result.. base on the result: yes, at few of the test area they only got 800kbps only

Added on July 16, 2009, 9:55 am400kbps++ for d68? wow..
