| Choosing the Best Wireless Broadband Provider for iPad in Malaysia Posted: 28 Feb 2011 04:05 AM PST In this article, you will learn how to choose a wireless broadband service provider for your iPad 3G and the reasons of my pick — Maxis broadband. Why subscribe wireless broadband plan for iPad?I own both Apple iPhone and iPad 3G+WiFi. I have iPhone data plan but it is not shareable to iPad. I need a broadband plan for my Apple iPad. My iPhone and iPad usage:
How to choose a wireless broadband service provider for iPad?My ideal wireless broadband service for iPad should be:
RELATED: Maxis WiFi Modem (Huawei E5832 3G Wireless Modem) Review. Best wireless broadband provider in Malaysia?There are several wireless broadband service providers in Malaysia: Maxis, DiGi, Celcom, P1, and Yes4G. The latter two are so called “4G” wireless broadband but both do not provide SIM card and has limited coverage. DiGi is cheap but with limited 3G coverage. Celcom is expensive and slow speed plans. My winner of “wireless broadband service for iPad” is Maxis. Maxis is one of the Malaysia telco with the widest network coverage. Maxis 3G network covered the small town I am living in. As a Maxis postpaid customer, I get the special offer for Maxis broadband. RM48 per month (RM20 cheaper than normal rate) for 3GB data quota. It is a good deal and no other telco could offer the same. The plan also included a free HSDPA USB modem (E1552) that supports both PC and Mac OS X operating systems. Note: I cut the Maxis broadband SIM card to micro-SIM size for Apple iPad 3G. When use in USB modem, I use a micro SIM adapter to fit the micro-SIM card. Maxis also has iPad data plans but I don’t think it is a good deal. The Maxis wireless broadband plans do not set speed limit (up to 7.2 Mbps). The actual speed depends on factors like modem capability, location, distance from the communication tower, and the number of simultaneous users. In my personal experience, the download speed vary from 1.5Mbps to 3.5Mbps. It is faster and more stable than my Streamyx 1Mbps home broadband at anytime. Info: If you have exceeded the allowed monthly quota, Maxis wireless broadband would still active at a much slower speed. The speed I got is around 100kbps (12.5 KB/s). That’s very slow… MyLaunchPad – Maxis broadband self-help online panelAfter subscribed to Maxis broadband, you are recommended to register a free account at MyLaunchPad for self-help services. From the online panel, you could view invoice, make payment, check your data usage, purchase extra quota… My two centsAlthough I stay at home most of the time using unmetered quota home fixed line broadband (Streamyx), Maxis wireless broadband serves as my backup connection when the home broadband connection is down. When I am traveling, I don’t need to find a free WiFi network. The SIM card in my iPad provides Internet access, regardless I am in the bus, taking mass transits, or sitting in a corner in shopping mall. Maxis wireless broadband service gives the best balance for network coverage, connection speed, and cost among other Malaysia wireless broadband providers. I am a happy paid customer. Who is your wireless broadband service provider? Why? This article is part of “Maxis 10 Reviewers Programme”. Here are the related articles:
