P1 WiMAX 2 weeks trial
the cool black wireless modem box.
I have just received my P1 WiMAX trial today, which came a week after I registered an account for it. Currently I'm having 1.5mbps connection, and the speed seems to be really 1.5mbps, unlike Streamyx which gives you 1mbps but only goes up to about 700+kbps. I guess too many users are using Streamyx already here.
Not only that, I'm having a consistent of 150-180kbps downloading speed. So yeah, I guess not many people are using P1 WiMAX now. Not sure about the connection's stability for playing online games using P1 cos I have not tried out yet. For surfing, it is superb!
P1 will be announcing the prices on the 19th of August. I hope it won't be that expensive compared to Streamyx. If it all seems to be good, I will consider in switching to P1 :)

Does the modem need a power
Does the modem need a power (A/C) adapter? Does it have an antenna?
Yes, it does need a power
Yes, it does need a power adapter. Currently there's no antenna, but my dad asked them bout it and they said it will only be available next time o_O So yeah, not really sure about the antenna.

Hmm.. then it's not exactly a portable solution, unless there is a battery compartment or some kind of battery converter.
Anyway, the whole unit seems a bit too big to carry around.
As for the antenna, you probably don't need one unless you're in a building with thick walls, or you're at the edge of their coverage zones.
Haha yeah. Probably a new
Haha yeah. Probably a new modem may be released by them with batteries running it =p
Nah, actually it's not that big at all, and it's light lol.
Yeap, true. However, the modem's box recommend that you put the modem near to the window to get better network reception.

Hi there!
Thanks for dropping by. I'm living in Subang Jaya (USJ 7) and the connection isn't really stable for me at that time.
Not sure how is the connection like now as I have stopped subscribing WiMAX about 2 months plus already.
If you would like a more detailed review by me, you can check it out at http://www.jonloh.net/archives/id=720 :)
Thank you for replying..
Thank you for replying.. :)
after reading your review, i dont know what to do anymore.. *sigh*
Currently i am using maxis broadband and before, i used to use celcom broadband.. celcom is worse than maxis's broadband, so that was the reason i switched to maxis..
but as time passes by, maxis broadband is unreliable too.. unstable connection etc..
and now thinking to subscribe to wimax..
btw, your site is wonderful! :D
No problem! Am glad you find
No problem! Am glad you find the review useful :)
If that's the case you are in now, I really suggest you should switch to P1 WiMAX. It will be way better than Maxis and Celcom broadband. Still it's sad to say that Streamyx would be still the best choice =x lol.
Ah, thanks for your comment on this site! :D
Replying to your previous comment on another post; I think they still do offer the 2 weeks trial. You can call them up and do an inquiry about it. It's worth to try out if you plan to switch~

Hey there!
They have very good customer support. As for the connection currently, I'm not too sure whether it's stable yet. But from what I heard from my friend who subscribed it recently, he said he keeps on getting a very unstable connection.
I think they will release a
I think they will release a USB version of it just like the other telcos so thet they are more compatitive.
Oh is it? I'm not sure about
Oh is it? I'm not sure about that and I don't think they will do a USB version. The LAN setting up for WiMAX is as simple as the USB ones.
P1 is full of promises
P1 is full of promises unfulfilled:

Trust me: I'm a long suffering customer
