SIMBA Telecom discussion thread

[gapboy]

Not sure. You know at JB central the network is always very erratic. But once out of there it is usable. I do not know if it has switched telco or not.

Yep the immigration side a little bottleneck to detect network ..

the JB immigration building or the CIQ, is a blackhole for all mobile signal.
need to walk past the building.
Signals recovered usually on the bridge towards JB Sentral.

I dunno which is the better network, so just use it unless the speed is unbearable.

Back when I was using M1 MNO line, I could get signal at the area between the convenience store and the tourist office.

My Hotlink lines could connect there too, so I doubt they blocked unless only past few months.

UMobile is faster based on me doing speed test with only 4g lte. 156mbps down and 60mbps++ up.

Think even faster than SG local data

They have free WiFi

I've been using these WiFi to login MyNIISe for QR Code scanning when I arrived by bus.

I’d try to remember this next time I’m in JB.

 

[loganrunning]

about same speeds as Simba 4G

so is there any advantage to changing to new SIM?

feel like delaying it as long as I can.

won't suddenly lose signal one day if never change right?

You should say about disadvantage of changing to new SIM instead.

Sooner of later, you will need to change the sim.

Right now the new sim is able to tap on Simba 5G SA network.

Already gotten the new Sim. And an SMS to activate it. But it brings to a link where need to enter NEW ICCID and Document ID which they say information sent to email.

But nothing is sent to email. Not even in Spam.

I've been using these WiFi to login MyNIISe for QR Code scanning when I arrived by bus.

There are 3 WiFi Networks: "Wifi Premium Johor 1, 2 & 3" - all same password but at CIQ Exit from JB, all very weak coverage till non existent - I think similarly for vehicle zones too.

I've been using these WiFi & logging in to MyNIISe is smooth, when arriving by bus.
