Packing Away from Celcom Broadband

I have been using Celcom broadband for more than one year and six months already. Although Celcom broadband sometimes give me some headache, but I still can struggle and survive until now.

Since Celcom enforcing their Fair Usage Policy on Excessive Usage (page 8 of 10) a few months ago (I think early of this year), it becomes a problem to me. Celcom only provides 5GB data usage monthly. If you exceeded the usage limit, your internet speed will be cut down and it will become slower and slower. At the end, you can only open Yahoo! page in your dream and not with Celcom broadband.

I have make many problem reports to Celcom since the first time I use their broadband service. Every time I make a report, they will solve the problem quickly. They took about one to two days to fix the issue. That is the only reason why I stay with Celcom Broadband.

The Problem

The Solution

1. Insert the thumb drive to an empty USB slot. Take note the drive letter. For an example, F:.

2. Press Windows + R, and type “cmd“. Ok.
