Think about your spending habits for a moment.<\/p>\n
In particular, how much you spend on internet connections for your entire household. This probably isn\u2019t much for single people out there but anyone living with a family has probably had a small panic attack.<\/p>\n
It doesn\u2019t sound like much, but the bills can add up over time; especially if you\u2019re paying for several mobile numbers at the same time.<\/p>\n

This is also considering that the example is using the lowest cost unlimited data plan mobile plan. Sure you could reduce the cost by getting supplementary\u00a0lines, but that introduces data caps that must be shared with the rest of your family.<\/p>\n All this means is that you and your family may end up struggling with your data usage towards the end of each billing cycle.<\/p>\n Now, add the additional costs to go roaming as a family.<\/p>\n Data usage worries extend to more than just home domestic use. Families often want to remain connected while on holiday, and roaming charges tend to get expensive. On average, you can expect to pay around RM36 per day to stay connected. That\u2019s if you decide only one of you needs to be online.<\/p>\n Most won\u2019t even think of roaming while overseas, instead choosing to use any available WiFi connections.<\/p>\n This solution works for the most part, but anyone familiar with proper cybersecurity practices will know just how dangerous this practice can get. If anything, hopping on unfamiliar WiFi networks makes you an easy target for hackers (this advice applies even in your home country).<\/p>\n <\/span>MaxisOne Prime simplifies your household budget<\/span><\/h2>\nIf that isn\u2019t enough, Maxis will throw in a little extra coverage for your home broadband.<\/p>\n Malaysians are well aware of the instability of our local cable network. Whether it\u2019s at the last mile or along the backbone, there have been numerous reports of cables being accidentally cut by negligent construction workers.<\/p>\n But how do you prevent a problem that cannot be predicted?<\/p>\n Maxis\u2019 promise of zero down time comes from the additional mobile 4G back system. In this case, the WiFi router will automatically switch to a wireless connection in the case that the fibre broadband fails.<\/p>\n
This is done through an additional SIM card installed in the router itself. This gives you a backup system that seamlessly kicks in if your regular internet goes down.<\/p>\n In fact, Maxis is so confident in this system that the backup SIM will be provided with no data limit either. Meaning that your home fibre could be down for weeks and you might not have noticed.<\/p>\n Admittedly, 4G LTE speeds cannot match a working fibre connection. The latest Opensignal report notes that Maxis 4G averages around 17Mbps, which is still capable of catering to a whole family streaming shows on Netflix (which needs about 2Mbps per person for standard definition).<\/p>\n <\/span>Additional benefits for Maxis Zerolution subscribers<\/span><\/h2>\n |
