parang panget ang globe sa area ko. so far ilang beses na nagdodown at wala pang isang buwan yung service sakin. pero madali tumawag sa kanila tapos medyo prompt naman yung techs sa pag ayos ng problema. naka pldt yung sa house ng dad ko, pero di naman sila madalas down.

ganun talaga pag globe.. first few months, palaging nagccrash.. pero pag tumagal, magiging ok, tapos apg umulan, sure wala kang internet.. and matagal faulty yung connection lagi.. :-( hinihintay na lang namin matapos yung contract namin para lumipat na sa iba..

I recently started to use my mobile phone as a broadband modem. I have a Nokia 6120 and i connect it though USB. Through globe I get a 450 kbps connection and its quite fast, feels more than 450kbps. I can ;torrent while video straming.

i agree, kakarestore lang ng internet ko sa bahay after being down for 1 whole month.

imagine that?

i also work in the call center industry and i know the how to's of getting a good customer service and being polite to the technicians, but this one pushed me to the edge. di ko na napigilan sarili ko twing tatawag ako sa kanila at same script at reason ang sasabihin sakin. may pupuntang technician, tititigan ang modem na parang first time lang sila nakakita nun..then leaves without a word. Twice nangyari yung di man lang sila nagpapaalam na aalis na pala when all you thought is may ginagawa sila sa poste or something outside your house..     

tinatapos ko nalang contract ko then i'll be switching to another one. it affects my work so much..sobrang nasstress ako nung time na everyday ako tumatawag para lang magalit.

Feedback naman jan regarding ISPs in Pampanga. I'm choosing between Globe Broadband and PLDTmyDSL. Mas mura yung Globe, you get an extra 1Mbps for the same price. So kung package ang titingnan, mas panalo Globe. But regarding reliability and technical support, alin ba mas OK?

i am now on PLDT's MYDSL plan 990. way much better than smart Bro-ken. may free landline pa for the same price. napakadali pa i-configure sa router, unlike smart bro's na and daming registration.

Pede mo rin naman lagyan ng password yung connection mo eh.

That's right, just activate the security settings in your wifi router to secure your connection so the neighbors cant get a free ride.



na dedetect ba nila if may nakasawsaw sa wifi nila na kapit bahay?... hehhehe tanung ko lng..

Globe DSL!

Medyo madalas ma-disconnect, pero lately swabe ang connection.  Smooth surfing and downloading.  Ambilis.   :wink:

Dapat pldt kami eh, pero unavailable service sa area namin because of their fiber optic cables (sorry di ako technical with these things).

So our options were smart bro, or globe.  Parehong around 1k a month, pero speed was 384kbps VS 1.5Mbps... so no-brainer decision for us.

Globe can suck it.  The interruptions proved too much for us.  Same observations with michiko here.  At the time when we had typhoon Ondoy, globe got disconnected, then sabi 2nd week of December pa magkakaroon uli ng service???  E before that, we already had a slew of problems with disconnections.  Tapos pupunta yung mga "technician"  :roll: , tapos disconnected uli after a few days.  What's worse is you have to call customer service again, explain the same problem again, go to routine checks again, wait again for a few days, then they send you a new guy who isn't familiar with the problem you had before.  WTF???  Ondoy was actually the last straw.  It also doesn't help that we see all this promotion and hype they're building around the new Globe Tattoo service.

Buti si michiko tinapos yung contract.  We told them to shove it.  The guys at Sky Broadband are more professional.  Another wait and see, but so far so good.

hi po. cable internet is still the best dito sa 'pinas. konti pa lang ang internet users dito so alaws pa masyado congestion. pag DSL usually ang maganda mabilis ikabit, pero luma na yung mga phone cables/physical connections kaya nagkakaron ng latency hence the intermittent connection issues. Wifi is good if your always on the go, pero i dont recommend it kasi hindi guaranteed ang connection nun first and foremost dahil ang gamit nya eh cellphone signals to transmit the internet signal, so gudlak na lang pag nag down yung celsite na malapit sa wifi user. and regarding the speed and reliability ng wifi,depende talaga kung maganda reception ng celphone signal sa place mo. :-D

F*&()$NG    GO*&%mnit

it does have a cap of 6g per month naka wi tribe ako,,

pag lumampas ka sa 6gig na limit babagal ang connection mo hanggang sa magging parang isp

so lets say jan1 nag download ka ng worth 6gig na music, movies, streaming games, and naubos mo yung 6gig by jan 3,, so maghihntay ka at magttyaga ng 29 days bago ma refresh yung 6 gig mo GODD#@$ diba

998 per month pa sya

yes indeed napaka stable nya sa 1mbps pero panu pag naubos mo yung 6g???

may upgrade plan pa sila na 12g per month = 2000php huwat!!!

ang masasabi ko lang kung tamang fb, youtube, chat, email, pwede na sya
