Ako naka-globe broadband. Okay naman speed niya kesa dun sa isa (smart). No kidding, pero dito madalas umaabot ng 500kbps speed ko kung di gaya nung dati na nasa 256kbps max lang naglalaro.

Depende lang talaga kung madaming nagsi-seeds. Yung DL ko ng naruto anime episode (lalo na kung latest), 30-45 mins lang madalas, tapos na.

mahal talaga internet dito sa pinas compared sa ibang bansa dahil kumbaga ay sa ibang bansa din tayo kumukuha ng internets kasi nandun sa ibang bansa yung infrastructure or yung main ba :)

Kung bundled plans ka (w/ phone) ganiyan lang talaga speed mo just like mine. Pero okay na rin, di hamak naman na mas mabilis itong globe kesa smartbro. :?

To tell you frankly, nung naka-smartbro ako dati, hindi ako nakakapanood sa Youtube while downloading torrents. Well now, no problem na.

Thanks to globe. :-)

mahal lang talaga maningil ang PLDT. isipin nyo Hong Kong o Singapore wala rin naman silang sarili nilang network kung baga. singapore siguro meron konti kasi maraming IT companies dun, but nasa US ang mga servers ng kinaramihan ng malalaking websites. pero ubod ng mura ang internet sa kanila

itong NBN na ito napakaganda sana ito para sa Pilipinas eh. sayang lang at pinerahan na naman

i agree. bukod mahal maningil pldt, grabe yung service nila palpak talaga. we're using skyinternet from skycable. ok naman sya 1Mbps tumataas pa depende sa traffic. pero pag may problem, pagtinawag mo, tutulungan ka tlaga ng rep sa phone pag troubleshoot then pag wala talaga, may darating na technician kinabukasan agad. :D

Pero kaya naman i-provide ng PLDT yang Gov't Broadband na yan. Kung tutuusin kaya mismo ng gov't natin na mag-setup nyan. Aksaya lang sa pera yan.

Mas maigi nga kung ganyan, assuming na galing China ang connection. kasi di ba globe has Taiwan for its connection, my former company has Hong Kong, but I don't know PLDT. Ang point ko dito eh yung redundant connection para just in case bumagsak ang isa meron pang-backup.

pero sabi nga ng UP study hindi raw natin kailangan.

But in my opinion we really need a backbone for the inter-gov't connection (intranet access) tapos secondary yung internet (extranet access). Imagine Malacanang accessing BIR Reports online within that connection without passing thru outside internet channels. Technically, connections would be leased lines for their WANs
