Hi po po for context, currently sa apartment ko nakaglobe fibr prepaid po ako. Around 2 yrs na ko gumagamit nito. No lock in naman siguro since prepaid lang sya. Then next week po kasi, magchachange na ako ng apartment place though walking distance lg siya sa current apartment ko, around 100 meter lang ang layo. Pwede po ba to ipatransfer ko yung current modem ko (and how if ever) or ipaclose nalang then mgpainstall ng bago?

Hi planning to get prepaid fiber wifi since student palang and hindi na po afford ang postpaid wifi. S2S and Globe Prepaid pinagpipilian ko now since same silang 700 ang monthly.

Ano po kaya ang mas better connection sakanila sa Lower Antipolo area? Mainly for coding, school puposes and gaming lang naman po. And meron po ba silang data throttling specially sa download?

I want to put a Smart Bro Rocket SIM to my unmodified Smart Home Wi-Fi Boosteven R051 modem, will it get blocked for internet access? I'm not going to use unli data promos. I heard if you use a TNT or a normal Smart Prepaid SIM to these modems, it will often get blocked for internet use even with limited data promos. TIA

San Dionisio kami, kumain lang sa labas--pagbalik namin wala na net. wfh pa naman ako huhu

Hi everyone, I need some advice about my situation with Converge.

Six months ago, my partner and I rented an apartment in the city, around 30 minutes away from our family home. We subscribed to Converge, thinking the 2-year lock-in period would not be a big issue.

Now, we decided it would be a smart move to go back to our family home so we can save up more. It would also be a good thing since I can look out for my mother.

Here’s the tricky part. I want to transfer our Converge internet service back to our family home, but their support team told us that our area is not serviceable yet. This contradicts their online serviceability checker, which says our area is covered. I also asked around our barangay, and some neighbors said they have Converge as their provider.

Do I have a valid argument if I involve the NTC? It feels like they are refusing to transfer my internet service just so I’ll be forced to cancel and pay the early termination fee, which would be a lot.

Has anyone experienced something similar? Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi! I was wondering kung pwedeng bumili na lang ako ng sim for my broadband para mapalitan yung expired na sim niya? Hassle kasi pumunta pa sa store, ang layo. Gagana pa kaya siya?

I had Globe 1000 Mbps until 4 weeks ago for 2499 php and it broke without any way to fix it, so I had to change to PLDT and did choose 500 Mbps for 1800 php as switch offer

I expected PLDT to be slower than Globe, but PLDT has no good 1000mbps offer, so I was thinking, let's try 500mbps which should be ok!

and I must say PLDT 500 Mbit wipes the floor with Globe 1000 Mbit.

everything is much faster with PLDT

I just give you one example

Downloading Usenet with Globe was about 28 MB/s max

Downloading Usenet with PLDT is 60 MB/s.

Holy, PLDT is blazing fast

I am currently using yung personal hotspot ng cellphone ko and na-notice ko na sobrang drastic(?) ng pagbaba ng battery percentage ko (dumb move).

Ginagamit ko yung offer ng smart na unli 5g w/ nsd good for 30 days (less than 800 pesos), it all goods and reliable pero yun nga, grabe yung effect niya sa battery ng phone.

Can you guys recommend a good pocket wifi/modem na reliable in quezon city? particularly around sm north. I work from home but sometimes lumalabas ako to work, so I need something na portable that i can bring anywhere. (maybe also something that offers unlimited data for a low price?)

I looked up sa Globe, and they have this "LOOP" idk what type it is pero para siyang malaking pocket wifi na may built in phone na may handle (?) it looked good pero ang dami niya masyadong unnecessary features and masyadong mahal haha.

Thank youuuu!

I've been experiencing LOS w globe gfiber prepaid and nagpa shced ako kanina ng technician visit, dumating naman pero walang naayos kasi sa linya daw mismo yung problem. ngayon sabi nya marerefund naman daw kaso nag aalala ako pero wait ko muna ng 24hrs at least, anyone has tips?

Totoo kaya yung mga story na nababasa kong may naghuhugot ng linya sa mga box para magkabit ng ibang linya?

3 days na kami walang internet, day 1 pa lang tinawag na namin. Ang sabi, kinabukasan daw maaayos. Until now wala pa. Wala rin kwenta ang customer service nila. Napaka basura ng PLDT.

So I've been skeptical tuloy kung totoo nga yung ganon not only with PLDT but also sa Converge.
