    Using for about a week now, okay naman for surfing. I google'd and ung *******s capped nga.

    Downloaded a 700MB file and it took more than 24hours to finish

    not that dependable unlike DSL. but can still manage to check emails, browse some sites, and chat.. IMO, not worth it, unless you're a person who's always on the go

    I tried Sun Wireless Broadband before. So-so lang sa surfing experience. Some areas are good (like The Fort) while some areas it would disconnect every minute to 5 minutes which made it close to useless.

    Plus the load expires a few days after loading it so it's kinda pointless if you are going to use it "for emergencies" unless you have a prepaid card handy.

    In the end, if you have a post-paid mobile phone account like Smart or Globe, it would be better to access the web using your mobile phone as a wireless 3G modem.

    awts depende ata sa area, ako trip na trip ko itong sun kasi mas mabilis pa siya sa dsl ko sa bahay hehe. pati sa alabang yung globe ng kasama ko (tatoo) naddc siya sabay akin hindi. sa tingin ko binibigyang priority siguro ng sun yung postpaid sa broadband kasi sa ngayon sobrang okei na connection ko.

    malas parin hehe ako madalas dito sa dapitan okei naman mabilis pero me time okei lang pero hindi na sobrang bilis

    lumalaro download ko from 2mbps tapos bumabagsak sa 200kbps pag malas
    ang masasabi ko lang hindi siya gaano kastable sa speed wala siyang definite

    sa dsl ko naman sa bahay na pldt stable siya sa 300kbps

    btw: mas reliable ang speed ng sun pag nasa labas ng building or house, naoobserve ko na bumibilis pag nasa kotse ako.

    pati dapat naka wcdma only minsan kasi nagshishift siya sa gprs/edge tsktsk

    Im also planning to get this one in addition to my postpaid (phone) subscription. Nag-aalangan lang ako dito sa * ng flyer/ads nila:

    [SIZE=3]*Subject to Sun's fair usage policy to ensure quality of service.[/SIZE]

    At depende rin sa lugar.

    Playing safe lang siguro ang SunCel just in case meron mag-complain.

    That's why I waited and searched here for forum discussions regarding this one. Good think I dont have extra cash/budget for this and deferred my plan to buy it.

    Sun postpaid ko walang disconnection talo pa yung SmartBro canopy na madalas disconnected at limited connection. Next billing period papuputol ko na SmartBro ko.

    Bulacan area ako, swerte malakas pa ang signal ng Sun broadband sa amin
    eh halos lahat ng kapitbahay ko naka SmartBro kaya superbagal ang SmartBro sa lugar namin. Nakatipid na ako from P999 to P799 wala pang disconnection
