what isp do you use? dial up, cable or pre-paid. maganda ba services and how much is your plan and minutes free? i currently use infocom and am trying to look for better ones. my plan is pro30(meaning 30 mins free) and P990 monthly. P1 per minute excess sa free minute
ako nasa states ako pero comment ko na rin ang gamit ko , cable ( COX )
tapos kasama na ang TFC nito ( The FIlipino Channel ) . Ang bilis , download ka ng
music sa cd siguro mga max 10 mins lang . $ 90 nga lang pero libre na 3 premium na
channels sa cable .
i called pldt to inquire the dsl. P3000 unlimited use for a month for residencial line. pag business fone gamit mo, mahal P5000 unlimited / month. but 2 multiusers puwede meaning kahit sabay 2 computers gamit, puwede. plus may P2500 one time installation fee pa. but mabilis ang speed niya 256kbps compared sa 44kbps ng dial up infocom ko. or you can inquire about their Now cable but hindi lahat ng area meron daw. same with the Skycable isp, di lahat area meron. but usually mga friends ko naka Destiny cable, yun nga lang ngayon lang NBA channel and Star channels. kasi i think P2500/month yata with TV cable na dun. sa DSL pala, kahit fone line mo gamit ng ISP, you can still use the landphone.
I ahve tried both the DSL of pldt & eastern... PLDT DSL is slow!!! Only slightly faster than a 56k modem!!! Eastern Telecoms DSL is really fast... I can download a 10meg file in less than 2 mins.
For business accounts ito... pricing is about the same... problem is service area.
I'm using cable broadband at home and it's quite reliable and cheap here in HK, around P1,600.00. No limit (24 hours) and no downtime! As the isp said, you're always connected. As soon as I turn on my PC connected na kaagad. The speed is 8Mbps sharing.
Sa office naman naka T1 kami, so online din parati. Anytime you can access the internet to visit tsikot he he :lol: :lol: :lol:
Eastern telecoms = DSL with 256kbs & 8kbs min rate = P5000/month (I get 30kbs up to 256kbs depending on website connected to.)
PLDT = DSL with 256kbs & ??kb min rate = P8000/month (I get 15kbs or less pa!)
problem is, aside from Destiny and PLDT and NOW, sobrang limited yung coverage areas ng ibang broadband providers, plus, usually for corporate clients ang package kaya sobrang mahal for residential use.
and the other problem is sometimes they advertise with too much hype and they can't deliver the speeds they promised in their advertisements. At least I am very satisfied with Eastern DSL. I can even watch streaming videos at 256kbs on the web! Sarap!and the other problem is sometimes they advertise with too much hype and they can't deliver the speeds they promised in their advertisements. At least I am very satisfied with Eastern DSL.
