SmartBro Downloading at 600KB/SEC!! How??Why??

[KrisKros]

Here's a pic of me downloading at incredible speeds. Is everyone else experiencing this??? I'm in the Imus, Cavite area. I'm not complaining
Am I the only one? or are others experiencing this rapid speed? The file is almost 19mb, and I downloaded the file in less than 30secs. It's been like this for the past few days, I didnt wanna jinx it or anything, i'm knocking on wood as i type this. The other night it was downloading 1megabyte per second.

[impulzz]

ang swerte mo naman, ako 1 year na smartbro, 3 houses away lang ang base station sa bahay ko. ang never got more that 80KB/sec. nakailan tawag at complain na ako sa smart all they can say is..."sir paki monitor a lang"... pero sure ako sa isang bagay na mabilis ang smart... sa pagsingil ng bill.

kung meron lang ibang ISP dito sa area namin matagal ko na pinaputol ito.

[kiper]

mukhang nag-eenjoy si kriskros..hahaha


yung 80kbps..mabilis na.. sakin bayantel dsl 512kbps (1024 kapag gabi).. pinakamabilis na download ko nasa 70kpbs na.

sir sadyang mabilis lang talaga mga Apple servers

[pup2]

Buti nga kayo 80 at 600. Ako Digitel DSL na shared 40 kb throughput lang eh. At 1,650 per month I'm thinking of shifting to smartbro!

You're right on that one. Apple's always had fast servers. They're not perfect. But, they do know what quality service is.

[Syuryuken]

Pwede yan sa Smartbro yung engineer ng smart dito ginawa niyang 1.5 mbps sa kanya pero dapat 384kbps lang. pag may kakilala kayong engineer ng smart kausapin niyo pwede niya kayong bigyan ng 1+mbps.

[squatt3r]

kaya pala nawawalan ng bandwidth ung ibang subscribers

[bougartt]

Zipidee sucks!!!!! hahaha the fastst zipidee ever gone in my pc is 20kbps only.. Is there something wrong??

Im also thinking of getting SmartBro.
OT: Ano speed mo? sakin 128kbps, sa ******* 24kbps lang kapag download.

[Innova_Boy]

Ang galing naman niyan, 600+ KB/sec... maski manlang 100Kb/sec pede na sakin...

it highly depends on what package you subscribed to

i suscribed to 312kbps and the burst speeds im getting higest recorded was at 500+ kbps

maybe you only availed of the free zpdee. coz they give out free zpdees to platinum subscribers, if not i guess you are being short changed; so call their csr asap afaik they can manually adjust your connection speed

[froshie1]

try mo pards sa P2P such as Bit******* or Emule. kung 680Kb/sec pa rin yan mabilis yan!

[KrisKros]

Yep, I jinxed it, mabagal ulit haha. My internet stopped, n i couldnt go online for half the day, when the internet was ok again, it was slower. back to regular. oh well, it was good while it lasted

[pepengtom]

bilis niyan ah...

samin eto lang, try mo sa testmy.net
Your connection is: 743 Kbps or 0.7 Mbps
You downloaded at: 91 kB/s

[sHoCkAbSoRbEr]

600kbps? Enjoy yan ah. I use SmartBro din pero the average transfer rate I get is about 90kbps lang, depends on the site din kasi.

Btw, you can also ask SmartBro to re-calibrate your canopy to get the maximum signal strength.

Really? is that done through phone? or a technician has to come to my house to do that?

I'm back to normal now..i download around...40kbps-50kbps. The hyperspeed was good while it lasted heheh.

[boybi]

i once had a connection speed of 1mbps for less than an hour in my smartbro. hindi na naulit

[Dr.Kamiya]

Pang-claro lang. Technology terms like these very important ang capitalization.

600kB/s = 4800kbps (4.8Mbps)

kBps is kilobytes per second (how your browser measures dl speed)
kbps is kilobits per second (how your isp measures your speed)

1kBps = 8kbps

OP's warp speed was actually 4.8Mbps! That's super fast, talo mo pa ang T1/E1 connection.

[Dr.Kamiya]

*boybi
I think you meant 1Mbps, unless you were getting 1 millibit per second (about 1kbps, think modems circa 1980s) during that time.
OTOH marami atang PLDT subscribers na nakakatikim ng millibit speeds.
