    My globe*home just got upgraded to 100 mbps. I'm happy about it.

    The sad part is when it joins my load balancing router and main WiFi. I only get to 90 mbps, 100 mbps globe + 20 mbps streamtech.

    I just learned that my hardware is load balancing not wan bonding router.

    It seems Wan bonding router is an enterprise solution at mahal for a just a home WiFi. Anyway....[emoji17]screenshot_20220616-061655.jpg

    Sir BratPAQ, free yang upgrade mo?
    Alam mo ba bad trip ako dyan kay Globe.. Nagkaroon ako ng trust issue kahit feeling ko gawa-gawa lang ng isip ko..
    Nakatanggap ako ng tawag sa kanila last week para free upgrade pero after 6 months from 1699, magiging 1899 na yung MCF ko.. Syempre tinanggihan ko, satisfied na kasi ako dahil ako lang naman ang gumagamit ng net dito sa bahay.. Namamahalan na nga ako sa 1699 na unli hindi ko naman ma-maximize yung internet.. Nanggaling ako sa Plan 999 na capped sa 50GB nung una, hanggang naging 100GB per month ni hindi nga ako nag-over sa 50GB (pre-pandemic) kasi lagi ako nasa labas at ginagamit ko lang net kapag may weekend work ako and nood ng anime ng weekend..
    Then Sunday 10PM nawalan na ako ng internet.. Napuno na ako kahapon umaga, nung nakita ko may promo PLDT Unli Fibr 1699 50Mbps tapos may free installation.. Nag-file na ako ng termination request sa Globe, tapos paggising ko meron na ako internet. Tumawag daw yung Globe sabi ng papa ko hindi niya lang ako ginising..

    Bad trip!! Parang last time nung Plan 1299 ako na ayaw ko din mag-upgrade to 1699, nagka-network issue din ako na inabot na ng 1 month mahigit di nila ma-fix connection ko hanggang sa napilitan na ako mag-upgrade ng Php1699 yun lang daw nakikita nila paraan (malas pa hindi na free installation at yung upgrade ko)... So anu ito? Naulit uli.. Tsk!!
    Mabuti na lang talaga malakas yung Smart Mobile internet ko nakakapag trabaho ako kahit 3 webex meeting sabay-sabay at nakakapag-share desktop pa ako.. Dahil dyan napa-renew na tuloy ako ng Smart Mobile plan ko kahapon, kasi baka lalagpas ako 5GB, yung renew ng plan na sim only lock-in 12 months meron 20GB Data, free 5G din (kaso wala naman ako 5G phone)..

    Yes free upgrade, vdsl kasi kami dati. One thing I liked about globe as nagta taas sila ng speed para sabay sa mga bago customers. Yung iba kasi walang upgrade ng speed kahit may offer sila na same price pero faster sa mga new customer.

    Ok naman experience ko sa Globe support. Gusto ko yung sms notification ng mga visit nila. PLDT naman ako may bad experience pero tingin ko tamad lang yung tech nila sa site nila. The tech will reset our connection then pag OK na ng few seconds sarado na yung repair ticket. Eh ang problem intermittent. I logged the ticket number and date sa notepad. After 6 months yata, at maraming ticket number nagpunta na kami sa pldt and I showed the csr the long list of closed tickets and without satisfying resolution.

    Kaya nag apply ako ng Globe as backup. Mas friendly yung customer support ng Globe compared sa pldt. Pero mas stable daw yung internet connection ng pldt according to my wife pag kumo connect sya sa office. Tanong ka muna sa mga kapit bahay mo na naka pldt kung ok connection nila. Minsan kasi nasa lugar yan. Pansin ko sa Globe masipag sa tech visit. Unlike pldt, it took 6 months bago kami na visit ng tech at nakita na nasa line yung problem.

    There's a downside to this which I realized back then when I was having intermittent signal problems with Globe. Feeling ko nun may network problem talaga sila and it makes sense to just keep on sending techs rather than admit it.

    If not for Converge giving speed upgrades like there's no tomorrow these 2 MFs won't even budge and would have kept their subscribers in 25mbps. [emoji23]

    Honestly I don't know what is the limit right now because they kept on increasing the limit what I remember is that when I applied for plan 1299 years ago it is around 5 or 10mbps at that time.

    1699 with a permanent discount when I availed it under a promo so I'm paying around 1.4k.

    Medyo mabagal sa phone ko pero sa desktop PC ko nasa 320Mbps down 160Mbps up. 3ms ping. It's been like this since they gave the free speedboost last 2020. Either they forgot all about it or they have lots of surplus bandwidth.screenshot_20220616-131155_speedtest.jpg

    Yung globe namin, nag-apply ako DSL pa lang ang meron. PLan 1699 * 10 o 15 mbps ata yun. Then this year lang nakapasok ang fiber sa lugar namin and naupgrade na yung connection namin to fiber. Nung una 30 mbs lang yung speed nung namigrate kami tapos may free upgrade daw to 60 mpbs. Naglalaro dito yung result ng speedtest namin.

    Sad.. May Php 4500 Pre-termination fee.. Bad trip!
    Yung 60Mbps daw, pero mababa pa sa 35Mbps (old plan ko) ang speedtest.. Tapos pagbabayarin pa ako ng Php 4500 kahit sila naman may pagkukulang..
    Mapapa-kanta na lang talaga ako..

    Thank you, Converge sa consistent service ever since nagpakabit ako nung 2020 ng Plan 1500.





    Hindi ko nga lang na-utilize ng mabuti kasi browsing lang naman, You Tube at Netflix.

    Nareport mo na using the GlobeAtHome app? Usually mabilis lang ang response nyan and kinabukasan may pupunta na. Pwede rin maswerte lang kami sa subcon ng area namin.

    Ang sales support nila ang makupad. Took them several months to approve my credit limit increase para maka-upgrade ako. Nung nagfollowup ako sabi ba naman pumunta na lang sa branch para maprocess agad. Imagine bibigyan na sila ng pera papahirapan ka pa. Hinayaan ko na hanggang biglang nakita kong nagbago na plan while checking my bills sa app. Wala man lang notification.

    BTT: Plan 2199 200mpbs fiber unli. Mas consistent ang quality nito compared to nung naka-VDSL pa kami. I set the modem to bridge mode and hooked it up to a Deco M5 router.

    Ganun sila dati, nung may live agent pwedeng kausap sa hotline.. Hindi ko alam at baka may kakaibang network issue talaga sa area ko..
    Nag-request na ako uli ng tech visit, pangalawang request ko na simula Sunday. Cancelled na kasi ang status ng unang tech visit request ko..
