PLDT myDSL Upgrades Bandwidth Speed

Instagram now lets users reorder their posts on their profile iOS 27 Adds Native Baybayin Keyboard to iPhone: Here is How to Enable It AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE announced GPD MicroPC 2 with Intel Core 3 N350 announced Nintendo Direct to unveil Switch 2 games for second half of 2026

I’ve been wondering why almost 2 weeks now, my DSL connection has been acting up on me. It connects just fine but in a few minutes, there’s no internet then it comes back again then gone another minute. When I called up the customer rep the other day to downgrade my account, I explained to them that one of the reasons why I wanted to downgrade wast the broken promise they made last January.

Just now, while experience the same irritating problem with the dsl going on and off, I tried to check on my bandwidth speed at PLDTPlay and got this:

PLDT myDSL Upgrades

I couldn’t believe at first by I also tried other broadband speed test sites:

TestMy. net : 787 Kbps or 0.79 Mbps (96 kB/s)
2Wire : 700.10 Kbps
SpeakEasy : 556 kbps or 69.5 KB/sec.

Looks like a legit upgrade. Ok, lemme try with Limewire. :D

My current residential PLDT DSL plan is 1299, (Landline + Internet). Location: Lankaan, Dasma, Cavite

Sabi ng PLDT up to 512kbps daw ang 1299 plan pero I am receiving more than that, around 700kbps or sometime 1MB pa via speedtest.net

Gusto ko pa sana upgrade to Plan 999, (Internet is 999, Landline bill & charges are separate).

PLDT will give me up to 1mbps. My question is gaya rin ba yan ng current plan ko na mas mataas ang bigay sa akin?

Kung mabibigyan ako ng 1.5mbps ay payag na ko. Pero kung exact lang sa 1mbps ay doon na lang ako sa dati. konti lang difference eh.

I think you must check first if your operating system is not infected of different spy ware software or add ware.

Jhourlad Estrella · 17 years ago

Hey! What’s all these ruckus about? Reklamo kayo ng reklamo di pa kayo magpalit ng ISP. Alam nyo namang may sa dupang ang PLDT at alam ng buong mundo ‘yan, nagpupumilit pa kayong sa PLDT magsiksikan. Parang kayong sardinas sa ka**toinkz**ngahan, mga bop**awtz!**kz!.

IKAW PLDT

‘Di mo pa rin ba kasi get? MyDSL simply means “Their DSL”, not yours, eng2x! Eh di sana sinabi nilang “Your DSL”, eh kaso hindi.

Sa kanila yun hindi sa’yo. Sa kanila lahat ng advantage, bakit di mo basahin ang Terms of Agreement (may pamahiin kasi ang mga Pilipino na mga anghel ang nagpapatakbo ng PLDT at ang Diyos mismo ang may ari nito kaya di sila gagawa ng anumang masamang gawain tulad ng puro pakabig na “agreement”. Nek-nek nyo. Ang kaso agree ka naman ng agree kasi di mo binabasa pinagaaral ka kaya noon ng nanay mo ng English eh nag tong it-tong it ka naman wala ka tuloy internet ngayon.)

So in the end, ikaw ang talo. Sila pa rin ang panalo. Mahigit anim (6) na milyon kaya kayong biktima di kayo magdemanda. Tig pi-piso kayong ambag kahit si Fortun kaya nyong arkilahin. Kita pa kayo kung sakaling manalo kayo.

kase pre… yung DSL nag RESET ng kanilang source .. kaya kawawa ung mga activated account simula 2010 pa baba.. nka ganda lng ung reset nila sa mga newly activated accounts.. … try mo pa configure ung modem m… kung me ka kilala ka n gagawa… sabihin mu gawin nyang ” ROUTING ” ung modem mo… un … wala ka pproblemahin .. but .. it depends pa rin if compatible ang modem mo sa router mo.. new brand of modem is not compatible with older routers. .. so make sure na .. compatible silang dalawa… use zyXEL p-600 modem … sa router.. d link.. DIR-300 tapos i pa routing mode m..

do u have an upate about pldt’s Plan 990 (internet + landline) promo? para kasing malabo eh

How do you get an ip address from the US when you live in the Philippines and your isp is in the Philippines?

Is this service free? I’ve read of such ip changers but they charge exorbitant fees.

download IP HIDER…

Steve Winwood · 20 years ago

Try to use http://www.2wire.com this is a much better checker for the speed then PLDT has. I advice you also to get an IP address from the US, you will get better speed as well. Or, take out any security on your PC but download all in a imagefolder and deepfreeze all so that your PC remains clean. This is done by some Internet cafe”s as well.

I also heared there is a Spanish firm called FON, they offering DSL by just downloading their sofware, however i need to find out more about this.

I hope this helps you out,

Regards,
Steve
