Just got an SMS confirmation from Globe that they’ve already rolled out and servicing customers on their WiMax network. I’m still getting the details but the Inquirer ran the story last night that it will be 512Kbps at Php799 per month. This service will certainly be competing against Smart Bro’s Fixed Wireless offering.
Will update this post once I get the copy of the press release. Intel’s timing was just right when we had the WiMax forum yesterday.
Here’s part of the Press Release I got:
Globe is first in the Philippines to launch Wimax. Available starting March 2009, the company’s WIMAX package is a high-speed Internet plan that lets users surf the web at speeds of up to 512kbps for only PHP795 per month. The package also comes with an aggressive money-back guarantee. “We challenge anyone with a competitive wireless subscription to try out our Wimax-backed plans. We are so confident with our service that we challenge you try out our connection, risk-free. Should you be unhappy with the connection within one month from installation, we’ll give you your money-back, no questions asked,” says Menchi Orlina, head of the Consumer Broadband Business Group.
The service is initially available in selected areas in South Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. Globe will continue to roll-out hundreds of WiMAX sites, as a complement to its existing DSL and 3G internet facilities, to ensure the internet gets to every Filipino who needs it.
Interested households may call (02)919-8888 or visit the nearest Globe Payments and Services centers for further inquiries.
WiMAX is short for Worldwide interoperability for Microwave Access. It is a standards-based technology designed to enable the deployment of wireless broadband access as a cost-efficient alternative to cable and DSL; WIMAX also has improved reach and can cover distances greater than those covered by other wireless technologies like WiFi, CDMA, or 3G.
Globe’s network is considered the first and biggest 2.5Ghz WiMAX (802.16e) broadband network in South East Asia.

512kbps medyo mabagal yata yun.
D’oh! love the timing… just signed up for a globe dsl line today. Then again, I want at least 1mbt…am already going to keep my smartbro connection as a backup.
I agree, 512kbps is sloooooooow…
in Korea, they offer their wimax services at 3MBPS.

hey yuga, my comments were captured by your Spam plugin…
Globe reps say this is for last mile solution — areas not reached by DSL and cable lines.
@ Seoul-box – don’t see them in my Spambox.
internet in the philippine are getting more exciting! from time to time. Thx for the info Yuga!
Meron pa kayang ibang Plan? I’m planning to get another ISP kaya lang freelancer lang ako kaya ala akong mga documents na maprovide..
sana meron mga 2MBPS for 2K? pd na siguro un..
What is stopping local telecom companies, except Sky Broadband, from offering broadband speeds beyond 3Mbps for residential customers?
do you think telecom firms are afraid that residential customers will just use it for P2P?
is the technology in key cities not capable of handling more bandwidth?
if you only pay Php799 per month for an internet connection, a 512Kbps is not bad at all. If you want 1mbps or more, then pay the price.
“What is stopping local telecom companies, except Sky Broadband, from offering broadband speeds beyond 3Mbps for residential customers?”
well, accept it you’re in the Philippines.
we can only hope that these wiMAX tech reach as far as to farmlands and not only to key cities. till now hirap pa ngang makakuha ng 3G signal sa province.
be entertained
512kbps too slow? You spoiled kid, I started on 32kbps modem then got 56k we were happy then.
im now enjoying my WiMax thru Globe since last year ..:-)
Ouch!
Im excited to see this technology here in the Philippines but the speed is very disappointing.
Well, its nice to have that technology than none.
Im sure other competitors will rise and this speed will force to increase in some time.
@Karl Mac
- There are no flash, multiple video site and huge image size back then, today we have a different content in the internet.
that is such a poor implementation of the use of wimax. also makes me wondering how much their adapters are going to be. and wasnt this supposed to be launched last year?
@madzman23
wimax was already being tested by intel and current feasibility imo is not at a point where telcos will reap.
What if they don’t deliver the 512 KBps? What are the legal actions recommended?
@Karl Mac
I also endured the internet of the 1990s. I’m probably older than you.
I guess once you tried or had 24Mbps on an ADSL2+ connection overseas, 512kbps, which is not even guaranteed is just too slow.
aba mukhang magandang balita ito a. available na to?
iGadgetsToday
Modacom is leading company for wimax devices.
please contact to me !!
itk@modacom.co.kr
still not available in south luzon =( I just called their customer server. need to wait for 3 months from now
May Wimax device na ba si GLOBE?
Kelan implementation nyan after 5 years pa?!
As far as I know, they have started selling in Cebu already…
They are using Huawei BM625 ata as indoor CPE…
at least much more promising than smart’s P999 plan right? hope competition never stop in this country – for a better good of course.
No harm in trying guys since it’s money back guarantee.
Hope it’s not a trap.
hi-speed = 512K
someone in globe marcom is still in 1998
is this really the best that south east asia can come up with?
wimax 512kbps, ok na yun! mura naman, if you’re browsing the net, and just watch youtube ok na yun, now I hope they incorporate wimax in cellphone, panalo yun!
smart nga nasa 384kbps, tapos mas mahal pa. maglalagay ka pa ng dambuhalang antenna.
if you’re within range of other high-speed “last mile” options, then Globe Wimax is expensive. but if Wimax is the only thing that will reach you, then it’s a good deal.
btw, “last mile” just means “final leg to customer”. it does not mean “the only option”
it also does not mean “the last or best option”. however, Wimax wireless technology just really works on greater distances. and it should have greater bandwidth. so the 512kbps limit is artificial to generate greater profits for those who have no other broadband options
Another first from Globe!
512 kbps is a bit slowwww
but still a good news
nag-wimax agad samantalmay wimax pang nalalaman itong globe na ito pero yung visibility prepaid nyo hindi nyo inaayos ang service kahit HSDPA laging bumabagsak.
Wow new technology good news for the phil customers
wish ko lang sana wag nilang kalimutan ang BACKHAUL dahil once na mag click e2 at dumame ang customer theyll just have a bottleneck and another lousy wireless ISP. If you know how smartbroken works then youll know what i mean.
I think the speed is worth for its price.
As of the moment Smartbro ok na ako, medyo tamed na sila, decreased na ang downtime ng internet connection nila since mid-last year.
wondering if available d2 yan sa gumaca, quezon. We are tired of Digitel. 1mbps contract nmin for 1500php but were only reaching like 384kbps.. >_> so kung meron wimax d2 we rather switch to that kahit 512kbps pa lng available nila. I wish available na yan d2.
Btw,I would just like to comments on the new Smartbro Plug-In (prepaid) or Plan P1995 just bought from Smart
Wireless Center at Robinsons Galleria. It’s so slow that it took 1.5 – 2 mins. before you get connected. But you are being charge already even you are not yet connected. When you are disconnecting, it also took a minute before you are properly disconnected. The more it becomes slower the better for Smart bcoz we are being charged Php10.00 every 30 or fraction of a 30 mins. Just don’t know if this Plan P1995 will last forever.
may question po ako mei alam po ba sa inyo kung papaano mag setup ng wireless internet sa bahay.. etong wimax ang gamit ko… meron na akong router pero hindi ko alam kung papaano maiconnect dito… ayaw tlga eh.. tulong po..
ok lang maski anong klase yan, yong 799peso is not for the poor it is still for employed person. how about the others!!!!! like the farmers?
@ilto
i couldn’t see the link between farmers-to-WiMax, isn’t a giant leap to co-exist the two?
wow! it’s very fast…. amazing
ka ka-install lang ng globe wimax namin last week, at ang masasabi ko lang ay hindi naman sobrang mabagal, pero mabagal talaga siya. yung sinasabi nilang 512kpbs ay “UP TO” lang yun, means yun na ang pinakamabilis na speed nyang maabot pro di ibig sabihin ganun parati yung speed nya…ewan ko lang, cguro kaya mabagal samin kasi bago pa pero na try ko na smart dati mabilis eh..
-ANG KAYA LANG NG GLOBE WIMAX NAMIN IS HANGGANG ONE TO TWO ACTIVE TABS, HINDI NA NYA KAYANG MAG 3 TABS OR MORE, MOZILLA GAMIT KO.DIBA ANG BAGAL NA NUN? YUNG SMART NAMIN DATI KAYA NYA KAHIT ILANG TABS AT KAHIT ILANG DOWNLOADS PA YAN….
PAANO BA GUMAGANA YANG WIMAX BAKIT ANG BAGAL? MGA 6 KILOMETERS LANG NAMAN ANG LAYO NG GLOBE TOWER SA LOCATION KO TAPOS NASA TAAS PA KAMI,,,,MERON BANG MAY ALAM KUNG BAKIT GANYAN YAN?
hi. I’ve been using globe wimax since mar 17, and i’m actually satisfied. i’ve been watching movies online almost everynight and it works fine, some buffer at the start, but fine all the way.
i’ve also tried webcam and voice, crystal clear.
not bad at all.
We just had globe wimax installed in our house about 2 weeks ago. A demo unit from an agent was installed and it was impressive.. but not for long. A week later, another unit was installed, and the connection went soooooooooooo bad! It disconnects every now and then – grrrr!!!!!!!!!! Globe, I want my money back!!! It just sucks really!!!!
E2 tinry lng namin kasi money back guarantee daw. D2 kmi sa cebu. Hindi to msyado maganda. ung pwesto ng pc namin nilipat pa namin sa may bintana para lng umabot ung nilagay nila na external antenna. ok naman kasi mabilis at umaabot naman ng 512kbps pero paminsan badtrip kahit 4 signal dl speed mo aabot lng ng 10kbps o wala tlga lalo na pag umuulan mababadtrip ka kasi wala ka tlga mapuntahan! kahit pala hindi umuulan basta mdyo cloudy patay na ahhaa
ang tanong….makakadownload ba ako agad sa rapidshare and other file sites? natakot na akong magtry sa globe after kong makita na hindi ka agad makakadownload sa rapidshare gawa ng ip na gamit nila. even sa torrents madidismaya ka buti na lang di ko pa agad pinadisconnect smartbro 999 ko. sana maupgrade na ng smart and connection ng mga canopy subscribers nila kahit 512 kbps lng din…..or 768kbps….
ok po ba ito pang p2p?
mr eric ,, ok poh sya sa rapidshare lgi poh syang nakakapag dl ,ndi ka2lad sa smart lgi pong my ndi maka dl gawa ng isang ip lng ata ang gnagamit nila,, ska poh itong inapply namin na wimax ay my speed na 1mbps + telepono 1,125 per month,, at ska poh libre poh ang pakabit namin d2 sa wimax nmin , promo daw eh, sabi pag ndi namin nagstuhan ibabalik na lng namin ung modem nila sa mall(globe centers?),pero pag nagstuhan bbyad lng ,, geh bye.. pero ang bagal hahahha kht 1mbps feeling ko parang 384kbps lng hahah
im using globe wimax now (april’09).. as of now i have a good connection up to 512kbps.. cool.. i will upgrade it to 1mbps w/ landline for only 999..
im using globe wimax now (april’09).. as of now i have a good connection up to 512kbps.. cool.. i will upgrade it to 1mbps w/ landline for only 999.. you can also use it as p2p.. torrent☺.. cheers..®
hi all.. any reviews on the landline service via wimax?? i’ve had some bad experience with globe’s wireless landlines. Had the speak n’ surf promo before… it was all bad… yeah the intenet was bearable,.. can;t remember the speeds but at least it was stil better than dial up. but the landline was terrible… my mobile phone was clearer.
Umm..gamit ko ngayon yang globe wimax plan 795.. Natuwa ako kasi umaabot ng 700 kbps siguro dahil malapit lang ung tower nila dito samin. Ang kinainis ko lang nawawalan sya ng conection ok na sana.. Mag 2 days na kong walang conection. Kainis
Hello Guys,
I told Globe about some of your issues with their WiMax service. They said they’d be glad to help you out as long as you provide details about your accounts so they can check it.
i have availed of globe wireless broadband here.
not quite sure if it is the “Wimax Plan”
I have my connection 3 days after a fill-up a form.
512kbps is my plan for P995?
at first i check out the globe site…
nkita ko na lang na 795 lang ung 512kbps…
tpos mas masakit pa eh. ngtry aq mgdownload ng files. EXE 5mb ung file. un a max of 21kbps ang download ko. hayz. sobrang bagal
512kbps, ang bagal. Para lang talaga kumita sila. Hehe. Kasi dapat atleast 1-2 Mbps bigay nila. They’re just over subscribing, for example, instead of 1000+ users per T1 satellite, they divide it into 2000+. Kaya bumabagal connections.
Btw, I think weather has minimal effect on your wimax connection unless may bagyo na talaga, the problem is more with network congestion. I believe Wi-Max is NLOS, non line of sight.
hi! im just about to try globe wi-max’s 1MB. meron clang free trial up to 2 weeks dto sa lugar namin, Bagong SIlang Caloocan to be at the exact location. The question is, can they provide static IP for me or not? any GLOBE WIMAX USERS CAN ANSWER. Thanks!
available n b yang wimax sa binalonan,pangasinan?
is this a fixed wimax? meron kasi mobile wimax e
Globe WiMax also offer a plan of
1295.00 for 1Mbps + landline..
I am very dissapointed with Globe…I got their new plan 995 WiMax 3G last week (Internet Only). I am from Imus Cavite. As i have spoke with globe personnel they promise me to give 512kbps or at least 60% of the speed.
Since last week after installation i am only getting an average of 110kbps DL and 40kbps UL, i reported this several times and still WALANG PAGBABAGO MAS LUMALA PA. Two of their Contractor technician pass by in my house last sunday but still reported globe internal problem. And yesterday they sent me the first bill, which was supposed to be after a month. Dyan sila magaling sa singilan pero sa services di nila inaaksyunan. I will report this today and i want to disconnect from their services. Its not worth what are you paying for!
to Rnoldcast, wala silang inoofer na 995 Wimax 3G. Baka 995 na 3G ang sinubscribe mo. Wimax as i asked them is 512kbps pa lang @ 795 ang offered nila. I’m also a Wimax Sub here in Laguna and I’m very satisfied naman.
^_^
Q#1

download speed min 20 kbps to max 55.kbps torrent
apply on july 16 kahapon lang na install globe service sack.. hinde pa masyadong marunong yung mga tech nila.. nagtatanong pa sa sa akin saan daw ang site tower nila …which hinde ko alam.. mga globe Technician hinde nila alam kung saan ang mga site tower nila hinde nila alam kung saan derection nila ilagay ang external antenna????
taga bulacan kami, nagpunta dito kahapon para mag install ng wimax ang globe,nilabas ang huawei modem, akala ko walang atenna na ikakabit kaso meron pala, naghanap sila ng signal sa bubong kahit na malapit lang kami sa cellsite ng globe siguro mga 2-3 km lang, kaso 2 signal lang ang kanilang nakuha, ang sabi: “sir, may nakaharang ng building”, ang sabi ko , akala ko ba wimax ito, hindi na kailangan ng line of sight? ang sabi ng technician, sir, para kasi syang smartbro, sabi ko ang smartbro wifi hindi wimax.tapos sinabi nila hindi pwedeng ikabit kasi mahina signal, pinapirma ako, sabay alis na sila, ang tanong ko wimax ba ito???
Less than a month pa lang ang connection namin (zamboanga city) ung 512 kbps. Gusto ko sana ung 1mbps kaso for business establishments lang daw un. Minor prob lang ang naencounter namin so far, meron lang un isang araw (not d whole day though) na nawala ung connection as in walang signal sa modem but other than that ok tyaka up to 1mbps ung speed kaya oks na oks. I just need to have my pc checked kasi naghahang sya m sure pc ang may prob hindi ang internet. I called their hotline once, very accomodating ung rep na sumagot.
Wimax 1Mbps is already availble here in Sta. Rosa Laguna… Im alomost getting 100% connection (130Kbps download) Good! pero kahapon bumagal amp 5Kbps dl WTF!!! I called Globe, may problem daw nationwide because of the earthquake in Japan… Apektado daw SE Asia… ANyone got the same issue?
I have a problem also with my Globe wimax internet connection biglang naging 2 bar na lang ang signal stenght at mabagal…since yesterday
@Kage – Sir san kayo sa sta rosa laguna??..at saka ung 1mbps mo ba may kasamang landline at saka how much??.

———
try mo baguhin yung ip address ng router mo baka kc parehas ng ip address ung wimax modem at router. kaya ayaw gumana kc complict sa ip.
Ex. 192.168.1.1 change it to 192.168.2.1
madalas ganito ang problem in setting up wireless router connected to modem.
techguy,
just found this forum, check this link for your prob:
http://www.philmug.ph/forum/archive/index.php/t-35278.html
***depende kasi sa ip addresses ng wimax router and yung 2nd router mo.
just got installed last aug 13 kinuha namin 1mbps, sabi ng contractor sa una daw 512 kbps muna then eventually magiging 1mbps. At first it was very impressive, sa youtube di nagba-buffer then simula na ng kalbaryo…intermittent, slow and minsan no connection at all! kahit pa puno yung signal bars! I’ve tried to contact their hotline at nakakainis pa mga TSR’s nila parang walang masyadong alam. May major cable cut daw because of the earthquake in Japan so ok lang, sa Aug 17 daw ok na so understandable kumbaga. Then came aug 17, walang pinagbago, super bagal talaga…wala nako magagawa may lock in period sila na 1 yr and i have to pay 2.5k for the termination fee! I’m hoping/praying na maayos pa sana, wala naman silang globelines dito sa north caloocan (senate village) para sa wired internet. Sayang!
Marami pa po ang mga broadband connection under wireless.Kaya lang po lahat may limitation dahil po sa resources katulad ng transmission facilities at capacity ng mga site at ang mga server kung saan kayo kokonek hindi po pareparehas ang transmission facilities nito kahit anong bilis ng nkikita nyo connection hindi nyo makukuha.

Im a Globe WiMax Subsrciber in Zambo. City.. Sabi nila its 795 a month, kararating lang ng 1st month bill namin, its 1,016 po not 795.. and sa 1 month use namin ng GLOBE WIMAX kunoh, ilang beses rin nawawalan ng signal, from 5 bars to none.. they use HUAWEI whatever and an antenna outside my room.. (-.-”)
Ang bagal ng globe wimax!!!!! 100%
di maganda ang propagation ng signal ng wimax pag nasa masyadong tagong lugar na sa loob ng bahay kaya di bumabagal ito
ano ba ang ‘to napakahina ng globe broadband. tagal maka-connent. globe fix this common problem of your subscriber.
Anyone here who’s from sto. niño, meycauayan, bulacan who have globe wimax installed? ano average speed nila talaga per day? hindi kasi ako naniniwala sa sinsabi nilang 24/7 1 mbps ang 1 mbps nilang connection eh.
@ Raikonoken, i’m from sto. nino, ph3A, tingin ko try mo yung PLDT mydsl, may umiikot na agent ngayon, i think it’s far better than any wireless internet. naka-globe ako ngayon pero mabagal, i’m planning to pre-terminate this and try for pldt, kung magkakaroon nga dito.
chad,
salamat sa reply. anong plan iyang sa iyo? nag-apply na rin ako two days ago. same agents selling TIHS pala sila. terms and conditions nila sa kontrata bulok. nilimitahan ang pinaka-importanteng parte, ang p2p. bakit pa ba kukuha ng mabilis na internet ang mga tao kung lilimitahan ang p2p, ‘di ba?
anyway, since naka-apply na ako, tingnan ko na rin kung ano sa kanila ng smart broken ang mas mabilis.
balitaan din kita kung anong performance ng wimax ko ‘pag naikabit na.
i’m originally from north caloocan wherein my wimax is installed (see my previous post)kalbaryo talaga! then dinala ko yung modem dito sa frisco, qc na may 4 signal bars lang (sa caloocan full bars) pero much better ang connection dito, wala pang outdoor antenna yun which means sa location ang problem hindi sa pc or signal katulad ng sinasabi ng mga TSRs nila. i will try to call globe later and see kung ano masasabi nila dito.
uhh.. sucks! we need speeds as fast as those in sokorea. walang kokontra!!! if they can, then why can’t we? ka’batch lng natin yang bansang yan ah!
good news! Globe has a special promo today until October 31, 2009. they’re selling Globe Tattoo kit for only Php895. Speed is up to 2Mbps. For those freelancers or anyone who cannot present any documents for line application, they can avail the Tattoo Kit and pay the P895. Simply reload the globe sim via autoload or call card.
chad,
their 30-day free trial is not true. i-install na dapat ang globe wimax ko ngayon, hindi ko na pinakabit.
sabi ba naman ng installer, hindi raw ako sakop ng 30-day trial. eh, iyon ang sabi sa akin ng agent na pinag-apply-an ko at noong mga 3 csr ng globe na nakausap ko, na pwede ko i-avail iyon. sabi ng installer, after 30 days, matatanggap ko ang unang bill. KCUF that!
bago pa iyon, isang beses naantala ang installation dahil pumunta sila nang hindi man lang tumawag. eh, wala ako sa bahay, alangan namang ipa-install ko. sabi sa akin noong agent, tatawagan daw muna ako for confirmation. so tumawag ako sa globe para i-report ang nangyari at sabihing sa ganitong oras ako puntahan. tumawag sila kinabukasan (dahil SIRA daw ang system nila noong tumawag ako)para tanungin ULI kung anong oras pwede. sinabi ko na ganitong oras sila pumunta.
akalain mong hindi pumunta sa takdang oras. halatang umiiwas. sabi wala raw nakalagay sa job order nila. ang mga hayop! wala palang kuwenta ang escalations nila. malamang kaya umiiwas na naroon ako kasi may gagawing milagro. ayun nga, ‘yung 30-day trial na hindi raw ako eligible.
pinaalis ko, hindi ko pinirmahan ang pina-re-receive nila, pina-iwan ko ang pink copy ng application form na walang kuwenta, pati ‘yung flyer na inilalako nila, pinaiwan ko rin.
mas bulok pala ang globe. globe bobo dapat eh, hindi broadband.
Hmmm… Good day everyone, uhh.. Kanina ko lang kasi to nakita sa SM, tanung ko lang kung may taga-cavite na may ganito nang klase ng connection.. Balak ko po kasi magpa-connect nito kesa sa SMART BROken.. Sa tingin niu po??? Thanks! ^^
baket kaya ganun?? nung past few days 4 ang signal strength ko tapos ngaun lang nakita ko naging 3.. pero hnd ko ramdam na bumagal ung
internet connection?? pero cguro bumagal nga xa..
meron ba ditong taga-pasig na nakakaranas ng super intermittent ng connection sa wimax? pansin ko pag madami ng tabs nawawalan na .. anyone experiencing this? salamat po!
tama ka Raikonoken. kami din nag-avail ng wimax dito sa los baños, laguna nung august 28. di kami nagbayad ng 1st-month, pero sakop pa daw kami nung 1-month free trial. so okay, go kami. nung first 2 days siguro, okay pa yung signal, mabilis mag-net. after that, wala na. paputol-putol, kung minsan wala talaga (kahit full bars), kung minsan naman nagbi-blink yung bars.
tumawag kami sa CSR nila friday last last week, (sept. 4). sabi wala naman daw problema sa area namin, magpapa-dala na lang daw ng technician in 2-3 days para tingnan. namuti na mata namin kakahintay, walang dumating. tumawag pa kami ng ilang beses sa CSR (9 more times to be exact).
fast forward to sept. 15. ano’t me dumating na bill?! da hell? nauna pang dumating yung bill kesa sa technician?! tas akala ko ba 1-month free trial to? at hindi 750 ang nasa bill ha, lampas 1K pa.
this saturday, ipapaputol na namin to sa business center nila sa calamba. at pag ipagpilitan na magbayad kami, ihahampas ko sa mukha nila yung printed copy ng globe wimax site na nagsasabing 1-month free trial tong bulok na serbisyo nila. so confident pala ha.(http://site.globe.com.ph/web/guest/broadband/news/2?sid=1253167421628 paragraph 6)
sa mga nakaka-experience nito, sound off tayo. baka sakaling makarating sa NTC ang pagnanakaw na to ng globe.
tama ka pektus.. sakin nga hndi man lang tumatagal ng 30 minutes connection ko.. pagnanakaw na talaga toh!
At ano naman ang gagawin ng NTC (No Time for Complaints)? ilang taon na bang nagrereklamo ang mga tao sa smart broken, sa digihell, sa globe bobo?
walang kuwenta ang NTC. ‘yung disappearing loads sa cell, ang tagal bago nila “na-aksyunan,” ito pa kayang internet?
pero nakakatuwang nakalulungkot na may mga kasama pala ako sa kamalasan, sina pektus.
yikess.buti na lang at nabasa ko mga reply dito.im planning to change my globe broadband connection to wimax.buti na lang at hindi pa ikinakabit.im cancelling it and stick to my current connection.thanx peeps.
Got my Globe Wimax installed 2 days ago, nung 1st day ang bilis talaga, ok ang youtube video pati un mga site na mabagal at busy na matagal mag load. Ma compare mo ito sa wired na pldtdsl 1mbps na residential, 2nd day cloudy at medyo uulan ata, 2pm pawala wala ang signal, intermitent hanggang gabi then umulan totally wala na signal pero un bar nasa 2 pa. Tumawag ako sa hotline nila sabi may tech. problem daw. Kanina umaga back to normal na, nakakapanuod na mga kids ko full length ng favorite nila barbie at bratz video sa youtube ng walang putol. Hoping na sana tech prob lang talaga that time. Pero add ko lang din, yesterday I checked the connection of smartbro of my friend and it was 700kbps sa speedtest.net, totoo ba kaya ito para di mag switch ang smartbro user sa wimax, goodnews to sa mga subscriber.
buti na lang tnx peops!
shOCKzz!!
ang bagal nman ng GLOBE WIMAX!
bkit gnun hindi ko magamit yung landline nmen!
tsk! mas the best ang SMART BRO!
ampf.!
Globe Wi-max? maganda lng pangalan pero bulok ang serbisyo. kahit yung sub-contractor/installer nila di agree sa serbisyo ng globe kasi kulng daw cla ng towers kung baga tinipid. from calamba,Laguna kaya kung ako sa inyo wag na kayo mag balak dahil nag hanap kayo ng problema ninyo pag tinuloy ninyo
Auz naman po ang globe wimax d2 sa amin
sa mamatid laguna cab..
dahil 5 0 6 steps lang tanaw mo na ang tower ng globe
mabilis po sya promise
pero d ngalang sya umaabot sa 512kbs hanggang 400to 350 kbs lang pero auz na un pag nag uutube ako wala syang buffering
This would be nice shot… d2 kasi sa amin medyo malayo sa town, but we’re still part of the city. Ang signal pa lang ng internet d2 is gprs. No landline, no dsl. I think it would be better than gprs… sana umabot na rin yan d2.
comment ko lang. experience ko na dito sa area ko davao region. ok naman tong globe mas nakaka pag browse pa ako at nakakapag youtube. kesa dito sa smartBro share-it na to. mabilis lang to (2.78Mbps) nung first 2 weeks na nagamit ko. pero ngayon laging “the connection was reset” di man lang maka email.

sir at mam kakakabit lang po ng wimax dito last monday samin so far ok naman pag nakakonect kaya naman mag p2p kaso lang wag masyado loaded. ang problem ko is hindi nila ikinabit ung external antenna ko modem lang kasi malakas naman daw signal ko (2-3 blinks ng wimax led sa modem) ikakabit ko sana kaso hindi kasya ung coaxial cable ng exernal antenna dun sa wimax port for the antenna. meron po ba itong connector pa or jack kasi maliit ung sa port ng modem. can you help me guys kung anong ikakabit dun. hindi pa din ako binabalikan ng globe sabi ko pabalikin installers.
ganun din dito sa san jose del monte bulacan. pumangit un signal ng globe after ng bagyo.. un external antenna ko nga nilagay ko sa mahabang tubo(20 feet) tapos tinataas ko kapag di umuulan, ok nman un sagap ng signal 5 bars..
Wimax ba talaga ang ginagamit ni Globe? yung sa akin nakalagay HSDPA. parehu lang ba yun?
sir6on9, direct b ung cable ng antenna dun sa modem ?ung coaxial? modem ko kasi ung puti n trapezoid ang hugis
Balak kung mag wimax dito sa pasay, malapit sa airport. OK kaya? Pag malakas ba signal sa globe cellphone ibig sabihin ba ay malakas din ang wimax.
Please respond lalo na sa mga taga pasay. Tnx.
badtrip yang globe wimax na yan..last 2 weeks pa ko nagapply hanggang ngayon di pa din kinakabit..gggrrrrrrrr..

ang gamit ko kc ay WiMAX CPE EchoLife BM625.. un kc ung binigay nla sakin.. meron syang high transmit power built in antenna and external antenna..both of them pwede tanggalin.. meron syang socket na parang sa tv antenna.. binigayn nla ako ng external antenna tapos kinabit sa labas ng bahay nmin pero and ginawa ko tinanggal ko un, kinabit ko ung external antenna(parang maliit na canopy ng smart) sa mahabang tubo(mga 20 feet) tapos tinatayo ko yun kapag walang ulan.. kung gagawin nyo man to.. make sure na tatagaling nyo kapag umuulan lalo na kapag my kidlat.. di daw kasi water proof yan..
oo nga pla, payo skin ng ahente ng globe dati bago ako kabitan, dapat daw magpakabit ako ng antenna sa labas.. sabihin ko raw sa globe installers na magdala cla ng external antenna kasi kasama un sa package… payo ko lang sau wicked, kulitin mo lang yung globe…hehehe
