Smart Bro bumps Plug-It speeds to 5Mbps

Looks like Smart Bro has upgraded the bandwidth allocation of their Plug-It broadband sticks and now offers up to 5Mbps.

I’ve been hearing about the upgrades for some time now but since the Smart website did not reflect the changes, we had to wait for the official release.

The update has just been posted recently, showing this table.

The Power Plug-It is now up to 5Mbps (postpaid). The Starter Plug-It is now up to 3.6Mbps (prepaid).

Of course, actual speeds will vary with time of day and location. It’s going to be pretty hard to validate this but if you get better speed results recently, do leave a comment and let us all know.

Hat tip to Chris Ammerlaan.

    Remember that TV commercial saying how good MSG was for you? Might as well be in China. False advertising with no consequences.
    Just bought a Globe 4g pocket Wi-Fi. On the box it reads “4get up to 12mbps” The SIM that’s included is only capable of 2 and 3g. Wtf.
