Sun Cellular unveils Wireless Broadband Plans

The tip we got earlier this month about Sun Cellular Wireless Broadband was spot on. New mobile 3G packages are now available at the Sun Cellular website announcing attractive rates.

Sun Cellular will be offering flat rate plans, the only other unlimited 3G plans in the Philippines today (PLDT WeRoam postpaid plans also offer unlimited 3G services, though only for corporate accounts).

Sun 3G Plan 799
up to 400kbps
60 hours/month
Php799 MSF

Sun 3G Plan 999
up to 400kbps
unlimited
Php999 MSF

Sun 3G Plan 1999
up to 1.4Mbps
unlimited
Php1,999 MSF

*The Sun Broadband Wireless service is initially available in the Metro Manila only.

    have the same problem few mnths ago the solution is you can bought a usb extention for your broadban and it should be 2.0 mas maganda kung mga 3 meters or 6 ang bilhin mo sa cdrking pangkatapos mas maganda kung ilalagay mo ang sun mo sa malapit sa bintana at mataas na lugar mas llakas ang signal nyan or pag mabagal pa rin pumunta k n sa sun center

    Nagsubscribe ako sa sun 799 Unlimited. I paid the router also. nung first days ng subscription OK naman. I only have 1 laptop and 1 desktop sharing sa WIFI. nakalock ang wifi so that means ako lang nakakagamit. Pero after a week of usage, madalas magdrop ang download speed ko sa 10kbps. Tapos ang bagal magsurf ng mga sites. Even my blog takes 3 to 5 minutes.

    i have Windows XP Professional in my desktop and Ubuntu in my Laptop. I am located sa MegaPlaza Ortigas Center.

    Anyone who can give me tips to have a faster connection? i am not a Youtube fun or any online streaming things. I am a web designer and all i do is code, surf and upload my projects.

    Note: first 2 weeks, I always have wcdma but after that, all I have is HSDPA and that connection gives me 40kbps maximum.

    I just singed up for sun broadband postpaid last month. The USB modem is P1600 and they charge P800/month. I’m at the Makati waltermart area, and when I bought it the sales rep told me I was in an area with an okay signal.

    Pros:
    – no need for any paperwork to avail, just a valid ID
    – did not see any disconnection issues
    – consistent connection speed (unlike w/ Globe Visibility sometimes you browse fast and sometimes not at all)
    – if you like to stop using their service, just apply for disconnectin and throw away the sim and get a prepaid Sun sim. Then if you want to use their postpaid service again just get a new sim

    Cons:
    – forget about torrent downloads unless you are VERY PATIENT
    – consistently below average browsing speed, you may as well forget youtube or huge file downloads
    – if you’re out of metro area you’re dead

    Conclusion: if you want something fast for downloads get a DSL line account (like PLDT or Globe). If you want fast wifi and good coverage get Smart Bro’s USB modem (thought I know it’s only prepaid). I _have_ used Globe Tattoo for only a few hours and found it fast, but saw a lot of bad reviews online. But if you want a cheap “I always want to be online for facebook, YM and email” account that you can put in your smartphone and will be using in Metro Manila then Sun fits the bill.

    4. Click Yes when you receive the following message:

    sun broadband is a crap! first month ok yung service. sobrang mabilis syempre para di ka agad madissapoint, then another month came at ayun, palaging 0.00 kbps. at this moment walang signal as in green light di sya maka connect. i already called sun broadband and inconsistent yung sinasabi nila, yung isang csr sabi walang problema sa kanila, then i called again coz the first csr advised me to uninstall first the unit, then i-try ko daw ulit pagtawag ko syempre iba na yung csr sabi naman may problem. anu ba talaga..di naman pwedeng magbayad ng monthly pag palaging ganun yung service nila. kaya dun sa balak mag avail ng sun broadband think twice.. pag di pa rin ok signal the next 24 hrs ipapacancel ko na yung service at hindi ako magbabayad ng termination fee!
    talk to my lawyer.

  19. Avatar for joy joy says:

    if you can put your location whenever you give comments here, that would be a lot better.. im from makati kasi and im planning to buy sun broadband (649 plan). But Im still doing some research para hindi naman masayang yung pagbili ko. I was reading the reviews here kaya lang walang mga mga nagmention ng locations kaya hindi ko rin ma-assess..

    -thanks!

    Hi to all 3G wifi users:

    I was looking for some info in the net regarding the set-up of the USB modem(Globe Visibility) so can accomodate all 3 networks, Globe ,Smart, Suncellular by just changing the SIM pack(Pre-paid).

    Below summarizes my Testing, right now its working fine for all 3 networks:

    USB modem: ZTE MF626
    Default: Globe Visibility package
    status: Locked to Globe

    Inorder to Unlock ZTE MF626 to all networks you must download the software update on this website:

    http://web.portal.globe.com.ph/visibility/MF626UpdateTool_GLOBE_PHV1.2.exe

    its a globe file update so no need to worry about incompatibility i tried it and it works fine, just need atleast 25 mins to do the upgrade:

    Steps:
    1. Insert USB modem then wait for the modem to be detected, it will launch the Globe Visibility software, just exit the software.
    2. Launch the exe file then press Update:
    3. wait until update finishes, beware not to remove usb while in process, it may corrupt your USB modem.

    Now you need to create each profile for each Network:

    For Smart:

    Dial Number: *99#
    APN: internet or smartbro ( internet is faster )

    For Globe:

    Dial Number: *99***1#
    APN: http.globe.com.ph

    For SunCellular:

    Dial Number: *99#
    APN: minternet
