La Comisión Nacional de Telecomunicaciones (NTC) planea establecer una velocidad mínima de 256 kilobits por segundo (kbps) para la banda ancha móvil. La velocidad mínima es la misma que la de los servicios de banda ancha fija como DSL, fibra y cable.

La definición de banda ancha móvil según la NTC es "cualquier dispositivo que tenga la capacidad de acceder a redes móviles y cuyo diseño inherente le permita ser portátil, sin estar diseñado inherentemente para ubicarse de forma permanente o semipermanente". Esto incluye bolsillos Wi-Fi, dongles USB y teléfonos inteligentes y tabletas con conexión de datos.

Con el mínimo establecido en 256 kbps, los servicios GPRS ya no se consideran un servicio de banda ancha móvil, ya que su velocidad solo puede alcanzar hasta 114 kbps. La NTC realizará pruebas de velocidad de Internet de los ISP locales para banda ancha móvil antes de las elecciones nacionales de mayo de 2016.

Con la creciente adopción de 4G LTE con dispositivos más económicos compatibles con LTE, ¿qué podemos hacer hoy en día con 256 kbps?

“GOOD JOB NTC”… ???

THEY HAVE NOT DONE THEIR JOBS IN DECADES… WHAT IS SO GOOD IN THAT?

FOR SO LONG, MANY INTERNET SUBSCRIBERS HAVE ALREADY BEEN SCAMMED BY THE ISP SCAM BUGS… WHAT IS SO GOOD IN THAT?

FOR THE LONGEST TIME, THESE USELESS ISPs HAVE TURNED THE BLIND EYE & THE DEAF EAR ON THE SUBSCRIBERS’ COMPLAINTS… WHAT IS SO GOOD IN THAT?

THE SUBSCRIBERS’ PAYMENTS HAVE BEEN STOLEN & LIED TO BY THESE SCUM BUG ISPs WHOSE GOOD SERVICE WERE ALL JUST PROMISES… WHAT IS SO GOOD IN THAT?

IT IS ONLY NOW THAT NTC IS DOING THEIR JOBS DUE THE 2016 NATIONAL ELECTIONS JUST TO PROTECT THE IMAGE OF THEIR PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE MAR ROXAS FROM THE VIOLENT PUBLIC CLAMOR… WHAT IS SO GOOD IN THAT?

THIS REPORT IS PURE PATRONAGE OF THE DEVIL NTC!!!

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING SO GOOD IN THAT… IS THERE?!?!?!

PNOY: “EH D WOW!!!”

BIKTIMA KAMI LAHAT NG SUN CELLULAR · 10 years ago

OMG!!!

AS WE ALL INTERNET SUBSCRIBERS KNOW & UNDERSTAND, BOTH THE NTC & THE DTI ARE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES “OF THE FILIPINO PEOPLE, BY THE FILIPINO PEOPLE & FOR THE FILIPINO PEOPLE”, BUT THE CURRENT REALITY OF THINGS IS THAT BOTH ARE NO WHERE SERVING THE INTERESTS OF THE FILIPINO MASSES.

THEY ARE BOTH WORTHLESS GOVERNMENT AGENCIES.

THEY WILL NEVER BE PART OF THE SOLUTION, THEY ARE BOTH SIMPLY COMPLICATIONS TO THE PROBLEM.

SO MR.JOHN NIEVES… WHY DO WE HAVE TO EVER BOTHER FILING A FORMAL COMPLAINT TO ANY OF THEM?

OMG!!!

FOR US PINOYS, THIS INFORMATION IS REALLY DEPRESSING…

FOR THE PH, THIS IS AN UNFORTUNATE CAUSE FOR INTERNATIONAL SHAME!!!

WHAT OUR LOCAL TELCOS HAVE BEEN BRAGGING ABOUT IN THEIR ADS TO BE “THE LEADER IN DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY” ARE ALL LIES & DECEPTIONS… PURE GIMMICKRY!!!

GUYS PLEASE DO REALIZE THAT LOCALLY WHAT WE ARE PAYING BIG FOR WITH OUR HARD EARNED MONEY IS ACTUALLY CONSIDERED JUST GARBAGE INTERNET SERVICE IN MOST OTHER COUNTRIES.

IS THIS THE WAY THAT THE LOCAL TELCOS ARE DOING THEIR BUSINESS, ALL THROUGH CHEATING & FALSEHOOD… OMG!!!

THE LOCAL TELCOS SHOULD ALL WAKE UP WITH THE GREATEST OF GUILT FOR THEM TO APOLOGIZE TO THE FILIPINO PUBLIC & COMMIT TO THE IMMEDIATE REFORMATION.

HEY… NTC & DTI, YOU ARE BOTH TO DO THE JOB THAT WE ARE PAYING YOU FOR. OUR LOCAL TELCOS ARE THE WORST IN THE WORLD!!!

THEY ARE ALL USELESS, LOOK FOR NEW ONES!!!

MR.PRESIDENT PNOY & MR.MAR ROXAS TRAVERSE YOUR “TUWID NA DAAN” & RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY BEFORE WE ALL TURN TO THE OPPOSITION FOR THE NEEDED SOLUTIONS… ARE YOU BOTH HEARING US??? YOU BOTH BETTER BE…

Well at least powersurf users of Globe should somewhat benefit from this, as their mobile broadband speed is reduced once they reach 800MB.

dong · 10 years ago

onley in the phelepens. fuck the government

loadex · 10 years ago

Nakow.. minimum 256kbps ang speed.. pero 1Gbps sa bilis ang under the table ng PLDT at Globe sa mga NTC peeps

pokefan · 10 years ago

Hahaha. As usual, muntimang lang ang gobyerno. HAHAHA. Why not set it top a higher speed? Simple, magkakakuntsaba kayo ng mga businessman. Pag pinataas ang minimum speed mapipilitan ang mga ISP na magdagdag ng bandwidth which would cost them. hahah. Wag kami.

dong · 10 years ago

ang galing talaga ng ntc parang si leila delema lang hahaha

anonymous · 10 years ago

tha speed will be expensive to not only for the telco/s…surely will reflect its consumers

Cindy · 10 years ago

5 years ago, this would have been good. But today, minimun mobile speed should be at least 512kbps while DSL must have a minimum speed of 1mbps.

Anonymous · 10 years ago

Agreed!

deveerei · 10 years ago

That’s just 32kBps when downloading. 1mbps (125kBps) should be the minimum acceptable speed for starters, but ideally we need 3-5mbps (375-625kBps) of download speeds for it to be called decent.
