globe pldt ip peering

Globe and PLDT has made yet another huge announcement last Thursday when they both agreed on a bilateral domestic IP peering. If you play one of those online gaming that’s either exclusively hosted on Globe and PLDT, your response time (latency) will significantly improve. You can check this by loading SpeedTest.net in your browser and manually selecting the server of both Globe and PLDT and check if the Ping results are almost similar between the two. There are not a lot of popular websites that are hosted domestically but those that are hosted by local data centers of PLDT and Globe would experience better load times. To make things easier, we’ve put together a comprehensive comparison of the postpaid fiber internet plans offered by the major telco companies in the Philippines — namely PLDT, Globe, Sky, and Converge. For example, PLDT’s Fiber Unli Plan 2099 has a speed boost of 700 Mbps, which is faster than Globe’s GFiber Plan 1999 or Converge’s FiberX 2000 peso plan — both of which are capped at 500 Mbps. Notably, the streaming options vary by telco company: Netflix is offered by both PLDT and Converge, while Disney+ is solely available through Globe. Additionally, Globe’s the only telco company that offers up to 1.5 Gbps through GFiber Plan 7499 which significantly costs less in contrast to PLDT’s Fiber Unli Plan 9499.
