#pldt slow internet

PLDT has issued a statement saying that its subscribers may experience slow or no internet connection due to cut cables. According to ABS-CBN News, PLDT said in a statement on Thursday that fiber optic transmission cables were cut by "civil works of a third party in Alabang," causing internet connection problems in some areas of Las Piñas, Muntinlupa, Parañaque, and Laguna. Recognizing this growing reality, PLDT Home continues to go beyond delivering reliable and fast internet by championing responsible digital citizenship through Online Alerto, its online safety advocacy that empowers Filipinos to navigate the digital world more safely and responsibly.

PLDT and Google’s Taara project have brought fiber-like internet to Barangay Subay in Talim Island, Rizal without laying a single underwater cable.
