SM management limits free WiFi access

Whenever, I’m at an SM Mall, I immediately connect to their free Wi-Fi service to keep my feeds updated all throughout my stay. But just recently when I was at the SM Mall of Asia, I noticed that the Wi-Fi connection on my Nexus 4 was automatically disconnected.

That’s when I saw a notification on my browser stating that I have reached the maximum free WiFi access for the day. After that, I tried connecting on my Nexus 7 – and only just then that I spotted the time limit – 1 hour.

This may come as a bad news to some mall goers, particularly those who just hang out at the mall to leech on the mall’s free internet access. On the other hand, this will benefit the majority of the people as it will result to faster internet connection.

    Lately sm malls totally disabled their free wifi. You will never find free wifi anymore from sm servers.

    Aye, that’s right they going to malls just to get free high-speed internet connection and download some files, plus the place is air conditioned…. And of course the mall owner and it’s administrators certainly know that and they also know that hundreds of people were connected to their WIFI and it will be slow if those will hang out eating big data in every second.
    So they limit it’s usage to avoid that kind of abuse and serve people a better faster internet and it’s very right……

    To the management: Your internet access connection is sooo slow. Given the limited time to your shoppers, I suggest that you check your wifi internet once in a while. For the record, ever since you limited the time here in SM Bacoor, it takes 10 mins to connect to social networking sites.
