Globe, Smart, and Sun Prepaid Wireless Broadband

Posted on July 13, 2009 under Gadgets

If you wish to get connected anytime, anywhere around the Philippines, you might be thinking of getting a portable and accessible Internet access through the plug-in broadband wireless services from Globe Telecom, Smart Communications, or Sun Cellular. These are mobile telcos which offers broadband wireless connection through a USB modem. They come in prepaid and postpaid plans. And, they all says that they can offer you speed up to 2 Mbps.

The connection really depends on the type of signal available in your area whether you have a HSDPA, 3G, EDGE, GPRS, or Dial-up signals. So, ask the customer support if the signal in your area is stable and strong.

For prepaid Plan, you can choose from the following:

Globe Broadband: Php 1,895 per (VAT inclusive) Prepaid Kit, surf at on Php5 for 15 minutes or Php20 for 1 hour.
Smart Bro: Php 1,995 with Php100 free load for the kit, surf at on Php5 for 15 minutes or Php20 for 1 hour.
Sun Cellular Broadband: Php 1,895 per (VAT inclusive) Prepaid Kit, surf at on Php6.25 for 30 minutes or Php13 for 1 hour.Note: Prices of these kits varies from time to time in the market. Please contact respective providers for latest pricing.

Prepaid plan works like your regular phone with SIM card and load on it. So, you can reload your prepaid kit like you’re loading your phone. The locked-in SIM card has a mobile number, so you can also use the load and text using the USB connection panel.

By the way, I got my own prepaid globe broadband kit last year.

Actually, Smartbro prepaid doesn’t charge Php5/15minutes of internet usage, instead they’ll be charging you P10 for it. They said its already included in their 30-minute coverage. Been using smartbro for more than a year now. They never told me anything about it when I purchased it last year. (price is still P4000+ then)

I already have a globe tattoo and it works well on our area (Valenzuela) most of the time but during 7m-2am, it can get, really, really, really slow. As in, you would waste 20 pesos without being able to view anything. I just recently switched to sun prepaid and I can feel the difference here in Valenzuela even at peak usage but when I go to Laguna and some other places, it can get really slow so I’m keeping both sims for wherever area I’m at. You don’t need two USB modems, you just have to have the modem unlocked for it to accomodate different sims.

My ipod touch 1G is our most important iPod, Pda and more, plus has been since I received it. It continues to function the most current iPod system software program, and any app I will want it to operate. I’m using it to leave this comment right now. I would point out it really is a much more than basically an “excellent hobbyist system” — it’s an perfect iPod
