yhagbols Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 mahina na ang globe ngayon, sa lugar namin mas malakas pa 3g signal ng sun samantalang papatay patay ang 3g signal ng globe pagdating naman sa mga charges talo na nito ang smart pagdating sa mga charges at pagubos ng load mo. kung prepaid ka kahit wala kang tinitxt o tinatawagan nauubos ang load mo balak kunang gawing for tertiary use ang globe sim ko tama na ang pa elite effect kung pasama ng pasama ang serbisyo nito Quote Link to comment
pogi1119 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Is Globe DSL (Innove) throttling down its Peer-to-Peer (P2P) connections? This is with regard to torrents, Limewire, E-mule downloading. As of 10am, May 15, 2009, from my normal torrent downloading rate of 130-150kbps, my rate when down to 30-35 kbps. However, browsing and other downloading remained at normal rate. And just to be sure it was not my torrent settings, I used limewire and emule simultaneously. The total download rate regardless of number of files for torrent, limewire and emule never went beyond 35 KBPS. I also did the same tests on my laptop just to eliminate the possibility that my desktop was at fault, and it also yielded the same results. Until now, Globe has not advised any reason for this despite my calling their customer service numerous times and visiting their Greenbelt centre 3 times. All they metioned was that they work on this problem Monday. If nothing happens by this Monday's end, I'll post another thread regarding how lousy their support service. Anyway, has anyone else experienced this problem? Thanks Quote Link to comment

Thanks try using bitlord first I'm also an Innove (Globe Broadband) subscriber and never encounter any problem in downloading from any torrent sites encountered this problem with our PLDT MyDSL connection at our other house torrent download speed is max at 65kbps Quote Link to comment
pogi1119 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Mark, thanks for your advice. But BitLord does not seem to work fine with my PC. DOn't know why ...Anyway, my P2P connection is now back to normal. But based on darkwish77's info ... for how long ... Darkwish77, thanks for the info. And the CSRs and even Innove center staff and heads claim not to have any knowledge of my presume suspicion inquiry about capping P2P connections. Just wondering though, what's the reason for the capping? Infrastructural limitations, cost-cutting or international legal pressure about P2P sharing. Thanks yup they are, better look for other ISP if you can, I also heard sky broadband is also doing the same. http://www.tipidpc.com/viewtopic.php?tid=162031 http://pinoydsl.net/viewtopic.php?t=17997 try using bitlord first I'm also an Innove (Globe Broadband) subscriber and never encounter any problem in downloading from any torrent sites encountered this problem with our PLDT MyDSL connection at our other house torrent download speed is max at 65kbps Quote Link to comment
pogi1119 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 But before we let let our guard down, pls. check this out: http://www.yugatech.com/blog/telecoms/glob...ies-p2p-issues/ (Thanks to Yuga) Per this, I think they should publicly define what their interpretation is of "abusive users". They should not use ambiguity tactics for this just as an excuse to implement capping in the future. And just for info: the CSRs in 211, 730-1000 and 919-8888 are outsourced personnel and NOT Globe employees. You may use this to report and log problems but it is more effective to then do follow-ups at the Globe centers with Globe employees. Quote Link to comment

girlspeed Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 I'm so pissed this morning. I just want to know if I can retrieve a MMS thru the website, since it is also indicated via SMS that i can go to the www.myglobe.com.ph something to retrieve the MMS. I have not configured yet the settings of my phone, and MMS usually expires within 24 hrs. (tama nga ba?) For the meantime I just want to know if I can do it quick on the web, and if yes, I want her to guide me where will I go because I cant seem to find the MMS section on their website. Then that customer service rep keeps on explaining i need to configure my phone settings, which I'm willing to do but that procedure has to wait since I'm kinda rushing. And if that is the only least thing we can do, I won't waste my time retrieving it on the Globe website, and do the configuration instead. THEN SHE HUNG UP ON ME!!!!!!!!!!!!! i'm not asking her to do a miracle or some kind of magic. i just want her to answer my question, how could it be so hard? Goddamn. I don't know if their phone lines got screwed all at the same time, or she hung up on me, or I'm the idiot asking the stupid question! But that's the reason why techie idiots call the customer service, so they can be enlightened. Quote Link to comment

remoteworld Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 (edited) mahina na ang globe ngayon, sa lugar namin mas malakas pa 3g signal ng sun samantalang papatay patay ang 3g signal ng globe pagdating naman sa mga charges talo na nito ang smart pagdating sa mga charges at pagubos ng load mo. kung prepaid ka kahit wala kang tinitxt o tinatawagan nauubos ang load mo balak kunang gawing for tertiary use ang globe sim ko tama na ang pa elite effect kung pasama ng pasama ang serbisyo nitoif you guys just backread, i posted my complaints about globe's erratic billing and globe wireless' blind spots in many locations. yeah, even right here in quezon city. pinagtyagaan ko yan ng 1 year, i complain whenever i'm near the globe center in quezon avenue. i always raise my voice so everyone in that center hears, that certainly turned off a lot of customers. you know what, the staff there couldn't care less if they lose customers. maybe they're just there for the wages, mas gusto nga siguro nila mas konti ang clients para less ang complaints. hehehe, just my 2 cents. globe?

rongo Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 got a 2nd-hand globe visibility kit a month ago from ebay..ayos naman there are just certain days where down talaga pero download speed minsan umaabot ng 200kb/s (usually in the morning before 10-11am)..gripe ko lang kasi I can't use my own time-browsing-activated globe sim instead of the provided visibility sim ..yeah dun sa old globe sim ko na 128K nakaka-text ako sa laptop pero hindi ako maka-connect sa internet.. nung tumawag ako sa customer care sabi nila hindi raw pede ang ibang sim yung visibility lang daw..e tanong ko naman, "bakit hindi pede? e yung visibility sim nyo lumang 64 K lang na pinatungan lang ng sticker para magmukhang visibility sim..and dun sa postpaid sim ng utol ko pag pinasok sa flash stick ng globe nakakapag-internet kami?"..ang gago pinag-antay ako't irerefer daw ako sa technical..tagal naman ako naghintay pero hang-up ko na rin naiirita ako sa call hold nila.. Globe your customer care sucks big time! This also happened to me when I was using my old prepaid sim in the visibility USB. I tried to visit their business center a couple of times and found out that old sim/mobile number's internet are not automatically activated. The activation will be done in their switch and took at least a week until I can use the internet. Good thing the customer service staff at Q. Ave and Trinoma are very patient in helping me solve this problem. Quote Link to comment
pogi1119 Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Yes, but the staff there are "outsourced". Furthermore, Globe has already determined the "legality" of restricting certain bandwidth features (particularly P2P) based on one's plan package. Thus, expect a "capping" to come soon based on monthly downloading. Say, one can only download via P2P 20G per month. I think you're wrong...
