Square Root Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Smart BROken! The 1st few months, the connection was quite satisfying, an average of 40kb/sec when downloading (Damn it they locked the canopy configuration site). Now connection is really very slow. I just get an average of 10kb/sec when dowloading. I thought it was my pc but I just recently reformatted it still the same result (I reformat my pc 2x a year). I searched the internet and forums for any configuration and tweaks but to no avail. I can't stand the redundant reasons of their technical support that they do not have problems on their end. I also work in the IT field and pretty much understand some basic network/IE troubleshooting, though I may not know everything but still I know the basics. I just avoid calling their technical support because IT WILL JUST RUIN MY DAY!. Good thing that PLDT is now offering their MYDSL in our area and will surely switch over to it (I hope it will not be the same s@%t) Quote Link to comment

xda3005 Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 Smart Bro = kakatakot kapag malakas hangin at ulan, sigurado wala naman akong access. mas madalas mabagal pa. Quote Link to comment
sleep_heavy Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 The issue with broadBand is very controversial... the application of services, signal strength signal and speed is inconsistent and very dicey in nature... that is why some people say that pay masama ang weather, the broadBand connection gets really awful... sometimes during storms the connection gets really bad.

songster Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 If you use Outlook or resident program based email DO NOT sign up with SMARTBro (dapat BOBOBro). You wil be weeks with interupted service. Their servicersonel will not let you talk with any one in the tech department. They are NOT truthful or know waht is happening. Hard to believe the parent company can win awards. Hard to believe they stay in business. Quote Link to comment

discountorder Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Is it ok to subscribe to smart bro broadband internet?Can you help me decide which to choose Globe Broadband or Smart Broadbad Quote Link to comment
jjb Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 ^ if you can avoid getting Smart or Globe don't get it, best pa din if your connected via a cable - zpdee, pldtdsl, etc. Pareho lang naman ata bayad eh. If you have to get either, ask sa neighbors niyo which has the better service, depende sa area yan eh Quote Link to comment

If you have to get either, ask sa neighbors niyo which has the better service, depende sa area yan eh nothing really beats the more stable wired services. you cant compare it. sa sobrang dami ng mga illegal na frequency dyan best effort talaga ang wireless. but visibility is still ok according to friends of mine. cheers!

songster Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Is it ok to subscribe to smart bro broadband internet?Can you help me decide which to choose Globe Broadband or Smart Broadbad Al I can say is expect unlimited frustration and poor service with SmartBro. And download speeds approach dialup. Quote Link to comment

If you have to get either, ask sa neighbors niyo which has the better service, depende sa area yan eh agree. wireless signals are affected by certain factors (like lightning, etc.) aside from the physical factors (cellsites, receivers, etc.) so you will end up frustrated half the time.

señor_bugoy Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 kups ng smart... i have a smart gold line plan 1800, may 2 year tie up. after a year, i upgraded the plan to 2500... ngayon, 6 months nalang, i was trying to downgrade it back to plan 1800 (ung original plan ko), pero hindi na daw pwede.... you can upgrade your plan but not downgrade it back to the original... :thumbsdownsmiley: Quote Link to comment
monsignor28 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Mas maraming pages ata ang Globe complaint thread kumpara sa Smart Ibig sabihin ba nun mas maraming complaint sa Globe kesa Smart? Quote Link to comment
kenshinn Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 I got a feeling that Smart Bro connection is getting slower, Is it because there's too many subscribers now than before? And there tech. support really suck if they can't fix it by their TSR on phone they will make you wait for 24 hours to schedule their visit at your place and it will take as long as 3 days for them to come :grr: Quote Link to comment
