PLDT myDSL Versus Smart Broadband

19 July 2009

When I moved to my place here in Pasay last December of 2007, the fastest way for me to have an internet connection is thru Smart Bro. I applied for an acount in SM Mall of Asia and after 24 hours, guys from Smart came and installed it. It was really quick.

For more than a year, I have been using smart bro and experienced hours of downtime or almost days of no connection at all so I decided to go for a PLDT DSL connection. It took me nearly 2 months before it was installed. I have to call PLDT several times to follow-up.

Now I have them both and I am not thinking of cutting any as I am reserving each in case one has no connectivity. In terms of speed, seems like Smart Bro is way behind PLDT myDSL, here’s a speedtest I took moments ago.

    Being honest, I’ve had slower speeds using mobile internet although I cant say I’ve experienced blackouts for more than a few hours.

    It is very annoying when the coverage advertised is nothing like you get when you purchase.
