SMART WiFi is now SMART Bro
Smart launches new brand for its wireless broadband service

More promotional bundles, improved service quality and enhanced customer experience

[April 21, 2006/ MANILA] - Leading wireless services provider Smart Communications Inc. (SMART) today unveiled 'Smart Bro', the new brand for its wireless broadband offering, marking a move from its earlier Smart WiFi brand.

Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company (PLDT) will also be reselling Smart Bro in place of myDSL-W, its similar wireless broadband service brand.

Starting April 23, customers who avail of the Smart Bro service will enjoy new promotional bundles. Sales and customer service processes are also being upgraded to improve the customer experience.

The launch of Smart Bro underscores the strategy of the PLDT group to provide its customers with the widest range of broadband connectivity solutions and establish its leadership in the broadband market nationwide.

"We've combined the latest wireless broadband technology with the extensive network infrastructure of PLDT and SMART," said Napoleon L. Nazareno, president and CEO for PLDT and Smart.

"Together with our fixed broadband offerings through PLDT's DSL service and our mobile broadband service with Smart 3G, Smart Bro will hasten the time when broadband becomes a basic communications service." he added.

Since it was introduced nationwide in September last year, wireless broadband has provided a welcome boost for Internet usage in the Philippines where Internet penetration is only 5.3%. "The uptake in the service is most apparent in rural areas where information and communications technology infrastructure has been lacking," Nazareno observed.

Numbering over 25,000 by year-end 2005, wireless broadband subscribers accounted for 22% of the total number of broadband subscribers of PLDT and Smart. Broadband capacity and subscribers have been doubling every year since 2002 and by year-end 2005, the number of broadband users of the PLDT Group more than doubled to 114,000 from 48,000 as of end-year 2004.

To further raise service quality levels, Smart is currently improving network facilities by deploying advanced radio base stations and terminal equipment and installing upgraded routers. It is also expanding the wireless broadband network's core transmission backbone capacity up to 10 Gbps and its regional backbone capacity to 1 Gbps. International transmission capacity has also been increased significantly to further improve access to servers overseas.

Smart is also improving the customer service systems and processes that handle queries regarding the wireless broadband service. The number of call center seats dedicated to broadband customers has been increased to 370.

Smart has been able to rapidly rollout the service even in far-flung areas because it integrated many portions of the wireless broadband network with its existing GSM cellular network.

Smart Bro is a "fixed wireless solution" to provide broadband Internet access. It rides on the nationwide cellular network of Smart to wirelessly deliver broadband Internet service to a subscriber's personal computer, eliminating the need for a physical cable or phone line.

The "wireless" connection is established from a wireless broadband radio base station at the nearest Smart cellsite to the subscriber's home via a Smart Bro antenna. Cables connect the antenna to the subscriber's PC.

To enjoy the strongest possible high speed Internet connection, the subscriber's antenna must have a clear "line-of-sight" alignment and be within a 1.5 km. radius from a Smart cellsite.

"The service brings broadband Internet to places that in the past were beyond the reach of the World Wide Web. Hopefully, broadband will open up new opportunities for businesses, education, and e-government all over the country." Nazareno said.

Initially, Smart Bro is available on one package at PhP999.00 monthly, VAT inclusive.

Subscribers will need a PC with Pentium II or higher, 128 MB RAM or higher (preferable 256 MB RAM), Ethernet/ LAN Card, at least 10GB of hard disk space and operating system of Windows 98, 2000, XP, Linux or McIntosh OS.

The Smart Bro service will be available for application at any Smart Wireless Center or PLDT Business Office nationwide, or through any accredited Smart or PLDT Sales agents. Sales activation and after-sales service customer support numbers for SMART Bro remains at *1888 from Smart cellphones, (02) 672 -7277, and PLDT toll-free 1-800-10-772-7277.
