PLDT DSL 256kbps versus MERIDIAN (Smart) 288kbps

[kulitog]

---

ok man ang smart wi-fi kung duol ka sa cellsites kai pabor kaayo.ma kuha gyud nimo ang promising bandwidth nila pero kung layo ka sa cellsites or in between ka sa duha ka cellsites problema kaayo...ang naka advantage pud ani di naka kinahanglan og telphone line. maayo ra ning smart wifi kung ang inyong lugar wala telephone lines advantage kaayo pero kung naa mag DSL lines nalang... pero sa pagka karon dili pa gyud stable ang individual dsl ako gyud ni na compare kaysa mga corporate na mga dsl lines.

meridian ko sauna and all i have to say daghan kaayo problem dili jud ka ma.satisfied bulok kaayo ang system og service nila.. wala pa gyud klaro ang ilang billing kai wala jud ma.abot na bill.. niya dili stable ang connection dili pang gaming then kung magrain like walai internet hehe.. then cge ka disconnect then kung manawag ka sa ilang toll free like ipasa2x lang ka nila kung nawag ka cebu like patawagon ka sa manila.... sauna gud kai mao mangud na cya ang pinaka barato na dsl mao na na tempted ko mo.use pero karon nice to say na naa na globelines and pldt mydsl na ni compete sa kana na package which is way better. if you really want to know bout which is the best and the worst read the other thread pertaining to the different dsl and you'll notice ang meridian or so called smart wi-fi now ang pinaka daghan na negative feedback

Meridian user ko before just want to tell you all out there if you were to decide between meridian or smart wi-fi so called this days is a big no no... reasons to switch when i was a meridian users

1. unstable connections (not for gaming)
2. frequent disconnections (disconnections or out of coverage they say could last a week)
3. when u call their toll service they will say guba daw ang site paghulat lang (lol)
4. their radio device seems to be buggy like when i was in merdian like i had 3 different radios in a range of 2 and a half months lang (gubaon jud kaayo)
5. when it rains like mashinay pa ang imong connection sa dial up
6. when u call their office ang mga service personnel taka lang og 2bag mga dili kahibaw og pc like nag cost cutting tingali na cla
7. walai bill maabot.. like ad2 ka sa bank then u wont have any confirmation if na receive ba nila ang payment mao na i.keep nalang nimo and reciept.
8. like if you have to pc ma.pugos ka og palit og router may nalang wala ko nadayon og palit og router kai karon pldt mydsl ko lan 2 lan ra murag ra nagdial up ko sauna na ma.share nako ang internet sa other computer nako
9. When globelines 384kbps for 997.50 and pldt mydsl 999 a month started competing like whats the reason to stay with meridian? to sum it up other people say or claim they have good connection but why risk it and bind to a 1 yr. contract when you have a better chance to choose globelines or mydsl... like think about it.. as of now I dont see internet cafe's using smart wi-fi its either globe or pldt and the last time that i know that use smart wi-fi in an internet cafe already change to pldlt mydsl...

well kung naa ka existing fone line, go for their DSL packages, for us who don't want to pay for an additional fone line, its another choice, so far ok man kaayo ang meridian sa ako

pareho ra man ang PLDT ug Meridian. Kay ang Contractor ng Smart (PLDT) kay ang Meridian basta regarding sa ilang Wifi Internet Connection.

I'm using their 788 plan and it's still running smoothly.

by the way ang dili lang nako ganahan sa ila ay ang services and technical support. hinay ang serbisyo nila.
ipabalhin unta nako ang ako linya kay nibalhin me ug balay, need pa kuno ko mubayad ug another 2,000 pesos.
or i disconnect nalang kuno pero mubayad pa ko ug 1 year, kay subscription man nako for the remaining year.
although wala nadayon sa duha.

open forum ni mga bro. ayaw mo lalis.
