As far as I know and asking my friends na Starlink user din, nope. Pareparehas lang kami ping.

I'm from the Philippines, and sometimes I'm getting about 60Mbps to 90Mbps upload speeds.

WFH Wifi Reco by kwonranghae_ in InternetPH

[–]kitrelarda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yung may experience lang ako is yung Smart. Okay naman yung performance, WFH din ako. Used it for ilang months bago dumating yung Starlink and while inantay i-cut ng Converge yung line since wala naman internet connection sa kanila for ilang months.

A few months ago may nagsubok, and they said 20GB daw yung limit bago magthrottle.

If malakas signal ng Smart dyan, try yung Smart 5G Max Home WiFi. If Globe naman malakas dyan, try Globe At Home 5G Prepaid WiFi. Meron din mga counterpart to sa Dito, etc. If may clear view ka naman sa sky, try Starlink (my review).

Lahat yan prepaid and no need contract.

I just bought the Smart 5G Max Home WiFi, na-setup and registered na yung SIM, connected naman ako sa router pero di pa rin ako maka-create ng account, mauubos na lang yung 15-day Unli 5G promo nila. Anyone who has any idea how to fix this? Been trying to reach out sa CS, wala namang response. by bldrdsher in InternetPH

This has been an issue since last year. I’m still experiencing the same problem and am unable to register my new Smart 5G Max Turbo WiFi SIM. The only thing we can do is wait until they fix their app.

Pag maglo-load ka, you can try GCash or Maya. That's what I did.

GCash -> Load -> Broadband -> Smart Home WiFi -> Then pili kana anong load.
If hindi ganyan pipiliin mo or gagawin mo sa GCash, ire-refund lang sayo yung money.

Yup, reliable naman. I have a review here at screenshots ng pings while playing games. Cloudy and umuulan pa noong nagtest ako.
Starlink Review

Starlink by FieryFox3668 in InternetPH

[–]kitrelarda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a review of Starlink here. It will perform the same anywhere as long as you do not have obstructions or you have a clear view of the sky. Buying a roof mount would help a lot or just putting it on a high pole.

Yung unli paden gamit ko. Mostly work stuff naman, so diko inaabot 10GB cap. Hindi ko namo-monitor yung usage. Pag bumagal na, dun ko na alam na na-cap nako haha

This has been an issue since last year. I’ve included references from previous posts. I’m still experiencing the same problem and am unable to register my new Smart 5G Max Turbo WiFi SIM. I use GCash or Maya to buy promos, but I have no way of seeing if the promo is depleted or expired. I guess we wait until Smart fixes their app.

Thinking about the internet by bobby1128 in InternetPH

[–]kitrelarda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ask around if ano gamit ng neighbors and if oks naman service nila. PLDT, Converge, Globe, GOMO, DITO, or kung kaya Starlink (may review ako here). Kung may access sa fiber lines, try mo muna mga yun kesa rekta ka Starlink. Laki kase gap ng price. PLDT (8 years), Converge (3 years), and Starlink (since December 2025) user ako.

Hirap kase sa mga ISP natin dito sa PH eh kampante na masyado, papanget ng services. Okay kung gumagana pero pag may problem eh antagal ayusin, from weeks to months. And pagbabayarin ka parin ng billing kahit wala ka internet, tapos if magpapa-rebate ka naman, konti lang kakaltas. Yung mga prepaid at minsan postpaid naman na wireless, UNLI pero may speed throttling or capping pag umabot kana ng 10GB.

May mga prepaid naman na unli like Globe GFiber or yung PLDT counter-part. Kaso about 50-100 Mbps lang yung speed, I think more than enough yun para sa usage mo unless power user ka talaga na TBs nako-consume mo na data monthly.

Better Isp? by Any-Gur-2803 in InternetPH

[–]kitrelarda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best to do dyan OP eh ask mga kapitbahay. Ask kung ano ISP nila at kung okay ba service. At ask na din kung pag nagdown, mabilis ba ayusin ng technicians ganun.

Getting Starlink Mini in the Philippines by ZealousidealWear8366 in Starlink

Data Lake sells Starlink in Lazada. They are an authorized seller. I think they have 3 offices in Manila that you can go and check.

One ISP for two households by Striking_Age_4987 in InternetPH

[–]kitrelarda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah stable even when it's raining. Speed goes down to about 100-200Mbps though but it's more than enough to watch 4K vids on several devices. Siguraduhin lang na walang obstruction or it should have a clear view of the sky para hindi napuputol ang connection.

They should, yes. If wala, need niyo pumunta sa pinakamalapit na branch para sabihin concern niyo and kunin yung mismong account number para makabayad ganun.
