Speed Test of Globe Broadband, Smart Bro, Smart 3G and PLDT Mydsl

POSTED BY noemi on Dec 13 under VoIP Philippines Provider, VoIP Providers with 11,476 views

Most of you have probably read my Review of Globelines Broadband, Smart Bro and PLDT Mydsl. This time I am presenting the speedtest of my ISPs. Tests were taken at 9:30 AM on December 13. Usually mornings have slower connections, hence I tested it at this time. I used speedtest.net. Remember, I am a paying customer based in Pasig City, close to Quezon city and Marikina to have an idea of my location.

Globelines Broadband
Globelines Broadband
Upload: 980 kbps
Download: 355 kbps
Promised speed: 1 MBps at 98%

Smart 3G (connecting my Nokia e51 to my macbook)
smart 3g
Upload: 723 kbps
Download: 107 kbps
Promised speed: No data

Smart Bro (desktop computer)
Smart bro

Upload: 305 kbps
Download: 235 kbps
Promised speed: 256kbps reaches 100% (They might have also upgraded to 512 kbps)

PLDT Mydsl
PLDT mydsl

Upload: 436 kbps
Download:300 kbps
Promised speed:768 kbps reaches only 56%

The winner is still Globe Broadband followed by Smart Bro and Smart 3G. The loser is PLDT Mydsl.

I should already report PLDT myds for disconnecting my internet service every 15 minutes. Since installation in February, intermittent connection is the only regular thing they have given me.

    Couple of days ago i got the globelines 3mb internet only installed here in bacolod, getting 300kb download and 110kb upload so not anywhere near the speed i am supposed to get. Had to prepay a year in advance since i am a foreigner on a tourist visa…Supposed to be fixed in a week or two according to globelines so guess i have to wait and see.

    Smartbro is annoying. My connection goes on and off. I probably would have to change provider. AsAP. thanks.

    gusto ko talaga Globelines broadband… sobrang bilis 948kbps download niya at di pa tumitigil connection!! unlike pldt mydsl… hay sobrang daming problem… parating tumitigil connection!

    Among the internet service providers, PLDT is the best…i have 1mbps promised speed and my download is 850-950kbps sometimes it goes over 1mpbs…
    I’ts more reliable and fast compared to any other providers here in the phils…trust me i’ve tried everything…. If u will test ur speed, don’t open any website yet just the speed test website…and u will know ur real download speed….

  13. robert April 23, 2009 06:14 am

    This person on top who gave comments about the speeds is not telli9ng the truth….smart broadbands are not reliable…goes on and off…globe is even better than smart but still it goes on and off and just recently, they had no service for about a week they had connection problems….and of course, nothing beats PLDT My dsl…even if I have homenetworking at home, still i have a very good connection. I love downloading movies from utorrent,mininova etc and it’s very good it only takes an hour to download dvd quality movie…unlike smart and globe, it took me 2days to download a movie…hahahaha these providers have to do something…LOL

    i am a pldt mydsl subscriber and i can say that their service is very unreliable. they can’t fix the problem with my internet. they said it was the wiring — we rewired it and still the same poor internet connection. our internet are always on and off and the worst is, it will be off for half a day. i have decided to switch to a new provider because of their poor service.

  16. shitty globe wireless June 15, 2009 10:55 am

    shit talaga ang globe wireless connection… nung una okay okay pa. pero after a month kalbaryo na. i’m getting 2-4 KBps for download… TAMA yang nakita nyo 2-4 SHIT!!!!!!!!! SKY NALANG SANA

  17. wa la lang June 26, 2009 10:25 am

    stupid comparison. kasi isang server lang ginamit sa test. globebroadband is ok kung bayantel ang test server. smartbro is ok kung pldt ang test server…

    sa ping pa lang kita na lag connection nyan.
