Globe Telecom 12mbps Upload Speed

     I'm a person who wants fast internet. Surfing the web, watching videos, checking SNS are my daily habit. The 5mbps LTE home connection is so insufficient for me and my family, because, like me, they're using high-bandwidth sites. My brother have been downloading movies and updating PS4 games. Globe Telecom capping (not only Globe) of  50gb per month is so shit. When you consume the 50gb, you will be throttled to 30% of 5mbps which is 1.5 and you will wait next month to refresh the speed.

     At our house in Cavite, we're subscribed at 3mbps Globe DSL. (5mbps LTE is at our house in Caloocan.) I am worried because I'm going there to stay for a week. I'm thinking about how slow the data speed, for 30% of 3mbps is. 9 or 1mbps, and I'm sure that we've reached the 60gb data limit. (60gb for 3mbps DSL and 50gb for 5mbps LTE) if we will be throttled to 1mbps speed, It is so slow because it's shared connection for my family there.

     May 16, 2016.
     When I arrived at our house in Belvedere Town, Tanza, Cavite, the first thing I did was to check the internet speed. I open the speedtest application on my smartphone, and test the connection.


I was so shock because this was the result. I repeated the test, and the result was just the same. I have been happy yet shocked. I think that it was just a joke. (Seriously) I didn't expect something like that (speed) on Globe Telecom. 
12.69 upload speed is so good, for you can watch full HD movies, download games quickly and more. I can watch movies on chromecast too, 

 I had to visit Globe website to check if they changed their plan. But I didn't see any changes on it. I asked my cousin why did the Internet become fast, he told me that the Globe called and asked if we want to upgrade our plan and add P150 on the monthly bill. 

I searched Globe Telecom on Google and went to the news section, but I didn't see news about it. 

What about the Upload Speed?


Upload speed it relatively slow. It's 66mbps. Upload speed is the amount of data you can send. It's important when you're playing online games or uploading pictures. I repeated the test again and again, but the results have been just the same. 


Today. I will test the internet connection again.


The download speed is just the same and the upload remains slow.


I don't know why Globe Telecom becomes fast. I don't know any other details (like its data cap), for my cousin didn't explain to me anything for he's a newbie for Internet thing. 

Hoping for the start of the Philippine Strong Internet connection, with the new administration.
