Mmmyeah pasting it again won't change the fact that this service has a laughable bandwidth cap.
Hi guys, I need your help. I plan on taking my laptop with me to the mountains in Cebu during my vacation. What is the best wireless internet access I should use and how much is it? Does my wireless adapter at home work and I'll just buy a plan? I'm a computer and technology nitwit and I only know the basics, so please help!!
^ edi itanong mo sa kakilala mong taga roon kung anong cellphone provider ang may pinaka malakas na signal sa area and then avail their prepaid service.
Upgrade your broadband to 4G
…without upgrading the price
wi-tribe 4G Broadband
it’s broadband that gives you consistent wired speeds without the wires!
It’s is PLUG & PLAY!
Just take the wi-tribe 4G broadband modem (called wi-tribe BOOM) out of the box, connect it to a power outlet, connect it to your computer using the ethernet cable, and you’re set!
It’s PORTABLE!
Unlike broadbands wired to your antennas, you can take it with you to work, the coffee-shop, or your hang-out.
It’s AFFORDABLE!
All these for only P998.00 monthly.
It’s a total upgrade to a great 4G broadband experience at a price that’s comparable to other broadbands.

Thanks, I don't think WiTribe services Cebu. Has anybody tried Globe Broadband tattoo? I'm also looking at Smart wireless broadband.
Masyadong nagpapayaman ang mga Internet Service Provider COmpanies dito sa Pilipinas.
Samantalang sa ibang bansa, ang binabayad nating 1mbps, 1295pesos, sa ibang bansa nasa 3mbps na.
Masyado talagang nagpapayaman ang mga ISPs.
And about the 4th Generation (4G), ano ba naman tong offer ng wi-tribe, naturingang 4G na ang systems nila pero 1 mbps pa rin? Dapat nga nasa 3-5mbps na offer nila. Kasi ang 3.5G is capable of up to 2mbps speed, pero offer ng mga sun/globe/smart, in reality, 384kbps-1mbps lang lagi nagbibigay ng alloted speeds.
Dapat nga, sa Pilipinas 2010 na ngayon, minimum connection speed na iooffer ng bawat ISPs ay 1mbps, phase out na dapat ang 384 at 512kbps.
Masyado lang talaga nagpapakayaman ang mga ISPs dito.
Sa totoo lang, naguupgrade na masyado ang bandwidth ng mga websites. Like Youtube, dati SD lang ang video nila, ngayon HD na. Kaya kahit 1mbps ang speed mo, magla-lag pa rin ang HD video ng youtube.
Yung friend ko sa Japan. Well 5 mbps lang naman ang speed niya don sa price na 1500 a month in peso.

http://www.wi-tribe.ph/fair-usage-policy/
Fair Usage Policy
Why have one?
Well it’s designed to make sure your broadband service is fast and reliable whenever you use it. This policy works hand-in-hand with the Fair Usage Threshold of your rate plan. Some customers use file sharing software and download large files like music and videos. This uses up lots of network capacity leaving less available for you. If they’re doing this at peak times, it could mean that the speed of your broadband connection will be affected.
Am I likely to be affected by the Fair Use Policy?
If you don’t use file sharing software or download large files frequently from the Internet it’s unlikely you’ll ever be affected by this policy. If you do, all we ask is that you do so considerately, perhaps by downloading during off-peak hours of 1am to 7am. Don’t forget that media streaming, including the streaming of internet radio contributes to your use of bandwidth and may, if left permanently on, cause you to be in breach of this policy.
What will happen if my use is very high?
Once you have consumed your Fair Usage Threshold, we may reduce the transmission speed of your broadband connection. If you use up your Fair Usage Threshold before the month is over, your broadband connection will NOT be cut off. However, we may adjust your surfing speed to below 512 Kbps. You will enjoy your Fair Usage Threshold again at speeds of up to 1Mbps on the following month.
For frequent excessive high usage, we may suspend your service and/or possibly close your account. We don’t want to do that, and with your support and goodwill we’ll work with you to see if we can avoid this happening
^^
laughable!
you have to do better than that to convince people that 4G with up to 1mpbs only and 6Gb download cap is better than 3G/3.5G with up to 2mbps unlimited.![]()
kindly tell san miguel to just go back to making hotdogs, brewing beer and making ice cream.
Effective April 18, 2010 wi-tribe will be offering its 2nd Move-Up Plan! Details and more info. to follow!![]()
May 4G pa silang nalalaman e 1Mbps lang pala ang speed at may CAP pa! Sa kanila na lang yang 4G nila! I'll stick to DSL line!
