Wireless Globelines Broadband @ 1 Mb/s

As promised, I will be posting some comments and speed test for my newly installed Wireless Globelines Broadband by Innove and Globe Telecom, as posted here.

To start with, just this morning a contractor from Globe Telecom came in to our house bringing with him the ZTE FM 600 Wireless Access Terminal or the so called modem. As per suggested by the testing team before, that it should be installed with the so called HSDPA (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access) receiver or the outdoor antenna like with Smart Broadband but this time it is not in a form or rectangular device but it’s a square coated with a high quality cover to prevent over voltage whenever thunderstorm occurs.

As soon as it was installed properly, initial tests coming from speedtest wasn’t that impressive, please see the testing image below,

The above speed was just like my Smart Broadband connection which is very frustrating. But later on, a consistent speed of 1+ Mb/s occured, and also streaming is now faster than before and downloads went up to 189 kb/s, please see speed test images below,

Above speed was very impressive on today’s standard ISP speed or home users in the Philippines. Not bad, but eventually this is just the first day of getting connected with Globelines, I might also post some notes if there’s something going on with their speed.

As of this moment, I am enjoying my ISP speed and will be downloading a lot of files maybe tonight and on the other days.
