is weak or the antenna screw is loose. To correct this, change the
location of the modem and make sure nothing is blocking it or check

FREQUEN TLY ASKED QUES TIONS

My Co n ne ctio n /S pee d/S u bs c ription

W h at is B ro a d b an d? Is bro a d ban d diffe re nt f rom DSL?

Broadband is often called high-speed Internet, because it usually has a high


rate of Internet transmission. In general, any connection to the customer of
256 Kbit/s (0.256 Mbit/s) or more is considered broadband Internet. Often,
the term refers to Internet access via cable and DSL.

DSL or Digital Subscriber Line is not really different from Broadband as it is a


technology often used for broadband. Various forms of DSL services are
broadband in the sense that digital information is sent over one channel and
voice over another channel sharing a single pair of wires.

W h at is bro a d b an d s pee d?

Broadband speed are the upload and download speeds of your connection as
affected by various elements such as the DSL technology, line conditions
and service level implemented. This may be measured in bits per second or
bytes per second.

W h at doe s a f ast Internet co n n e ctio n mean t o me? Wh at can I


d o with it?

Fast Internet connection means you don’t have to wait a long time for a
page to load or for you to download songs, videos, journals, etc. online. If
opening your mailbox took 20 seconds to load, Globe Broadband at up to
512Kbps may allow you to load that in a little over 2 seconds! Also, dial-up
speeds of up to 56Kbps seldom support services such as video streaming
and voice over Internet protocol which is a richer way to communicate with
your friends and families wherever they may be, made possible with Globe
Broadband speeds.
W hy d o y o u s ay “ u p to” whe n y o u talk abo ut the s pee d o f my
c o n ne ctio n?

Globe Broadband does not have a guaranteed speed. This means that the
speed indicated is not the promised speed at all times. These are burst
speeds, meaning your connection can go up as high as the speeds
mentioned, or sometimes even higher than these if the network allows for it.

W h at ot he r f act o rs ca n affe ct s peed o f co n ne ctio n?

The type of Internet connection you use is the most important factor in
determining your connection speed. Apart from these, other factors include:
a) The health of the computer being used: It should be free from viruses or
spywares that may take up the computer’s bandwidth. This may be
checked by running a full virus or spyware scan on the computer.
b) Busy websites or spreading computer viruses. These can actually slow
the entire web. If a popular website isn't prepared to handle too much
traffic, you might encounter delays in accessing these sites.
c) Local Internet congestion. These slowdowns occur when many people
try to connect to the Internet at the same time, and they occur most
often at peak activity times, such as after school hours when students
get home and connect to the web.

For Wireless Globe Broadband Plans, modem location can also affect the
Radio Frequency signal and weak signal is indicated by blinking RSSI Led or
Signal Light on the modem. To correct this, change the location of the
modem making sure it is located at a suitable place and free from
obstruction (preferably near a window).

A re t he re any Internet limits o r time rest rictio ns with my


s ubs c riptio n?

No, there are no time restrictions with the subscription. The monthly service
fee covers unlimited surfing over Globe Broadband.

As for Internet limits, please refer to our Fair and Acceptable Use Policy.
Can I co n ne ct mo re th an o ne com p ute r to the Internet with
my s ubs c riptio n?

It depends on your subscription. For Globe Broadband Plans with speeds of


up to 384kbps, 1Mbps and 1.5Mbps, your modem unit can only be connected
to one PC as your modem has to be physically connected to the PC on which
you will use your broadband connection. For Globe Broadband Plans with
speeds of up to 2Mbps and 3Mbps, you may connect up to 3 computers at a
time to the Internet with your subscription.

My d ownl o a d s pee d is hig he r t h an my u pl o a d s pee d. W h y


are n’t they eq ual?

Since most users spend much more time downloading (which includes
viewing web pages or multimedia files) than they do uploading, high speed
Internet providers have designed their systems to give priority to
downloading thus the unequal speeds. Thus, if your upload speed appears to
be slower than your download speed, this is expected.

W h at if I want to mo ve t o a differe nt lo catio n? Will my


c o n ne ctio n g o with me?

This depends on the new location, if the service is available in the area. This
may be checked by contacting our Customer Hotline.
Regarding the Wireless Globe Broadband, while this may still work a few
meters around your house, the service is still designed to work only at the
address you indicated on your service application form.

How lo n g is my lo ck-in pe rio d?

The lock-in period across all offers is standard at 12 months.


Can I up g ra de my s ubs c riptio n with in my lo ck-in pe rio d?

Yes, you will be allowed to upgrade your subscription anytime. Please visit
your nearest Globe Payments and Service Center for more information
regarding the upgrade.

and causing the service problems, a replacement unit will be provided within
24-48 hours with no charge to the subscriber. If the findings indicate that
the Wireless Globe Broadband service cannot work properly in the residence
due to inadequate signal, the account will then be terminated with no pre-
termination fee. However, we will not rebate nor be held responsible for the
months for which the subscriber has already paid for the service because it
is the responsibility of the subscriber, as stated in the Terms and Conditions,
to return the product within 7 days if unsatisfied.
If for any reason, you will terminate your account, please note that you will
have to return the units issued under your account. These are the modem
and/or Globe handset. Both must be returned COMPLETE (including the box,

This may be because of interference. This happens when the signal cannot
reach your unit because of an obstruction. Simply call our Customer Care
Hotline to report this occurrence. An engineer will check your area and work
on the resumption of your signal. If signal still cannot be recovered, you may
be asked to bring your modem to the nearest Globe Payments and Service

request for a home visit for our personnel to check your modem. You will
however need to pay for the necessary fees if you decide to have your
modem serviced at home.

However, if the modem is working and signal is still not recovered, you may
pre-terminate your account without being charged a pre-termination fee.

very low cost, instead of paying a huge price to buy just one game.

Pre-termination fee is the remaining balance from the 12 month lock-in


period. For example: I subscribed to the Globe Wireless Broadband +
Landline Bundle with an MSF of Php1295. After 9 months, I choose to
terminate my subscription. Since I still have 3 months before my lock-in
period ends, I need to pay Php1295 MSF x 3 months = Php 3885.
