I'm planning to give up my Smartbro account and move to a Globe account. Heard of their promo? 1.5 Mbps for P995 a month. Unless Smart has something for me, I'll be migrating very very soon.
Prepare to hand over lots of cash to smartbro if your planning to switch and terminating your contract. Also, the 1.5 globe 9995 promo is available up to december only and in specific areas...

wireless is 512, 1.5 is wired
yes, 512 is the maximum for globe wireless, better than smartbro but I suggest going for wired.. Its much stable..
-
It's not that popular because it was not advetise on the t.v.
512 Kbps Plan is the one that was advertise on the t.v
1.5 Plan, i've seen and read about this in globe telecomm sites..and yes it is at 995 per month..
I could have this kind of service but unfortunately i was forced to turn to smartbro because it is just now that the globe lines are installing facilities in our place it would take long befora actual operation.

** Wired Globe Broadband Plan 1.5 Mbps Data Only is in selected areas from August 15-December 31, 2007 only. -
Right, because it removes the cookies. Why I suggested using the built in disk clean up instead. Use the ccleaner once a week instead.
Just what I do anyway. Then you won't have slow loads and for some relogging in here.
Kay.. Thanks again!!

Sweet.. But I think the pitch goes down again at the one-fourth bar then escalates.
000xx00000000000
Escalating - 0
Low pitch - x
Well thats just my theory.. :
-
Thanks!!
But deleting cookies makes your computer load pages longer right?
-
i guess it does i just took a test not running ccleaner, used flushdns instead, heres the result. not using both ccleaner gives me 500+ mark

How often do you flush DNS? I run CCleaner around twice a week.. I think i got to try..
-
Yeah, it depends on many things I guess. But it is always an alternative. Most actually get better with cablenut. Was just throwing an option in there.
Yup, actually I ran the TCP optimizer first and adjusted some settings by cablenut.. So Im running two tweaking programs right now... Well, that setup kinda works for me...
-
Ouch, so they lock you back in to go on? Even after your time is up? That stinks.
Yeah it kinda sucks when all ISP's here are money suckers :haha:
-
OK, for some results will actually be better with it. I know on satelite it was faster for me.
Many times I tried to tweak with TCP optimizer and waited a few days but havent got any luck with it.. You just set it to optimal settings right? But i noticed my upload speed went down and no change in the download speed..
I really tried to like TCP Optimizer but I think it hates me...
-
same method flush cache with crap cleaner and take the test. works out just fine. nothing new added. same goes with my 2nd xp machine on its 20 step .
this is sample not using ccleaner before the test.

So.. flushing the DNS really works?
-
so after the lock in period expires and you continue using smartbro there are no more lock in periods?
Yes there is... a new contract means being locked for another 12 months....

Man, Im sick of this frickin debate on the smartbro threads between members... :shock:
The debate rages on!!!
Is it really effective or not!?
CAST YOUR VOTES NOW!!! : :

=O what a language
yeah... I think this smartbro forum is getting a little bit out of hand, I cant understand any of that I dont even know what dialect is that.. Also trash talking here and there..

its pretty funny when guys nag too!
:haha:

@coolbuster
All I can say is learn to accept criticisms, especially constructive ones. Instead of badmouthing others, remember that everyone is entitled to their own opinions, and you should respect that. I for one never tried the 20 steps so I cant tell whether it works or not.. I computed my own cablenut settings and have my own computer maintenance. But you should always welcome comments, negative or positive.
Peace!!

Mine is still package SMBRO...
Will they upgrade all subscribers to 512 or selected areas only?
-
Googled something... I forgot the keyword
-
It still doesn't work.. But thanks for helping me sir Dlewis, appreciated it.. Its not a problem as long as i can update it... Thanks again!!
-
If it were a pagefile issue, how would I fix that?
Try disabling the virtual memory at system properties then restart. see if it changes, try disk cleanup, then turn it on again (I use system managed size)
-
Do you remember what you used to get rid of it? I'm trying adaware now...
I think i used spybot S&D and also adaware personal.. if that doesnt work. It definitely is Pagefile or system restore problem..
I also tweaked my pagefile that day so I dont know if the malware I deleted or the pagefile itself solved it... But one of them surely worked...
