i am sticking to starcomms. while they are not offering out of the world speed, i have not experienced any major problem on their network. imagine , MTN just yanked their gprs, EDGE and 3G off the air without apology, forewarning or regard to customer live subscriptions. 4 days now no gprs in PH.

Re: Starcomms Izap - Is It Really Fast As Starcomms Claim? by obinna5000(m): 9:57pm On Feb 28, 2009
There is a big difference between bit transfer rates and file transfer rates.
We keep mixing them up.

@init4dmoni
The Rx speed of 600Kb/s you are getting is the bit transfer rate or transmission speed measured in kilobits per second and not the file transfer speed measured in kilobytes per second.

my guy no vex abeg,,,,,,,,, am not d kind of person dat brags abt somtin like dis & besides gurus like u alredy know abt dis mtn fbt & am sure beta 1s even latest tech 4 it


@obinna
men dats simple arithmetic,,,,,,,,,,d Rx speed u see r in kb/s(kilobits) & u only hv to divide by 8 to get d KB/s(kilobytes) rate (e.g 600kb/s = 75KB/s) wit dis u wud den know d average file transfer speed wich most donwload managers show wink wink

ok, my starcomms evdo subscription expired and i just switched to mtn nite package. yea yea 3gig, but wht the hell, i dont do much on the internet any longer (my downloading days are over, until i buy another 500gig HDD lol).

Here's wht i like about the mtn thingy:
its faster than lipsrsealed (yea yea we all know tht)
c'mon payment mode is so cool, just recharge and do ur thing.
u can check how much bandwidth u've used up already by sending 2 to 131.
