I've never tried running a speedtest ...Sorry, no... I've never tried running a speedtest for Globe Visibility on a local (Philippine-based) server. Most of the sites I access are outside the country, so it didn't even occur to me to test a local site. <BR/><BR/>For what it's worth -- I've noticed that when I set the network connection to "3G only" I get much better speeds -- but only if the 3G signal in the area is strong enough. <BR/><BR/>At my friend's house, we've found that it's better to set the modem to "GPRS only" because although there's 3G, the signal strength is so weak that GPRS is actually faster. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, I no longer use Visibility these days since I only had it on loan from a friend while I was waiting to get my DSL installed.<BR/><BR/>Hope the performance you're getting improves soon. It's a real shame if you're only getting below-dial-up speeds.mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12363852738191757748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33594625.post-36760372899362005972007-05-12T00:09:00.000+08:002007-05-12T00:09:00.000+08:00Have you tried running the same test locally?

You will be lucky if you can even complete a test on the same speedtest.net site!<BR/><BR/>I am a very recent subscriber and I have never been so disgusted with a product that promises a lot more that it can actually deliver.<BR/><BR/>Imagine, paying that much for something that will give you performance levels a lot less than dial up connection using a landline.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
