We’ve all heard claims of superiority for internet speed, right? They’re everywhere. But I come to you today to set the record straight and give actual wireless broadband internet speed test results. No pageantry, no bells and whistles, no fake testimonials. We’re giving you straight up facts and numbers, wireless broadband at its finest. If ever you’ve had any doubts about Globe Tattoo internet speed, you can put them aside and lay your wireless broadband fears to rest.
We contracted the help of NESIC, Philippines, to help us with our internet speed tests. They conducted a number of tests over a number of locations using mobile broadband providers. They used NetPerSec, it’s software that checks the connection at all times by monitoring the TCP/IP activity.
Oh, hold on, you don’t know who NESIC is? NESIC, Philippines provides full turnkey engineering services for public and private business networks, which includes telecoms and network systems. Here, let me show you who else they’ve done tests for, just to show you they’re completely unbiased.
Here are their mobile broadband internet speed test results:
The internet speed measurements are in Kbps, which means kilo-bits per second, so the numbers up there represent the amount per thousand bits being sent per second through the mobile broadband stick. A bit is the most basic measurement of data. The blue colored fonts represent the higher value in each test.
The Local FTP Download test used a 12MB file, which is about the size of three or four 3-minute MP3s with a bit rate of 128kbps. The International Download file size from download.com is 6MB, which is about the size of a really packed PowerPoint presentation or two MP3 files.
The wireless broadband internet speed test was executed via Speedtest, which is a website dedicated to measuring a connection’s true Internet speed, whether wired or wireless broadband, by three key measurements- Download (the speed at which data is sent from the web to you computer), Upload (the speed at which data is sent from your computer to the web) and Ping Latency (the speed at which for a tiny piece of data is sent from your computer to the Internet and back).
2Wire was also used. It is another site with a Speed Meter, but it tests the internet speed at which a computer can load a page from the 2Wire website. A good wireless broadband connection should yield a consistent result.
Overall internet speed and performance are determined by download speed over time, average download speed, the consistency at which the speed is maintained and upload speed.
There you have it, friends- cold, hard facts. Now, who has the fastest wireless broadband internet speed? If that doesn’t do it for you yet, here are some tips on improving your connection.
But don’t take our word for it; of course we won’t expect anything less from you guys. Grab a Globe Tattoo Broadband stick now and test our wireless broadband stick out for yourselves!

i have all 3 stick type broadbands. globe has the worst connection in my area (diliman) and in san fernando by city hall. it did have a decent speed in angeles though it kepy disconnecting. cebu city was pretty bad to, but mactan hilton was decent.
Thanks for the truth, Nesic Phils. These telecom companies have got to stop bickering and simply show the true results. Of course, all they can do is market, but the truth will trump over everything.
The moment I heard Smart’s speedtest commercial, I knew it had hidden biases. One, it didn’t even say where it tested. Two, it only tested once? On location and one time?? That’s very unrealistic of true performance. Three, the testimonials given were so scripted. I could craft a hundred different lines saying that. But hey, if they were going to pay me I would have done it too. Lolz.
Now that the study is over, i hope the marketing will quiet down. They must be spending so much money and getting defensive, but it doesn’t help the consumers. It’s only confusing the public who is telling the truth.

Honestly I’m a Tattoo user and I’m quite happy with the speed. I just need to make sure i’m connected to an HSDPA connection and not GPRS.
i just wanna ask kung my avail ba na HSPDA sa antipolo area ….im living near woodrow hills or maia alta…….
