I am currently having problems connecting to the world wide web.
As you all know, mahirap ang connection dito sa bukid.
I have to rely solely to mobile internet service providers a.k.a. Smart and Globe.
May wifi naman dito but it’s 30 minutes away from where I stay and security is so not safe. The best wifi hotspot dito sa bukid is an hour away sa city but I rarely go there. Oftentimes when I’m in the city I always do work-related stuff, e.g. bank transactions, client follow-ups and etc. Walang time for myself or mag-surf.
Anymisery, Smart connection here now is terrible.
You know whenever may ‘weather trouble’ dito sa amin, naaapektuhan ang signal nila.
Really.
I think the catastrophe that is happening in Cagayan de Oro now is the ‘reason’ why mahina or walang signal ang majority of the municipalities dito sa bukid. Oftentimes kung may power loss ay nalo-lost din ang signal.
Chaka Khan much?
So now, I am using Globe Visibility, pero mahina pa rin ang connection.
Next to nothing, like 30-40kbps.
Pathetic noh?
Anyway, pagtiya-tiyagaan ko na lang muna ito. And pasensiya na rin if I haven’t kept in touch with most of you now. Blame it on the mobile service providers. Not on me. Hahaha!

i can so relate with you mel! i use smart gprs dito sa barrio via my 3G phone. pag umulan nawawala ang signal. ganu din pag makapal ang rain clouds. bumili din ako ng globe visibility pero hindi umubra. 3 kbps lang yata. i can go to the city mga 20 minutes travel sa jeep to get a decent internet connection. pero minsan eh mas comfy dito sa bahay kahit pangit ang internet connection ko dito.
