It will be slower than the canopy coz it uses usb slot…
It would split the computers memory with other apps…
It will have to emulate the Ethernet cards function…
Not sure if Smart is aware that there are alot of people illegally connecting/connected to their AP’s. People even sell their Motorola Canopy’s for as low as Php 2,000 not really sure if they know how much that device is worth.
I know this beforehand because I know someone hooked up illegally. NO MONTHLY BILLS. Connections like this make paying customers suffer. I mean it’s already slow and these illegal connections make it M&%*#%%(#(*&^% slower.
Check out this guy offering UNLIMITED SMARTBRO WIRELESS CONNECTION FOR 1 YEAR

It is titled: “Up To …” Are We Getting The Speed As Advertised?
thanks
oti
wth
bakit po ganito ang smart 2 times na akong nag load ng oltxt20 in one day pero check operator parin.
ito po number ko 09289690283 ibalik po sana..
Smartbro’s ad said that we will get online connection within 2 to 3 days, we applied for a connection on the 2nd of January and it has been 19 days yet we still don’t have any. We went to a Smart Wireless Center to follow up on the application and they just gave us the run around that they will just call us if a unit is available… meaning, this could even get longer than who knows…
If I’m not mistaken, there should always be truth in advertising.
why my smart bro broadband was so slow how cn i change it from speed of 10 to become 100?????
Kumuha na kami nung 799, sana ok rin yun tulad nung 999 namin…

@brat_bastard… Matagal yata talaga kasi nagkakaubusan daw nung unit. 2 weeks bago naapprove yung application namin tapos 1 pa uli bago naibigay yung unit so 3 weeks kaming naghintay.
ok ra na
si abordo gani demonyo kaayung dako…..mo skwela lng ug walay klase
all those rekllamo are correct and sincere, in our case since
our conneciton last month to date, I have not yet experienced of a peaceful connection, meaning everyfew minutes of connection there is always a disconneciton- despite clicking local area connection status – support – repair -the msg always contact the person who manage
your network – when you contact -you only hear ringing – machine not human -so no repair, no connection – there must lbe a law against business for not answering call from
customers -after three calls in successon – Hope Sen Estrada
will file a bill on thismatter – thnks
ha sabe 60 hours free, ilan hours yung binabayaran? mabagal na canopy (sa taas na yun!!!) usb pa (sa loob ng bahay)
why is it our bill for smartbro plan 999 isnt arrived yet.the due date is on last aug.7.
In fairness to everyone, SmartBro Plugin does reach very good speeds (higher than 380kbps) around these areas:
- ATC in Alabang
- Festival Mall in Muntinlupa
- Greenbelt 3 in Makati
- Metrowalk in Ortigas
…and barely reaches 150kbps (max download) in BF Resort Las Pinas (where they have their own boosted cellsite!).
So god knows what’s going on with these sites but I assure you that Smart is more clueless than any of us are! Since they sold ZTE USB modems that said it’d get good reception despite their wacky 3G cell network anyway.
*knock* *knock* ….. tsk tsk.
bkit madalas po madisconnect lalo po pag nagchachat me..???kainis minsan…
uhmmm… hello, kakasubscribe ko lang sa smartbro plan 999.

m planning to get the smart broadband dto angono rizal,ok kya ang speed nila dto
ayun totoo pala nag upgrade na smartbro from 512kbps to 1mbps… weee..
SmartBro has been good since I started subscribing since May last year. The longest I had no Internet connection was 3 days, which occurred once. The other times were just several hours. But now, SmartBro is performing badly in our subdivision. We had unstable connection since Wednesday last week. That’s a record 11 days now!
Do you know if broadband is affected by the number of subscribers serviced by a base station? I’m thinking now na nirarasyon ng SmartBro yong service kasi these past days, sometimes connection is okay for about 2 hours, and then
mawawala for about 5 hours, then returns for 30 mins or an hour, and then goes off again.
I don’t like moving to Globe Broadband, because the speed is slow (nakikigamit ako pag walang SmartBro), kaya lang di ko alam kung anong balak ng SmartBro dito ngayon sa amin. I’m frustrated that they are not doing anything to solve the problem when they have a lot of customers in our area.
jojo, just wanna ask..

I called trice and smart bro did adjustment in our 999 plan to be consumed for 2 years contract…The costumer service stated that they took an adjustment and I received a message on my mobile phone a confirmation, yet our connection still the same, smart bro stated that there are no error report or technical error report on our connection… T_T damn We can’t Enjoy this service… We want to quit this service and switch to other network but as costumer we have to pay for the remaining balance for 2 year contract as signed. for my 4 years of using smart bro only the past 2 years were stable and we enjoy the service from smart bro… starting august 2011 – jan 2012 our connection became weird its only available on midnight sooner our connection is unstable… We even pay advance..
