My VPN's pinger, a small program that indicates if I do have an Internet connection or not, is always indicating red all night. It just means that I am not connected. I do get a momentary connection when I get the blue color and I just hurriedly upvote and engage to my friends in my post as fast as I can until I lose connection again.
I am close to crying about my Internet and it makes me so frustrated and sad about it. I am also close to getting a postpaid Internet and I will do it now so I can get at least a decent connection with a much better signal than what I am using today from my current ISP. Recently I saw a postpaid option with a 500 GB data and I would pay about $32 dollars for it monthly. It really isn't my personal want but a need to get connected as I need to steemit everyday as well.
I think everyone would agree that Internet is not only a part of our lives now but it really is our life. Without the Internet I wouldn't be able to get some help from my friends around the globe and save myself from all of my medical burdens. It is just like magic when we get to communicated instantaneously without borders within our convenient places thanks to a system on worldwide interconnection of computers invented by great minds in the US military.
Right now there are technologies out there that is in use that we would only see and hear and maybe experience only after ten years because it was always like that. The technologies that we use today are just remnants of a series of developments that would root around the US military experiments. Somehow they contributed good things to humanity but sadly was being used as a puppet by corrupt political interests.
In my country I am proud to share that my country's president is expediting the entry of another Internet Service Provider that will operate in the third quarter of next year. It means that our current oligarch-monopolistic Internet service providers will get a formidable competition that will possibly lower the Internet costs that mw fellow countrymen pays.. So it is a good news because the good political will of President Duterte.
At least now I could look forward into something promising about my country's Internet service and it will indeed result for the better in the ives of my fellow countrymen because the Internet had gone to be a basic need that should always be in arm's length away when we needed it.
Hope you can get a better connection soon.
In your country you are proud to share that your country's president is expediting the entry of another Internet Service Provider that will operate in the third quarter of next year.thats sound really good .i am expecting my country's govt will take this kind of step.thank you for sharing this things.
It is to much expensive 500 GB data and you would need to pay about $32 dollars, Is there is not any connection which has unlimited but fixed rate?? Are you using mobile device for internet?? I just know that mobile connection devices of LTE is much costly than landline connections. I hope that you will be find to good connection soon.
I believe that it really is a costly option but maybe soon there will be an option for much a reasonable rate that I can avail.
I think that there is only few companies that's the reason they are charging to much high prices.
I think that government just love to take taxes and do not want to deliver to people :( Really sad :( that's double standard called. Is not it? I just read this https://vulcanpost.com/8175/did-you-know-in-the-philippines-people-pay-more-for-slower-internet/ post and it is really surprising for me that in your country they are charging to much from you guys with slow speed internet :(
Yes, with monopolistic scheme, the people would suffer but something is being done by president Duterte so that there would arise a sensible competition for ISPS's so that prices would go down eventually.
After reading this still do not understand what's going on there?? :( :( everything going wrong :( Really sad
I read above link find that
Medicines, for instance. I cannot forget the account of a lymphoma patient when I was training in the Philippine General Hospital: The patient’s family members would fly to India just to buy Mabthera (Rituximab); it was cheaper to go there—airfare and all—and buy the drug for around P30,000 a vial, than to buy the same vial here for P90,000.
http://opinion.inquirer.net/103710/more-expensive-in-the-philippinesIt is really bad of all what can do poor patient who do not have enough income sources :( just they are not checking companies which are charging so much high amount of medicines, Really sad :(
Yeah that's great of president Duterte, he is creating competition so prices will go down soon.
I hope so president Duterte will look on all that bad taxes too and will be take some tax reform for everyone.
I know how you feel....does it only happen in the night? Or could it be because of the rains?
I don't know what is the factor but I am using a VPN so the slowness could be attributed unto it. Most of the time it is just impossible to post.
I feel with the use of vpn,internet should be better.it should not be slow.
Most of us don't realise how lucky we are, not having to worry about any of that! Wish we all had the same chance at life, sending positivity ❤🤗
I had to live for a year without internet, I will never do that again...
Internet is like air for people nowadays. In my country you can find wifi everywhere, on the train stations, inside the trains, in the libraries, and in the super stores etc.
Yes we have the same situation
My VPN is always blocking my Smart Prepaid Sim
So frustrating and a cost of money
Right now I have 7 sims and all of those are blocked by the mobile data...
I hope Pres Duterte will allow foreign investors of internet here in PH as soon as possible
There are wonderful foundations such as Substratum that are working towards a decentralized internet for countries like yours who's internet is heavily monopolized. Looking forward to their progress in the next coming year!
Now live without a difficult Internet connection, let alone a lot of our work that uses internet connection, hopefully you are not sad hopefully everything will be fine.@cryptopie
Hope, you'll get a better internet connection ASAP.
My best wishes for you.
I also think that for you, you can get an internet connection very quickly and you can post beautifully thanks for us.
