Sky DSL / Bayantel DSL now Bayan DSL. Speeds Have Increased!
Friday
Nov 9, 2007
Just got word from Bayantel DSL customer service that they have increased speeds across the board. New plan speeds are as follows:
- Plan 899 (PhP 899 per month) – from 384 Kbps now 768 Kbps, burstable to 1280 Kbps during off-peak hours
- Plan 1699 (PhP 1,699 per month) – from 768 Kbps now 1280 Kbps, burstable to 1536 Kbps during off-peak hours
- Plan 1999 (PhP 1,999 per month; new plan!) – 2048 Kbps
- Plan 2560 (PhP 2,560 per month) – from 1536 Kbps now 2560 Kbps
Apparently new subscribers as of Nov 1st of this year are getting these packages already. Existing subscribers have to request for an upgrade, which I find very inconvenient and unfair (because we don’t get it automatically). Still, this is a good move on Bayantel’s part, especially considering that their competitors are also increasing speeds.
Here’s one of my latest speedtest results:

‘Have been a subscriber for more 2 years I believe. I didn’t have a problem w/ bayandsl since a couple of months ago. speed has really gone down to a crawl, specially during office hours and early evening.
During late evening upto early morning speeds are upto par with their ads and competitors. 1am – 4am at times exceeds my subscribed speed. This maybe due to their (SOD) promo? Even though i don’t turn the feature on.
Their after sales service is best ; one day after a complaint their service crew is there checking everything – however – i need the speed. So, I’ll give them a month or two, see if this improves – if not then I’ll have to shift to another ISP.
From my understanding, this problem is based as per area ; the more subscribers in the area – the slower the connection would be as connections are shared.
My area as per router:
Sat Jun 13 17:28:32 2009 PADO recv 0016 PROJ8-PE2-ST50
I assume this includes proj 6 area as well as I am in proj 6 but a few hundred meters away from the boundary of Proj 8.
So in conclusion – BayanDSL business (i assume) is good ; but for people like me who were first to subscribe in the area are suffering the consequence – hence – If you are near Proj 6 to Proj 8 area then I would look for another ISP.

hey guys nun last saturday may pumunta sa bhay na magkakabit ng dsl chineck lang yung mga cable then sabi di daw maikakabit diko tuloy malaman kung tinatamad lang ba yung contractor na nagkakabit ng cable or yun na yung hint na hihingi na sila ng lagay badtrip nirerfund ko ang payment ko tas na hold pa mag antay daw ng 1 week what kind of service do you have guys masisira kayo sa customer nyan.. kesyo ganon kesyo ganyan di na lang ninyo sabihin kung pede o hinde.. do something.. dapat mag focus din kayo sa compliant at iwasan ang macompromiso.. prove me wrong kalookohan na di kmi makakabitan ng dsl lahat ng neighbors ko bayantel ang line ng phone.. if you’re really reaching out sa mga customer like me do your job, wag paasahin ang customer, be responsible and patient.. almost everyday na lang tumatawag ako sa hotline walang nangyayari kaya diko ko na lang sasahin yung concern at complaints ko..
