My internet got screwed again four days ago and an appointment got cancelled yesterday. So, I decided not to go anywhere today and finally the technician arrives.
Things got screwed up so that he decided to replace it with a new one. I mean after a couple of years, I finally got that stone age thing replaced
. I've been begging that thing change, now they finally did it.
Not sure what to do with the router though but he connected to it anyways.

Hello @carebear29 well, the new modem looks cute and even lighter than the last one.

Happy for you. I also just replaced my old modem. The problem with my modem was that if there was a power failure, it would take hours before it would open again. Good thing that I was able to find a replacement.

@Letranknight2015 My ISP is Bayantel. For some reason, Globe purchased the company. Bayantel closed their office, so I went to Globe for replacement and told me to wait. As I could wait no more, I tried to contact the previous technician whom I saved the number. He was the one who helped me in finding a new modem.

@ARIES1973 That's what the agent recommend me during my last call but the technician here change his number. So I had to wait two weeks for him to come but then something went wrong again and he went back.

You didn't have the network to replace it for you? @ARIES1973 they could have done that.

@Letranknight2015 When I first used broadband, WiFi routers did it exist. This ace it necessary for me to route the incoming signal from the router to a wireless station. I had to configure the router page by page then couple the wireless station and reconfigure that for each unit.
That was a real laborious job.

Because my old modem didn't have any antenna like this one @Asylum the router was meant to spread the wifi into the phones and laptops. It was laborous alright, specially when my brother set it up.

@Letranknight2015 really? so, you believe Globe is better than the PLDT now? don't you have any errors in connection? maybe only when your WiFi has no more load, am i right?

When I get a new modem I give them the old one. Modems are important. Glad you got yours replaced.

We had no choice because the old one got screwed with the password and ip address changes.

@Letranknight2015
Makes sense and you need the modem to access internet.

I have always had good experience with Globe as they act fast on my request and it's always favorable to me. I guess it's because I have a blue account. Blue account is a privilege account.

@Letranknight2015 I have 6 postpaid plans with globe and none are below 2,799 per month. I have been with them since time immemorial. Globe telecom was the first and only digital telecom then that offers free text messaging. I was already with them then. I think that's why I have a blue account.

How will you know if you have a blue account? @toniganzon I have access the website through my email but it's my moms account.

@Letranknight2015 oh, I thought its pink, maybe the surrounding or the table is pink, that's why.
