New subscribers of Globe Tattoo DSL will have a new subscription offering which puts the daily data cap to a monthly cap. Old subscribers will continue to follow the old plans while renewals or new subs will be offered monthly caps ranging from 10GB to 500GB per month.

The entry level subs (Plan 999, Plan 1088) will be given a monthly data allocation of 10GB while higher plans (Plan 9999) will be given 500GB of data allocation per month with a top speed of 150Mbps.

The old daily caps are allocated as such:

DSL 1Mbps: 3GB per day
DSL 2Mbps: 5GB per day
DSL 3Mbps: 7GB per day
DSL 5Mbps: 10GB per day
DSL 7Mbps: 10GB per day

Once the caps are reached, the line is then throttled to 64Kbps.

So I finally got the much-needed DSL upgrade at home. We upped our broadband plan from the usual 2Mbps (a 2nd DSL as backup) to 10Mbps and made it our primary fixed-line connection.

We decided to make the move after burning thru the battery of the HTC One which I’ve used as an LTE hotspot for 3 months. It was a costly move and now I don’t waht to do the same thing to my LG G2.

So an upgrade to the home DSL is more convenient. Here’s the speed test we got from the 10Mbps line. Did it in the afternoon so we’re hoping it’s going to be faster in the evenings.

So far, we’re averaging 8.5Mbps which isn’t bad (we’re also getting around 900KB/s via P2P). It’s not as fast as the 20Mbps+ I’m getting via LTE but it’s enough. Read more about the upgrade and the freebies that came with it here.
