PLDT Home recently featured its add-on subscription, MyOwnWiFi. The new service gives bandwidth hogs their own connection in their home with the same speed as their original Fiber service.
The new service gives you the same internet but with additional speed to what you’ve been enjoying in your existing subscription through a dedicated secondary connection. You can get the second connect for as low as PHP 649 per month.
“PLDT Home MyOwnWiFi is the country’s first-ever service that provides a dedicated secondary Internet connection. This innovation allows our customers to have a twin connection with the same speed as their existing Fiber service.”
Evert Chris Miranda, PLDT’s Vice President and Head of Digital Services
PLDT Home – MyOwnWiFi
You can choose between Fiber Unli Plans and Fiber Plus Plans. Both offer superior internet speeds, but the latter also gives you two or three Mesh WiFi devices that are ideal for bigger homes with thick walls and multiple rooms and needs a seamless WiFi coverage.
Easy to Install and and Activate
MyOwnWiFi is activated instantly or within 24 hours upon confirmed subscription. It is easy to connect to the LAN port 2 of your existing PLDT Home modem without installers at home. Once it’s connected, you can use it with your personal devices upon activation.
Here’s a quick guide to setting it up:
- Connect one end of the ethernet (LAN) cable to existing modem’s LAN Port 2.
- Connect the other end of the ethernet (LAN) cable to the WiFi Mesh bundled or directly to a device.
- Set-up the WiFi Mesh if not yet configured.
