Globe Tattoo Broadband Bandwidth Download Cap Limit : What is your real speed?

ERRATA: may dagdag palang 699 ang PLDT DSL 1.5mpbs 999 dahil hindi pala ito puwedeng kunin na walang landline. But now, PLDT DSL has a similar offer 1299 1mpbs+landline.

Yes.. May limit, may cap, ang downloads.. according sa TPC thread:

http://www.tipidpc.com/viewtopic.php?tid=255402&page=7

ay meron. confirmed.

2mbps + Landline = 1299
Bandwidth cap: 150GB/month WITHOUT Speedboost
3GB/day WITH Speedboost

Pag na reach mo na ang CAP, 30% na lang ng speed mo so 600kbps. Pero yung iba sabi 300kbps lang daw kahit 2mbps. baka typo lng naman..

2mbps ang globe tapos may landline pa! 1299 lang! ang mura di ba?? mura nga ba?? KASO MAY LIMIT!
1.5mbps PLDT DSL internet lang 999! parang mahal!
anu ba talaga??? mas sulit nga ba ang globe kahit may LIMIT?? o ang PLDT na 1.5mbps pero walang limit???



MONTHLY REAL SPEED COMPUTATION 12hours/day FULL USE.

Hmmn... Kung adik ako...

Assume natin wasak lagi 2mbps dahil may 3 nagamit ng net sa bahay.. 12 hours nag iinternet... everyday..

2mbit / s * 12 hours/day * 60minutes/hour * 60 seconds/minute * 1byte/8bits =  10,800 mbyte/day

Kung 150 gig ang limit... it will take only __ days para maubos.

150,000mbytes / 10800mbyte/day = 13.89 days.

13.89 days lang ubos na ang cap.

so the remaining 16.11 days ay 30% ng 2mbps = 600kbps lang ang speed mo....

so ang totoong speed mo within 30 days ay.....

(16.11 days * 2mpbs * 30% + 13.89 days*2mpbs ) / 30days =  1.2482 mbps

tama ba computation ko??? lewlz... this is an approximation na 12hours lang online.. pano pa kung 24hours bukas pc?? whew. pldt n lng cguro 999 1.5mbps.



24 HOUR/day ONLINE REAL SPEED.



2mbit / s * 24 hours/day * 60minutes/hour * 60 seconds/minute * 1byte/8bits =  21,600 mbytes/day

Cap 150 GB will be expended in ___ days:

150,000mbytes / 21600mbyte/day = 6.94 days.

so the remaining 23.06 days ay 30% ng 2mbps = 600kbps lang ang speed mo....

so ang totoong speed mo within 30 days ay.....

(23.06days * 2mpbs * 30% + 6.94 days*2mpbs ) / 30days =  0.923867 mbps


Ay susmaryosep...... so Kung 24 hours ka online panalo ka pa rin sa PLDT na 1.5mbps.. sheeesh. well sino nga naman ba ang mag aabala magonline 24hours. nangyayari lang to kung tatlo kayo sa bahay tapos relyebo kayo dahil sa trabaho.. sa mga dadownload dyan 10 - 24hours at di naman kailangan ng landline palagay ko mas maigi PLDT DSL 999 1.5mbps all else equal.

Kung ayaw mo macap, dapat ang average hours lang ng download mo per day ay:

5000mbytes / 2megabits/s *8bits/byte* 1minute/60seconds * 1hour/60minutes   = 5.55 hours of full downloads.



Conclusion KO:

GLOBE 1299 2mbps DSL + Landline:
1. Kung di naman kayo paladownload at tamang FB youtube lang less than 6hours/day... ok sya siguro dahil di nyo mauubos yung 150GB a month.
2. Kung kailangan ng landline sulit. NOTE: di ko alam landline quality ng globe.
3. Sa mga Gamer.. Mataas ping nya sa ibang lugar. lalo na wimax.
4. In General: Kung di ka naman paladownload ng malalaking files pero pag kailangan mo ng extra speed pag nag online ka at kailangan mo ng landline ay puwede ang GLOBE DSL sayo..

PLDT 999 1.5mbps DSL:
1. Kung pala download ka at 10-24hours/day ka nagdadownload
2. Sa experience ko stable ang ping ng PLDT DSL kaya ok sya sa gaming.
3. Sa streaming, kung di naman HD yan.. palagay ko naman walang epek yung diprensya nilang 500kbps. At dahil WALANG CAP ang PLDT, umasa kang di babagal yang youtube streaming anyday.
4. In General: Kung araw araw ka nagdadownload at youtube at gaming tapos di mo maafford na bumagal ang speed mo ng 600 kbps at di mo kailangan ng landline ay PLDT DSL ang malamang na mas kailangan mo.



Kung kelan nyo tulong sa computation with your needs I'll try to help. Wala ako masasabi sa line quality marami nyan info sa net. pero yung computation ng actual needs nyo I can help. kung may mali ako sa computation pakicomment!

WinToFlash Missing or Corrupt: hal.dll bootsect.dos

 I/O Error accessing boot sector file multi(0)disk(0)partition(1)\bootsect.dos
 "Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \system32\hal.dll"


Are you having a missing hal.dll error after installing xp from a USB flash drive made by WinToFlash??? The solutions I found didn't work or were too complicated. If you get the error below, all you need to do is boot from the same USB flash drive again. When the splash screen appears, just select the option below the DEBUG option (DEBUG is the third option, so select the fourth). No need to edit the boot.ini for now, you could do it later when you can use windows already.

NOTE: If the fourth option doesn't work, try the other options BUT remember their partition number. The partition number is the number enclosed by parenthesis after the word partition in the option label.


NEXT STEP:  editing boot.ini

Intuition for the Dot Product and the Cross Product

Often, we know how to solve things by formulas and we accept whatever was given to us. One thing we are forgetting is that these formulas actually mean something. The video below is a great example how to break in to learners that mathematical abstractions are more than just patterns..

Dot product intution:

One of the main point is how the dot product measures how much two vectors go in the same direction. Sal  did just dot.



 

Cross product intuition

The second topic of this video is how the cross product measures how much two vectors are perpendicular to each other. He also explained how the length of the cross product equals the area of the parallelogram the two vectors create.



One thing Sal could have added to this video is why we get negative values. Well, he might have had left that undiscussed for the viewer to think about.
