I'd just like to ask for feedback from fellow Globe users who uses GPRS connections to connect their PCs or laptops.

I find it irritating that my connection suddenly drops out, and though im still connected to the network I can't reach any website.

If I try to browse the net from WAP or my PDA, the connections work but using my laptop it fails.

The problem seems random but only occurs with when I use the laptop.

@grifter
how do you do SMS over GPRS? What does that mean?

It means that your message uses the GPRS channel instead of the usual GSM data channel. One nice thing about it, is that SMS messages are sent substantially faster to the SMSC compared to usual method.

If you wonder if this means anything else, well it really depends on the SP. Some of us here claim may claim that we're doing the network a favor by de-congesting the GSM data channels by sending SMs over GPRS (at the same time hoping that those messages weren't deducted from the text allocations )

Officially, none of the locals SPs support SMS over GPRS. I don't know about SMART (if ever it had been available to their users - arnoldc?? ), but it used to be that it can be done using the Globe network.

Sino nga yung kadebate ko dito on whether Globe did or did not support it?

ayun, si GPRS pala.

Anyway, I can still send SMS over GPRS -- hehe but I got to use my PDA and go over to websites that offers free SMS. Since I use GPRS to connect to the net, then it's still SMs over GPRS (over WAP) mweheheh

@gowin, Smart never supported SMS via GPRS from the start. They know the implications...
