The fastest-growing telecommunications provider in the Philippines, DITO Telecommunity has officially launched the world’s first home Wi-Fi powered by 5G RedCap technology, named DITO Home WOWFi. This new product, developed in partnership with Huawei Technologies, aims to revolutionize home internet by offering Filipinos an affordable yet high-speed broadband solution.
The DITO Home WOWFi is designed to deliver fast internet speeds of up to 100 megabits per second (Mbps), utilizing DITO’s standalone (SA) “true 5G” network. Unlike traditional Wi-Fi setups, this technology offers a seamless wireless experience, eliminating the need for wired connections while providing users with the full potential of 5G.
A Market Disruptor: Affordable, Fast, & Unlimited Wi-Fi
Evelyn Jimenez, DITO’s Chief Revenue Officer for Consumer Business, highlighted that the new DITO Home WOWFi is set to disrupt the current internet market, addressing the limitations faced by many Filipino households.
“In reality, the current internet options of Filipino households are quite limiting. You can get fast and unlimited Wi-Fi, but it won’t be cheap; you can get fast and affordable but not unlimited, and you can get affordable and unlimited, but it won’t be fast– this is the reality we live in. As the third telco committed to enhancing the lives of the Filipino people, we want to change the norm and disrupt the market by giving Filipinos the home internet they deserve– fast, unlimited, and affordable,” Jimenez said.
Jimenez emphasized that the new service is tailored to meet the demands of digital transformation and technological advancements, providing Filipinos with an internet service that supports remote work, online learning, and smart home integration.
