It is rather normal now to have homes functioning as offices, classrooms, and for business owners, their headquarters as most of us are still spending more time at home. But with all of these new normals, one thing remains the same: homes are still the place where families can foster stronger connections and, ultimately, do things together.

Remaining productive, entertained, and connected is now easier with PLDT Home’s new Fibr Plans that enable families to enjoy bigger and better internet coverage. Powered with speeds of up to 1,000 Mbps, they can play, work, study, and earn better at home.

Stronger Connections at Home

PLDT Home subscribers can now enjoy better home internet coverage as the new Fibr Plus Plans come with a WiFi Mesh Network that can eliminate dead spots for an uninterrupted digital experience. This uses a smart home technology that allows devices to automatically detect and connect to the fastest router in less than a second, whether the user is moving from one room to another.

With speeds of up to 1,000 Mbps, every member of the family can enjoy simultaneous streaming on multiple devices, so they can keep up with their favorite online shows. Parents working on their jobs or businesses, or children in the thick of online schooling can stay on top of everything with PLDT Home’s symmetrical upload and download speeds that allow them to update real time, make uninterrupted video calls, and send large files with ease.

In homes equipped with smart home devices, Fibr Plus Plans can provide seamless connections to ensure that everything is running as it should — from CCTVs for security to robot vacuum cleaners that highly depend on connectivity — all the time.

The WiFi Mesh Network also ensures online safety for its users as it is equipped with simple and intuitive parental controls so that families can keep themselves, especially children, safe when they go online. It also helps subscribers to keep their passwords safe from unwanted users as it can assign a guest wifi which can have a different network name and password from the main users at home. Ultimately, the wifi mesh network enables subscribers to manage and monitor their family’s internet usage easily through a mobile app even when they are away from home.

PLDT Home subscribers can stay strongly connected at home as the new Fibr Plus plans come at different speeds that suit every family’s needs. Existing PLDT Home subscribers who want to upgrade to the new Fibr plans can also enjoy the free installation and modem fees.
