EDSA is Now Powered by Super Fast #SMARTWIFI

This year--this month to be exact-- something I never thought possible even in my wildest dreams was brought to life. I never thought I'd be able to witness such an amazing feat in this lifetime, actually. First it was our airports, now EDSA!!! Could you believe it? I've always been amazed by other countries' free public wiFi service, wishing and hoping we' have the same service back home. But of course, it was all just wishful thinking. NOT ANYMORE!!! OMG. Guys, I am so happy to share with you all that we now have free public wiFi at MRT stations and along EDSA!!! And just like the airport, the government partnered with the country's top telecom company, SMART! Read on to know more...

Thanks to my cousin Kikoy for the real time pic! Hihi.

 At first we didn't know what the event was about so there was a quick press briefing! And when I learned what it's all about, I got so hyped!

All of us trying out how fast the new #SMARTWIFI is!


Commuters waiting for the train and passengers shuttling through Metro Manila’s busiest highway may now enjoy productivity and convenience like never before as mobile services provider Smart Communications has launched its super speed Smart Wifi at MRT stations and along EDSA. The service is now available at all the 13 MRT platforms and will soon be enjoyed by passengers along EDSA, providing commuters an extensive mobile experience. Wow!!!


Open to all subscribers of ALL networks, Smart Wifi lets users connect to Smart’s newest and fastest network to surf, stream and download content for an initial free 30 minutes every day without data cap. You're welcome daw from SMART, guys. So convenient!

Ana trying out the new #SMARTWIFI along EDSA! Dami na niya nagawa hehe.

To enjoy super speed and reliable connectivity, simply check for Smart Wifi signs and turn on your Wifi connection. Then, select #SmartWifi @MRT EDSA from the list of available Wifi networks to connect and start browsing.



The Smart Wifi service lets you extend your free 30 minute session per day by purchasing Smart Wifi load from partner retailers in denominations of P20 pesos for 2 hours, valid for 2 days; and P50 for 10 hours, valid for 5 days.

You may also conveniently convert your Smart, Sun, and TNT load to Smart Wifi minutes by texting your preferred denomination – WIFI10, WIFI20 or WIFI50 – to 9991. Easy peasy!!! :)



Okay, so I tried it out myself and in less than 10 minutes I was able to check all my emails, update my social media accounts, read my blog (self love haha), stream videos and download files!!! It's that fast! There was a random ate girl who asked me what the fuss was about and when I explained it to her ayaw pa niya maniwala. So I told her to try it out and all she could say was, "wow oo nga!" while checking out her Facebook. Haha. 

 Browsed my blog

 Watched Baninay's #BU13 video! No lags!

Speedtest! So fast!

Aside from MRT and EDSA, PLDT and Smart have already deployed carrier-grade Smart Wifi service at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport, Light Railway Transit, in key regional airports, seaports and transport hubs all over the country, tourist spots, hospitals, schools, city halls, malls, as well as major hangout places across the country aptly called Smart Spots. I love it! One of my dreams for our country just came true. Thank you SMART! :)
