Title: Cignal Fibr
Post by: zoidar on May 22, 2013 at 11:44 PM
I would like to start a new thread based on Cignal's new fiber optic tv distribution in cooperation with PLDT's Fiber Optic Internet to distinguish this from the satellite distribution. Most Cignal Fibr topics should be discussed here.

A question to those who already have this, what location are you in and what should I do to get fiber optics in my area? According to people at tipid pc, pldt is offering fiber optics even if their village is not listed on the website and there's even a plan 1299 with 1.5mbps.

1300 peso for 1.5MBPS are they taking the piss? I get 100MBPS for not much more than than, and it gets upgraded to 120MBPS in 3 months for nothing. I have a dongle that is 4 times faster than than.

I assume nasa UK ka po.

Dito sa pinas we barely get that kind of speed kasi sobrang greedy ng mga ISP dito. Probably 10-20 yrs from now pa namin matitikman ang MURA at Mabilis na internet. hehehe.

Kakainggit lang sa mga developed na countries kasi sobrang bilis ng internet nila -__-, sample na lang ung GoogleFibr. They are offering free internet for life for 1 time payment.


Anyway I think this thread is intended for Cignal Fibr so chow :) O0 O0 O0

Cignal on fibr is nothing different compared to the satellite based thing...
aside from the physical dish that is not present on fibr subs.

fibr is available on select areas for now... it is mostly allocated to high end subd due to the higher subscription fee.

Cignal on fibr is the best option for Condo and MDU's

With fiber cignal I should be immune to the outages due to rain or other weather disturbances that may affect a satellite signal .

Not really. There's also Fibr in some places even though they're not listed on the website. Cignal on Fiber is better than the satellite one since it won't get affected by weather right?

Hindi ata po iptv Ito. Naka distribute po ang mga content through a fiber optic wire instead of coax so it's not reall iptv because it's not distributed through the Internet. Anyway fiber optic, satellite, cable and iptv pq are the same. Fiber optic has less interference unlike satellite (rain, storms) or cable (toasters, signals) so fiber optics is more reliable. Correct me if I'm wrong with anything.

5000 pesos for both 8mbps and all Cignal channels. That's good enough for the Phil's but I know other countries get higher speeds for cheaper.

it is IPTV

and it is not immune to weather disturbance as well.
but, it will be almost zero rain fade compared to satellite based at home because you will be getting direct from the big dish from the earth station.

PLDT kasi eh. sobrang tinitipid nila sa speed ang mga subs. PLDT myDSL subscriber ako, dating plan999(1.5MB)+700 for landline=P1699, until they offered me the PLDT telpad(2MB)+landline=P2000. And I noticed na mas mabilis ung dati kong plan compare sa new plan ko. though sa speed test 2mb nalabas.

Mas maganda ang plans ng globe, ung P2000 ko na PLDT(2mb) ang katumbas nun sa globe 3mb(P1599) / 5mb(2399) -___- . ang problema walang line ng globe samin :(

Post by: raptor on Jun 16, 2013 at 11:24 PM
Cignal Fibr is not IPTV ... similar to cable tv digital, it just happen to use the same physical fiber cable use to deliver both Internet and voice phone service ... hence it is also called triple play (tv, Internet, and phone) ... the three services does not impact each others performance, but of course if there's an issue with the cable you lose all three ... this is a good offering price wise - you'll be paying more if you subscribe separately for digital cable tv, Internet with the bandwidth they are offering, and phone service

Of course we cannot compare it with other countries ... Internet pricing varies radically country to country ... the one from UK is saying that it is too expensive, those in Japan would say that UK price is expensive, and we can say that Internet service in Australia is very expensive ... we should be comparing it with other local companies' offerings, we cannot get the subscription from abroad anyway, unless we migrate

Note that we are not in the posh villages na nasa list ng PLDT for Fibr.  Dito nga kami sa basag ulo area na maraming tricycle. LOL.  Kung heavy downloader kayo, like me (around 50-100gb of data per week), recommended tong Fibr.

Bro sa tingin ko gagawan nila ng paraan yan para pumasok sa loob ng bahay mo yung Fibr na di mag kaka problema like yung sa copper di ba pag wala abang sila na din gumagawa paraa. Ussually lahat naman ng bahay wala abang na Fibr now.

here is their new Fibr modem and the phone line is connected on the modem not with the splitter type.  ;) ;)

Got PLDT Triple Play Service with Cignal (http://pldthome.com/surf/fibr/triple-play-w-cignal) today.

After almost half a decade on trial with PLDT Fibr (used to enjoy 100Mbps when everyone was barely breaking 1Mbps on DSL & Cable) I am now discontinuing one phone number and myDSL Pro (P3,000/month) subscription to get on the P5,800/month plan of Triple Play PREMIER & 20Mbp/s + 1 IPTV (with 1 additional IPTV box next week). Prior to this we stopped our two SkyCable SDTV subscription that we've had for almost two decades a week ago.

Really unfortunate that Cignal doesn't have the BBC. :\

Mods: Perhaps renaming the thread to "PLDT Fibr with Cignal" would be more descriptive a title?

question mga sirs regarding Cignal on PLDT DSL ... PLDT is now offering Cignal on DSL subscribers as part of their triple-play offering, this was previously available for PLDT Fibr subscribers only ... I'd like to ask if what cable they are using from the router/modem to the cable box on the TV - reason I'm asking is that my phone line outlet where my modem connects is a little bit far from my TV ... another question is if HGTV HD is really available on Cignal - it's on their channel list for Ultimate, but cable providers just remove channels without notice ... thanks in advance

Hi All. 

We've been a subscriber of Cignal TV for many years ... maybe since their first year of service.  We now have 3 boxes on a P1290 plan.  At first it was touch and go, especially with their service response time and that infamous P500 if they have to go to your house, but I have to say that things have gotten better and I would not think of switching to another service for TV content.

The worry about rain fade has not been as terrible as I'd originally thought.  Service does drop out from time-to-time when it rains very hard, like last night, but the same could happen to cable/wire/fiber based services.  Moreover, while clouds will go away eventually, downed cables or whatnot from a typhoon, earthquake, or someone thinking fiber sells like copper, will take time to restore so do we really want to give up an ultra-reliable information source?

This is why I've been procrastinating on the decision to shift our Cignal subscription to the PLDT Home Fibr that we had installed about a year ago.  We do stand to save about P400 a month. Actually, the "savings" could be more because the P1,290 satellite subscription carries only 83 SD and 23 HD channels, while there are 81 SD and 26 HD on fiber.  So the fiber service will have more channels overall, with 3 more in HD to boot. 

The rain is pouring again and the kids are complaining that Cignal TV is down. So ... 

All things considered, we'll move the Cignal subscription to the fiber.  First reason is should a typhoon or earthquake break the fiber cable most of the information we'll need will be on AM/FM radio and the regular broadcast TV.  Cignal is after all more of an entertainment source in our house.  Second are the savings that while not that significant are still savings.  Lastly, we'll have something to entertain ourselves with when we're stuck in the house on a dreary rainy day.

Cheers.

Just got our set top box after the pldt fibr upgrade of free cignal subscriptions for home fiber plan..

As we also have an RCA digital tv receiver , one thing I noticed was it seems that on the free to air channels in SD the output from the RCA ISDB-T receiver was noticeably better and sharper .. Anybody else notice this .. I compared by connecting both to a 50 inch TV Monitor and switching input sources tuned to the same channel  ABS, TV-5 , and GMA 7..
Title: Re: Cignal Fibr
Post by: lncc63 on Nov 18, 2015 at 10:43 PM
We finally got it done. All three TVs are now connected via the PLDT Home Fibre service. Amazing! So far....

@jambam: Yes, we noticed similar. Even the HD channels seem clearer and shaper.  I though it just might be me but others are saying the same thing.

Another good thing is that we are now paying P500 less per month even though we're now getting more channels.

The bad thing is that if the fiber goes down we loose the PLDT landline, Internet,  and the cable. 

Good thing we also subscribe to Globe DSL :) and have a SMART Bro Prepaid modem too, all fed through a load balanced 2-node failover cluster but that's another post :)  Hirap kasi ma-disconnect nowadays.

If anyone's interested, I just switched from Sky Cable to Cignal Fibr. Let me know if you have questions.

Overall, I'm quite satisfied although I noticed some quirks:

a. The picture quality is a step-down from Sky Cable's HD channels. It seemed blurrier and darker.
b. This is known but resolution is up to 1080i only. My Sky Cable digibox was able to do 1080p.
c. Changing channels was slower and clunkier. Viewing the channel schedule had a tendency to cause the current channel to slow down or hang-up.
d. The interface is littered with ads may it be the perpetual Cignal logo, Menu interface and even changing the volume. Not a biggie but more of an annoyance.
e. This had no problems interfacing with my old Plasma TV. My Sky Cable digiboxes had problems with my plasma TV especially with the HD channels (severe pixelation which I think is attributed to some power issue).

If all you're after is the live/on-demand/on-the-go coverage of the NBA games, you can opt to stay with SkyCable and just subscribe to NBA League Pass. A full League Pass subscription for one season costs around P5,000, I think - or about P400+ per month (but it becomes cheaper if you subscribe later in the season or near the playoffs).

But if you're also interested in the content they show on NBA TV which I believe is not viewable on NBA League Pass here in the Philippines (e.g., NBA Action, Inside Stuff, NBA Gametime, Ten Before Tip, The Starters), these are available on NBA Premium and BTV c/o Cignal at the moment. They also air TNT's Inside the NBA.

I subscribed to both Cignal and NBA League Pass. Cignal's Plan 490 already has NBA Premium HD. Okay din sa Cignal 'yung coverage ng PBA in HD and Gilas games.

Has anyone here subscribed to Cignal throgh PLDT that still uses Coax (rg6) cables? I know that pldt uses LAN cables, but problem is the cabling in our house uses RG6 cables for Cable TV. It would be a pain to replace them. Is there a way to still utilize my rg6 cables if I subscribe through PLDT? I believe if you apply directly to Cignal, you’ll get a sat dish and will use rg6 cables.

Thanks!
