PLDT Home announces MyOwnWiFi, the country’s first-ever service that provides a dedicated second internet connection at half the price. The service is now available exclusively to PLDT Home customers.
With MyOwnWiFi, existing PLDT Home subscribers can get a second internet connection at half the price of their primary connection with the same speed. It’s perfect for households that need separate connections for high-bandwidth activities.
One good example of this is families who need one dedicated connection for work-from-home, and another for online schooling, both of which need fast and reliable internet.
Here’s a quick guide on the speed and prices when you avail of a MyOwnWiFi plan.
