PLDT, Globe, and Smart - My home internet network setup
Hey everyone, just wanted to share my home internet network setup. Maybe some of you can get a few ideas from it. This setup has been working really well for me so far.
As shown in the diagram, I’m using PLDT, Globe, and Smart as my ISPs at home. My main connection is PLDT Fiber (1Gbps), which comes with a modem that has a built-in failover feature. So basically, what it does is it automatically switches to Smart LTE whenever my fiber connection goes down.
My secondary line is a Globe Prepaid Fiber, which I can activate anytime. It has no monthly fees and was part of Globe’s first fiber prepaid promo, so I basically got it for free.
All of these connect to my TP-Link Omada router, which serves as my main router. It’s been solid and has all the features I need such as failover, remote access, load balancing, QoS, and strong hardware performance. It also has a USB slot that lets me tether my Globe mobile phone as a third backup connection.
For Wi-Fi, I’m using a TP-Link BE3600 WiFi 7 router configured as an access point. This way, I still get its advanced features like MLO, a dedicated IoT SSID, and the benefits of the latest Wi-Fi 7 technology.
The best part? All my backups are completely free — no monthly recurring fees and free installation. How? Got them during promotions where they offer free add ons and installations.
What do you guys think of this setup?
