Tony goes to Cebu City for internet. It is about 30-45 min drive from our house
Minglanilla is about 20 min away; i don't know the distance, but I believe the distance is the same as Cebu City. Minglanilla is south and Cebu City is North.
Tony tried to use Smart Bro and Globe in our house and reception was not good. This is a modem attached to the laptop. PLDT would be ideal if PLDT is willing to install in our area. We use Smart Communication for our cell phones and Smart Bro for broadband but broadband service is not consistent.
