What is SmartBro?
Smart Bro is the amazing wireless broadband service from Smart. It is a high-speed broadband internet connection that uses the nationwide cellular network of Smart to wirelessly deliver internet service to a subscriber’s PC. The "wireless" connection is from the nearest Smart Cellular Base Station to the sub’s location where a Smart Bro antenna will be installed. There will still be in-house cabling from the antenna to the sub’s PC. The Smart Bro technology is called Broadband Wireless Access (BWA).
Using the cellular phone network of Smart, Smart Bro antennas are installed in a specific location in your house that receives a certain radio frequency transmitted from the nearest Smart Cellular base station. Provided that the antenna is at "line-of-sight" to receive the strongest signal possible, it will allow any household in the Philippines to now enjoy a high speed internet connection without the need of a physical cable/phone line, which is several times faster than any dial-up internet connection.
Regular Plan will be at P999.00 (all in, inclusive of VAT).
