NexLogic to Provide Free Internet Access through Cable Providers

Local Internet Service Provider (ISP) NexLogic Telecommunication Network Inc. will be providing Free Internet Access through Cable TV providers in selected areas around the country. The free Internet access will be provided through a cable modem purchased by the customer for P2,999, it is a onetime purchase and does not have a monthly service fee.

Beginning this month, cable TV subscribers of Laguna Bay Vision and Telemarc Cable Laguna will have access to NexLogic’s free Internet service called Juan’s Internet Philippines (JIP), it provides free access to all general information, education and Philippine government websites (e.g. *.org, *.edu, *.gov.ph), as well as, to selected interesting content and useful services, such as skype, whatsapp and facebook messenger. The concept is similar to Free-To-Access Broadcast TV services, wherein one needs only buy a TV set. In JIP’s case, CATV subscribers only need a modem to access a wealth of content and services from sites like Wikipedia, TESDA, UP Open University, PhilHealth, SSS.

In addition to the freely accessible sites, subscribers have three gigabytes monthly allocation that they may use to browse commercial sites and on-line services, including popular ones such as Facebook and YouTube. Should users need more than the free allocation, they can avail of affordable prepaid packages. The prepaid packages, have no data usage caps and are time based, they will be available in 6-hour, 24-hour, 7-day and 30-day increments.

JIP will allow cable internet providers to provide internet service on top of their cable television service. According to Louis Casambre of NexLogic: “Cable TV providers are best positioned to deliver broadband internet because video channels are high bandwidth applications, internet via cable is the best way to deliver fixed line broadband after fiber optic cable.”

Broadband Internet access was recently cited as a basic human right by the United Nations Human Right Council in a report of the Special Rapporteur on the promotion and protection of the right to freedom of opinion and expression. “Internet connectivity in the Philippines is one of the most expensive in Asia and the digital divide is growing because of it. Those with internet access can reap its benefits while those who do not get left behind. Our aim with JIP is to bring down the cost of internet access and remove the financial barriers to broadband internet access” Mr. Casambre added.

Another UN Agency the World Bank have shown that for every 10 percent increase in broadband penetration results in a 1.38% increase in econoamic growth for low to medium income economies.

The availability of internet access devices are no longer an issue for NexLogic’s service. Their cable modems have built-in Wi-Fi, meaning that to access the internet, all user needs is a device with Wi-Fi access like a smart phone a tablet, or a laptop.

To ensure that cable companies are competitive with established ISPs and Telcos, NexLogic will maintain a constant subscriber to uplink ratio to guarantee that the network is never oversubscribed and can deliver constant internet speeds all the time. Over-subscription usually results in significant network slowdowns especially during peak hours. “There have been many complaints about the speed and cost of internet service, over-subscription is one of the reasons why the quality of retail Internet service in the Philippines the way it is, by maintaining service quality our partners will remain competitive with incumbent providers” Mr. Casambre said.

Eugene Toquero Vows to Give it His All at One: Hero's Dream

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Filipino fan-favorite Eugene Toquero will be making his fourteenth trip to the cage as a professional mixed martial arts competitor on 3 November, and he will be doing so in front of a passionate crowd in Yangon, Myanmar.

The fans at the iconic Thuwunna Indoor Stadium will be entertained by the flamboyant flyweight Toquero once more on the undercard of ONE: HERO’S DREAM when he takes on highly-touted Chinese prospect Ma Hao Bin.

Toquero dropped his last three outings and is in dire need of a win as he returns to action on 3 November.

The 36-year-old Filipino veteran lost two of his scheduled bouts in 2016, yielding to reigning ONE Flyweight World Champion Adriano Moraes via first-round submission in March before tasting the same fate at the hands of Team Lakay’s Danny Kingad in December.

Having his hand raised in triumph remained elusive to Toquero in April of this year when he bowed down to Indonesian standout Stefer Rahardian by way of unanimous decision.

As he desires to place himself on the winning track again, Toquero stressed that he has made some crucial adjustments to his preparation.

“I have made other adjustments. I train longer and harder now. I don’t want to be complacent because I am not getting any younger. This is a huge organization with a lot of very good martial artists from all over the world,” he said.

“I will give my best in this bout. I will leave everything on the line,” Toquero declared.

Toquero is confident that if his Chinese foe takes him lightly, it would be a catastrophic mistake.

“If my opponent did not train well, then I will eat him alive inside the cage. I am hungry for that win,” he stated.

The man standing in his re-entry to the winner’s column is Ma, who has strung together an impressive 7-1 professional record that includes three wins by submission and one by knockout.

In Ma’s recent trip to the ONE Championship cage, he submitted “The Wolf Of The Grasslands” Hexigetu in their flyweight affair at ONE CHAMPIONSHIP: SHANGHAI this past September, courtesy of a guillotine choke, with ten seconds remaining in round number two.

Toquero hopes that his experience will pay dividends when they meet across the cage, but he won't be paying too much attention to his adversary's game plan.

According to Toquero, the key to victory is in focusing on himself and making his A-game the priority.

"I never study my opponents. I do not care who they are because in Muay Thai and my amateur fights we never knew who our opponents were. We train in the gym and enhance our strengths," he shared.

With a fresh outlook and his back against the wall, Toquero is driven to break his losing spell and redeem his status as one of the most exciting flyweights in the Asian region.

"This time, l will make sure that my hand is raised as the winner. I am not going home with a loss on 3rd of November," he ended.
