PLDTs average fixed download speeds have more than doubled from 27.44 Mbps to 67.91 Mbps in the same period. This was according to analysis by Ookla® of Speedtest Intelligence® data. Speed in the homes is strengthened by our ongoing fiber rollout, while 5G continues to lift the wireless experience, noted Alfredo S. Panlilio, PLDT Inc. and Smart Communications President and CEO. In Ooklas latest Speedtest Global Index, the Philippines mobile average download speeds were at 31.98 Mbps, whereas average fixed broadband speeds were at 59.73 Mbps. The latest results placed the country at 77th and 65th, respectively, and represent significant improvements from the April 2021 rankings (7 places and 15 places up, respectively). The significant progress in ranking the past months is due primarily to the governments all-out support in expediting the release of LGU permits required for the fast-tracking of improvement of telco infrastructure, according to the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC).
