Check your Globe Telecom internet speed with a free, accurate speed test. Whether you're on Globe At Home fiber, prepaid broadband, or HomeSURF plans, see your real download and upload speeds instantly.
Globe Telecom is one of the two dominant telecommunications companies in the Philippines, competing head-to-head with PLDT across mobile, broadband, and fiber services. Through its home internet brand Globe At Home, Globe serves millions of Filipino households with fiber broadband, prepaid home WiFi, and postpaid broadband plans.

With Globe's significant investments in its fiber network expansion and 5G infrastructure, speeds have improved substantially in recent years — but real-world performance still varies by location, plan, and network conditions. Running a speed test is the most reliable way to know exactly what you're getting.

Globe organizes its home internet offerings into several categories:
Globe At Home Fiber (formerly Globe Unli Fiber) uses FTTH (Fiber to the Home) technology in areas where Globe has completed fiber rollout. These plans offer the most consistent and fastest speeds available from Globe:
| Plan | Download Speed | Upload Speed | Monthly Fee (approx.) |
|---|---|---|---|
| At Home Plan 1299 | 50 Mbps | 50 Mbps | ₱1,299 |
| At Home Plan 1699 | 100 Mbps | 100 Mbps | ₱1,699 |
| At Home Plan 2499 | 200 Mbps | 200 Mbps | ₱2,499 |
| At Home Plan 3499 | 500 Mbps | 500 Mbps | ₱3,499 |
| At Home GigaPower | 1,000 Mbps | 1,000 Mbps | Contact Globe |
Like PLDT Fibr, Globe At Home Fiber plans are symmetric — upload speed equals download speed. This makes them well-suited for video calls, remote work, gaming, and content creation.
Globe At Home Prepaid WiFi runs on the Globe LTE and 5G mobile network, providing internet without requiring a fixed fiber installation. Popular among renters and in areas without fiber coverage:
Under normal conditions, Globe At Home Fiber should deliver speeds close to your subscribed plan during off-peak hours:
| Plan Speed | Off-Peak Expected | Peak (8–11 PM) Expected | Local Ping |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 Mbps | 47–52 Mbps | 38–50 Mbps | 5–15 ms |
| 100 Mbps | 95–105 Mbps | 80–100 Mbps | 5–12 ms |
| 200 Mbps | 190–210 Mbps | 160–200 Mbps | 4–10 ms |
| 500 Mbps | 470–510 Mbps | 420–500 Mbps | 4–10 ms |
Results consistently below 70% of your plan speed during off-peak hours warrant a service complaint.
Globe prepaid WiFi performance is more variable than fiber:
| Network Type | Typical Download | Typical Upload | Latency |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5G (NSA/SA) | 50–300 Mbps | 15–80 Mbps | 15–35 ms |
| 4G LTE-A | 20–80 Mbps | 5–20 Mbps | 25–50 ms |
| 4G LTE | 5–30 Mbps | 2–10 Mbps | 35–70 ms |
| 3G fallback | 1–5 Mbps | 0.5–2 Mbps | 80–150 ms |
Globe's fiber network uses GPON (Gigabit-capable Passive Optical Network) technology, which means multiple households share the downstream bandwidth of a single optical distribution network. During the evening when many subscribers are simultaneously streaming and gaming, the shared capacity gets strained.
What you can do:
Globe provides an ONT (Optical Network Terminal) and usually a separate Wi-Fi router. Common issues:
Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz is crowded in dense Philippine residential areas (condominiums, subdivisions) where dozens of networks from neighboring units compete on the same channels:
The yellow SC/APC fiber patch cord connecting your wall outlet to the Globe ONT is fragile. A damaged, bent, or loosely seated connector can cause speed drops and intermittent disconnections:
For Globe At Home Prepaid WiFi (LTE/5G routers):
The honest answer is: it depends on your specific location. Both Globe and PLDT have invested heavily in fiber expansion, and coverage quality varies block by block in Philippine cities.
General observations as of 2025:
| Metric | Globe At Home | PLDT Home Fibr |
|---|---|---|
| Fiber availability | Broad NCR + major cities | Broad NCR + major cities |
| Plan pricing | Comparable to PLDT | Comparable to Globe |
| Avg. off-peak fiber speed | Matches plan speed | Matches plan speed |
| Avg. peak congestion | Moderate | Moderate |
| Mobile network (backup) | Globe/TM LTE/5G | Smart/Sun LTE/5G |
| Customer satisfaction (2024 NTC data) | Comparable | Comparable |
The best strategy is to ask neighbors in your specific building or street which ISP they use and how it performs. Real-world local experience trumps any national benchmark.

Visit InternetSpeedTest.net and click Start. The test measures your download speed, upload speed, ping, and jitter in about 30–45 seconds. No Globe account or login is required.
For a Globe At Home Plan 1699 (100 Mbps fiber), results of 90–105 Mbps download and 90–105 Mbps upload via ethernet during off-peak hours indicate excellent service. For Globe Prepaid WiFi, results of 20–50 Mbps on LTE are typical in good signal areas in Metro Manila and major cities.
Globe At Home fiber uses shared GPON infrastructure, which means the available bandwidth is divided among all active subscribers connected to the same OLT port. Evening hours — particularly 8–11 PM — see peak simultaneous usage from neighbors streaming, gaming, and making video calls, which reduces speeds for everyone on the same network segment. Globe must add capacity (split OLT ports or add new fiber nodes) to resolve this at scale.
