    Hi. I posted about these in the thread about FilProduct. To summarise:

    VERY expensive (we pay 4499 for 15MBPS)
    You have to pay for the aerial installation (cost us P8k)
    Rarely achieve above 10mbps and as good as that is rare
    They no longer have a Dumaguete office and work out of Bayawan, but were responsive to the one email I sent about poor service (not that this improved things)
    Moving to FilProduct 20mbps as soon as cable is installed at less than half the cost

    I've used Airlink for nearly three years and have been very happy with the service. Where I live there is no other alternative available, and so, while it is expensive compared to other services, I am glad to have the option available. From what I understand Airlink will work from anywhere so long as they can achieve line-of-sight visibility to one of their routers, and they will install a mast on your roof to be sure that they achieve that. I'm paying 4499 for 15Meg service and my speed almost always tests between 20 to 25M. The few occasions where I have noticed my speed was low, I sent them an email and they replied almost immediately and fixed the issue. I would certainly recommend them.
