How to Prevent 800MB Bandwidth Limit of Globe?

Many Globe users are still under the spell of Fair Usage Policy (FUP). Globe promos are displayed in the ads as unlimited internet but in fact, the unlimited connection has conditions. One is (according to the FUP), you can only browse using the offered speed until 800MB data consumption; more than that, your internet speed will throttle to 2G speed which is as good as the internet speed back in 2004. Why can Globe just say that their unlimited internet is only good for 800MB?

In order for us to prevent this from happening with our unlimited internet, we have to use VPN or any bypassing tools. New methods are discussed in this Trick to Bypass 1GB Bandwidth Limit of Globe FUP post. Rather than adding this new method to the post, I have opted to create a new one because the comments are already too long and some users cannot read past through all those queries and feedbacks. Some users also have difficulties using the Proxifier included in the post because it is not compatible with their device. Moreover, this new method can be used to revive the 4G speed of your throttled internet subscription, you don't have to wait until midnight to be reverted to normal speed. Thanks to the developers of UltraSurf, it's a great help for Globe users. This tutorial uses the www.globe.com.ph APN which is slow for browsing but fast for downloading files. It will be better if you only use this app when you are about to download big files or stream videos.

Update February 12, 2016: Use Psiphon with MyGlobe Internet settings in the Trick to Bypass Globe Bandwidth Limit 

This method can also work even without load , you can check the version 2.0 of this tutorial: How to have FREE Internet Without Load for All Network Torrents Capable.

How to Fix Canon iP2770 Orange LED Blinking 16 or 13 Times?

I had been refilling my Canon iP2770 and lately I encountered a problem (after refilling the cartridges) where the orange LED indicator is blinking rapidly for 16 times a cycle. If you happen to also experience this or in other cases 13 times, that means your cartridge is being read as fully consumed. Gladly, buying a new Canon 810 or 811 cartridge is not an option yet. You can still use the old ones and refill it up to its lifespan.

Trick on How to Bypass Globe's 1GB Limit on Bandwidth Usage Without Throttling to 2G?

All Globe users who availed of the unlimited data plan with the telecom company are all frustrated with the 1GB everyday bandwidth limit. That's why it is called unli internet because it was supposed to give users the unlimited surfing experience especially in downloading. But under Globe's Fair Usage Policy, once you have consumed all your 1GB allocation, your internet connection speed will be reverted to 2G (which is way SLOW) and you have to wait until midnight to regain your net's speed. But users cannot be suppressed, they had a workaround in this setup. Downloading and surfing is now unlimited! I had used the trick and I am quite satisfied that I no longer receive notice of 2G throttling from Globe even if I download big files or stream videos all day!  Updated February 12, 2016. Proxifier is still working for some users, you only have to use the CDC method to connect. Psiphon is working using default MyGlobe Internet settings, just scroll down.

The trick to bypass the limit is quite easy is to use. I am doing this under my Globe Postpaid Unlimited Internet for Php999/month and I haven't been notified of any violation in their terms nor being billed for extra charges. It uses MyGlobe Connect settings instead of the Globe Postpaid settings. Please note that the difference between the two is their APNs, MyGlobe Connect uses the APN:www.globe.com.ph while the Globe Postpaid uses APN:internet.globe.com.ph. For prepaid users, the default connection settings is Globe Prepaid with APN:http.globe.com.ph

Fix Internet Download Manager Fake Serial Notice (with Updated Installer)

Internet Download Manager is one of the most reliable download manager out there because it is user-friendly and it can accelerate your download 5 times faster than your native browser downloader. And the best part of it is, you can resume your download whenever your network connection is interrupted or you experience an unexpected shutdown of your computer. IDM accelerates your download via multi-threaded downloading thus saving your download time. One of the efficient feature of IDM is, it can download online audios and videos thus giving you the tool to download those audio and video streaming with no need for DL link!

But most of the internet users out there cannot afford to pay for this great downloader, so many resort to its cracked versions. Once the network detects that their IDM is using a fake serial number, it will give an annoying pop-up notice every 15 minutes. Urgh!

How to Solve "Incompatible Cartridge" in HP D1660 Printer?

If you are engaged in refilling your ink either personally or through a refilling station, you can encounter this problem with HP printers. The new HP printers are now equipped with cartridges which have micro chips inside that inform users with the ink level or if the cartridge is refilled or depleted. I had this problem when I bought HP D1660 printer and I refilled the introductory cartridges (Black and Tri-color HP 60). You should never refill the introductory cartridge that comes with your printer if you want to use your printer for long. I know that D1660 is the cheapest HP printer around, but still it costs you money to buy that right? So, don't do what I did if you don't want to spend more money in service repairs. Buy a new cartridge first to replace the introductory cartridge and help yourself with the refilling.

I haven't used my printer for two months and the cartridges inside were read as incompatible, I tried to replace it repeatedly to the printer but the problem persist. So I gave up and brought it to repairs. And the technician informed me that the cartridges are no longer reusable and I have to buy a new one. I bought one and printed pages until the cartridge was drained and the printer read it as depleted even if I refilled it. Again, another cartridge went to trash. Once your ink cartridge was read as "Incompatible Cartridge" or "Depleted or Used" by your HP printer, it can no longer be rescued nor reused, don't give hope on that and say bye-bye already. Even the ones that buy used cartridges will not spend even a peso for something that can no longer be recycled. It's already in it's "disposable" condition.

How to Uninstall Linux (Dual Boot with XP)?

I had tried Ubuntu and Kubuntu on my ACER laptop with 256 MB RAM (dual boot with Windows). The cover says that the minimum requirement is 256 MB RAM but as I had observed, the speed is not optimized. People are suggesting that I should better install an Xubuntu, the lighter version of Ubuntu which can ran in a 128 MB RAM. So, how was I able to uninstall these distros under the Windows environment? The steps will only take about a minute or two.

What you need:
1.Your Windows XP Bootable CD.

Procedure:
Deleting the partition.
1. Run your computer in Windows mode.
2. Right-Click My Computer, Press G. You will be taken to the Computer Management.
3. Click Disk Management (found at the left-side list). Choose the partition you alloted for your Linux OS. Right-Click and choose Format.
4. Put your Windows CD on the optical drive and Restart Windows. Boot through the CD.

Deleting the GRUB Boot Loader.
1. When the Windows installation appear, choose Repair. A command prompt will appear then press 1 when it asks for the installation number, Enter.
2. If you do not have a password just press Enter; if you have, enter your Adminstrative password.
3. Enter "fixmbr" (without the quotations) and you're done. Exit and Restart (remember to remove the CD). The GRUB Loader will no longer appear during startup.

Win32 virus?

My Aunt’s laptop got infected with virus on which the name remains unknown to me. Somebody suggested to me that it is the Win32 virus and it is currently hitting the internet shops in my province.

Here are the symptoms:
1.When the computer loads, the taskbar and desktop icons are nowhere to be seen. Only the wallpaper and the mouse cursor appear.

2.Right-click is disabled but I can open the task manager by pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL. I can make new tasks and run the program from the NEW TASK button. But when I run the explorer.exe, a message will appear that the execution of this task will harm my computer and the action is restricted. But after few minutes of ignoring the message and accessing the explorer.exe, the taskbar will now reveal along with the desktop icons.

3.I cannot use the internet and the security settings are not accessible, they cannot be clicked and the areas are grayed.

4.When you access the task manager processes, you will find Explorer.EXE or EXPLORER.EXE, SVCHOST.EXE, they are all in CAPS except for a few.

I wasn’t able to resolve this issue. I booted through the XP CD already. After repairing the system, it will load normally but after restart, the problem is back.

The solution I had done is to back up the files and install a fresh XP.

The virus is so difficult and I wasn’t able to know where the problem is coming from. I searched the net but the solutions are not effective. If you got any suggestions on this matter, use the comment form.
