A few days ago, I found something astounding with our bayanDSL connection. While downloading some stuff on Bittorent, I saw my download speed was around 70-80+ kbps! For all I know, your subscription just up to 384 Kbps (roughly about up to 48 kbps download speed). I did some answers from the Web. According to pinoydsl.net and tipidpc.com, bayanDSL will have speed updates for their DSL subscriptions, starting November 1. For us 384 Kpbs users, there will be an upgrade up to 768 kbps and SOD (Speed on Demand) will be 1 Mbps. Technically, it’s still not November 1, but our household already enjoying this early Christmas gift from bayanDSL. That means more Linux ISO downloads for me, he he he… 
The Proofs:

Speakeasy.net Result:
UPDATE 1: It seems to be just a test. As of today (Nov. 1), it returned to 384 kbps speeds 
I think we need to call up bayanDSL on the second week of November to avail of the speed upgrade… >:(
UPDATE 2: We already requested for the Speed Upgrade, as of today (Nov. 9), we now experiencing 768 kbps speeds
When did you start having broadband? The last time we talked, you were only on dial up.
I’m waiting for new year. We’ll be eligible for a free bandwidth upgrade then. We’ll be at least having 1 Mbps then.
We had bayanDSL since July
We subscribed to plan 1199 (300 for the phone + 899 for the 384 kbps DSL). But the Speed Upgrade just recently started, and the transition was fast, within 18-24 hours from request 
I am currently using PLDT Plan 990 (phone and 384kps DSL). I wanted a bayantel service but there is no offering here in Pasay. They say after service of bayantel is better.
Inggit ako sa speed increase mo. Nagdownload ako ng OpenCD 4-5 hours akong nag-intay.
hi there royalflare
correction pala, yup to 1.2 Mbps yung Speed on Demand 
how about cable internet?
Alam kong defunct na yung OpenCD, superseded na siya ng OpenDisc Project…
kaiins ganun speed ko nun ngayn bumalik n nmn sa old 368kbps, naexperienced niyo ba?
oo, napansin ko rin, sa totoo lang, mga dalawang buwan na. kaya balako kong ipaputol na itong bayandsl. dalawang beses na rin akong email sa kanila kasama yung screencaps ng speedtests, traceroute at pings, wala pa rin aksyon, nabibwisit na ako… They suck now!!! >:(
san area po kau? papunta na tech samin sana mafix…
Project 4 area kami. Napakapangit na ang direct download speed ko. Pati SOD ‘di na gumagana. Akala ko nga may problema ethernet adapter ng PC ko, wala rin. Kahapon nga, tumawag ako for follow-up sa http problem ko, sabi raw ng reply na sa email ko, wala naman ako ng nakita sa inbox ko, kahit pa sa spam folder ko. Tama sobra, sobra na, palitan na! >:(
