Five ways to Get Free Access to the Internet

Ever wished to get connected to the internet immediately but no idea where or how? We hope that these five ways to get free internet access can help you in your dire need.

5ways-freeinternet

Sometimes the best things in life are free, and a speedy internet connection can be seen as a godsend when we need it the most. While we wish for telecoms to provide full free internet services such as Freedom Pop over in the US, we rely on these methods to access the world wide web for free and keep ourselves updated.

Subscribe to Free Internet Services. If you want it to be the safe and hassle-free way, then there’s the current Free internet/FB promos by the top telecoms in the country. Smart currently upgraded their free internet service to add Free FB on top of the already existent 30MB free data per day, and a one-time registration which resets your free internet counter back to 30MB was implemented instead of daily subscriptions. That one ends a little less than a month from now. Globe, on the other hand, only has Free FB.

Use an app. There are free apps on the stores that can allegedly provide free internet. One is Psiphon, an app on the Google Play store that can access everything on the Internet with its own VPNs and censorship circumvention tools, touted as ‘the best tool for accessing the open Internet‘.

Configure phone network settings. Another way to circumvent and bypass the current network restrictions is to change your APN settings. There are a lot of those floating around other phone-centric websites. Tried a few of them before, and they work. If you’re not careful enough, chances are you’ll get your phone number blocked or the network will reverse your settings back to the original.

Use free Wifi in establishments. Malls, fastfood chains, coffee shops, and restaurants now offer free internet service as part of its consumer perks to lure customers. This seems to be a top choice for students when they choose an establishment to stay on for reviews and group meetings. Some can be accessed upon a purchase, others by just visiting alone. SM Supermalls lets you access its WiFi connection for strictly an hour everyday, and Ayala Malls needs your Facebook credentials to access its free internet service.

Scan your neighborhood for unlocked WiFi connections. No, seriously. If you have a neighbor whose unsecured WiFi connection is within your home’s reach, it’s your best bet to access the web without leaving your home too far. Don’t forget to ask for permission to gain access to it as a sign of courtesy.

Using the internet has always been a right for everyone, and these are some of the ways you can get them at your fingertips. Did we miss anything? Let us know in the comments section below.

    1. Acquire a 7/11 Rewards Card you can have 15 mins free internet for every 1 point you acquire which is worth 50 Php (this is good if you always purchase goods at 7/11 )

    2. Buy the Coffee bean Swirl Card for 195 Php to gain wifi access to all Coffee bean shops (This is a For life access so it’s quite a steal and its fast) no purchase is required promise

    lupit ng mga suggestion. Ang hirap isipin ng mga naisip mo sa column mo na ‘to. hahahaha

  4. Avatar for psiphonfilter psiphonfilter says:

    Tanga, hindi pang illegal internet access ang Psiphon.

    Sabi nga ng mga creators nila, ginawa nila yan para sa kapakanan ng mga naninirahan sa mga bansa na “kalaban ng internet” tulad ng Tsina.

    Really? Yugatech is now endorsing not-so-legal means?

    Well at least you warned everyone, “If you’re not careful enough, chances are you’ll get your phone number blocked.”

    Really? I’m pretty sure I’ve seen the Telco’s (Globe, Sun and Smart) advertising on this site. How would you feel if you were the Telco and you see this article?

    Really?

    • Avatar for lawrence lawrence says:

      Carl Lamiel, sana naman bago mo na-post ang article, inisip mo na isa sa mga bumubuhay sa site na ito ay ang ads, kung saan ay madalas na merong ads ang Smart, Globe at Sun.

      Tsk…

  11. Avatar for Roy Roy says:

    The plan was to write an article about hacks. Then realizing they’re not really good at it and that it’s a violation in Google’s Webmaster guidelines, they came up with this.

    Misleading.

  21. Avatar for accel accel says:

    Wow, another self-centered “article” from one of Yugatech’s incompetent contributors. No wonder why this site’s credibility has gone way down the sink!

  22. Avatar for anonymous anonymous says:

    this is not a good article, the 3rd and last options are illegal and know your own risk… you should apply REVIEW process on your articles and not just post for the sake of your own goodness and contribution… geesh have some civilized writings!

  23. Avatar for anon anon says:

    ‘Using the internet has always been a right for everyone’

    Sense of entitlement.

    At kung gumagamit man kayo ng illegal, wag naman ipangalandakan.

      are you stupid? haha alam mo ba ibig sabihin ng “hacking”? bigla akong natawa at nasura sa nabasa ko sayo

    • Avatar for bryan_mmx bryan_mmx says:

      agree with GNx007

      naawa ako sa mga real hackers. sobrang na degrade ang term ng hacking, to the point na pati yun naiwan naka log in ang facebook at kinalikot ng ibang tao “hacked” na ang tawag.

    • Avatar for asterisk asterisk says:

      @bryan_mmx, how do you define hacking? and what do you know about hacking? baka puro wimax lang alam mo, b0b0.

  29. Avatar for Miguel Cristiano Miguel Cristiano says:

    Is circumventing even legal? Hahaha. Another way to get free access to the Net is to go to school. Yes, literally to study and gain access to the school’s Net. And ofcourse, to land a good job to pay for your bills. (That’s not free anymore. Anyway, I hope you got my point) Haha. Cheezy, but it’s reality.
