Much will depend exactly where you are. If you are on or near the National Highway, you may be able to get wired DSL starting at about P1,000 per month. If you are further out you can probably get SmartBro wireless Internet -- sort of like WiMax -- for the same cost. If you are too far out, too far from a Smart cell tower, you may struggle to get any Internet. When you get the real information, please post it here. Good luck!
