Using K600i. I'm also experiencing slow and unstable connection with Globe sometimes. Most of the times, after several minutes of 3G connection, it drops back to GPRS. Same with Smart. And BTW, I just checked yesterday, it seems that "full internet access" is now available for prepaid subscribers. Unlike before you can only use port 80. They still block outgoing port 25 except for their SMTP servers, so better use SMTP w/ SSL on port 465 if it is available on your email provider. Maybe Globe finally enabled full internet access for their prepaid APN in preparation for the iPhone launch. Regarding the configuration of the mode, there were several posts on the list months ago.
