We share the roads with not just fellow riders, but other vehicles and pedestrians as well. How we must maintain dicipline, safety and responsibility for our property and when we take on the roads with our motorcycles.

Have you ever wondered what's the new Globe Wimax BM622i user password is?

BM622i

New BM622i modems being issued and released by Globe has new user passwords. To date, there is no known exploit to hack the admin user for this new set of modems that I am aware of. If your BM622 modem is not a patched firmware, unlocking its admin settings still works as I have posted here before. Now a new generation of modems such as BM622i has new passwords to begin with, the old user-user combo trick doesn't work anymore.

So have you ever wondered what's the password?

How to troubleshoot Garmin GPS Navigator on No-Name China GPS

Splash Screen booting up

Ever wondered buying cheaper GPS devices from your recent trip to China and later found out it can't get a decent satellite lock here in the Philippines? Here's what I did to workaround the problem.

I am refering to this no-name China GPS you can buy online from your favorite China goods seller. This particular device used for this guide is a 5 incher running a custom firmware and win ce 5. It comes preloaded with Garmin Mobile XT version 5.010W.

When I fired up Garmin it loads a script Garmin.mscr which preloads Port Splitter 1.20 before it loads the Garmin software. It takes forever when detecting satellites to lock into within Garmin. I have tried every ports listed and no luck.

Why Globe Customer Service Sucks?

First BM622i

The Shaman have been a Globe Wimax subscriber for more than a year. I made several Globe Wimax Experience Reviews a year ago here, here and here. I have two active accounts, mine and my sister's. Three weeks ago, we reported about the drastic slowdown of bandwidth giving us a pathetic 10-100kbps on my sister's account that we are paying for 1 mbps.

From our experience. Subscribers call on the hotline at 211 to report technical and customer service issues. Customer Service Representatives then files a report where a Job Number will be generated and passed on to Sub-Contractor On-Site Technicians that visits your service address to fix whatever there is to fix.
