I`m not sure about Davao Peter as I have never been there..
All I can suggest is that you research Globe and Smart broadband wireless connections and which one`s work best in the specific area of Davao that you are interested in.
Where I live we have a Globe tower visible from my house which was built 2 years ago so we signed up for a Globe 2mb wireless modem. They say that it may be upgraded to 4G sometime soon.. Here in the P.I "Soon" could mean another 2 years.
Before the tower was erected we had no Globe signal and were stuck with the smart dongle prepaid..
In Panglao (Alona area) its pretty much the opposite) so signal strength depends on closely defined areas in relation to COM towers and of course the number of subscribers in your area.
I just did a quick search and Smart 4G results look pretty good (Compared with what I get)..
Not sure of cost for 4G..
