Internet 'chui' and reason 'a bit illegal'

A new product of students' ideas (SV) but it brings big losses for businesses and turns students into low-class citizens with the crimes they themselves claim: " a bit illegal ".

Only 30,000 VND / month can connect to the internet home, can be 24/24. This is the discovery of students of the @ era.

Net is becoming the daily needs of students.

30 thousand VND, the price to pay for internet connection "underground" is really too sweet. But is the consequence that these students suffer from such sweetness?

The cost to register for using Internet services of FPT or VDC seems to be too much for students. Therefore, students tend to use the Internet to "connect" through the Internet store hub port

Connecting the network and reasoning "is a bit illegal"

Gone are the days when the internet connection home was a luxury only for the "aristocrats". Now even students with the most normal living conditions can "design" themselves a home computer with super cheap prices.

It is not difficult to find student accommodation areas with 100% coverage, such as HITC - Cau Giay, Phung Khoang - Thanh Xuan, Duong Quang Ham, Hanoi University of Technology .

The network of "underground" is really becoming a new trend of homestay students, especially students with high demand for internet use such as information technology, journalism and architecture students .

In order to register for using FPT or VDC's internet service, each person has to go to the post office to sign a contract, it takes an initial investment of about 1 million VND, must pay monthly subscription fees and download fees depending on the level use.

This cost seems to be too much for students. So students are inclined to use the Internet "to", connecting via the Internet store's hub port, because the procedure is very simple, the price is extremely soft.

In addition to a "sentimental" verbal agreement, they only lost an additional 250,000 initial wire and 30 - 100 thousand freight per month. That price is really too attractive for students away from home.

M.Eng, VNU Information Technology Department, in Lane 26A / 175, HITC said: Iternet is an essential part of our IT people 's lives.

My online needs are great because I have a separate webside that works quite well. I chose to connect this way because it is much cheaper than registering to use the official service, and not losing cumbersome procedures. Although it was "a bit illegal", it was convenient.

Not only M.Kien but also many students also took that excuse to explain this "slightly illegal" action. M.Linh (CCBC - boarding house in Nguyen Phu Sac - Hanoi) said, "My job must regularly surf the web to search for (search) for information. Because I am going to do part - time, I can only online at night.Every month I only have 60 thousand, just safe and convenient ".

In addition to the reasons for studying there are many other reasons, as is the case of VCB (Phung Khoang - Thanh Xuan). Xom of Bang has 6 guys, every guy is electronic.

Instead of paying a lot of money to net stores, they donated money to rent a gate in the net near their home. On average, they only have to pay 30 ng / person / month.

As students who have network needs, we have visited many Internet stores. Except for the stores that have run out of ports, most of the rest agree to lease the gate with the price from 60-120,000 VND / month. They even have a full service (selling wires and installing them at home).

Mr. PTC, the owner of Internet shop Lane 175-HITC said, his store has 26 machines, the remaining number of ports he rented like that. It is worth mentioning that not only students use this service but also some agencies and collectives also contact Mr. PTC to install Internet for 3-5 machines.

You are being used by net shippers

The above students only see the immediate benefit of low subscription fee and convenient use. But they haven't figured out all the problems that will come later. If found by the service provider, they will be subject to penalties.

Talking to Ms. Tran Hai Yen, representative of VDC, we were provided with lots of interesting and unexpected information.

" In fact, the last subscription fee of VDC is only VND 28,000 per month. Compared to the average usage rate of students, they only have to pay from 40-50 thousand per month, or not more than 100 thousand. Using such official services, students will enjoy many benefits such as modem promotion, subscription fee reduction . ".

But by lazy to learn, many people, especially students, are convinced that the internet "cheaper" than the legal internet. The procedure for subscribing to ADSL subscribers is very simple, with just a ID card and a certificate of university students, you can completely own a legitimate ADSL subscriber.

Ms. Tran Hai Yen added: " With Internet cafes using VDC's MegaVNN transmission line, the re-transmission of the line in any form is illegal ".

Calculating in a simple way, just let the tenants rent 5-6 ports which are completely free of monthly subscription fees for VDC.

According to Ms. Yen, " the number of losses can be very large, but now VDC still has a lot of difficulties to be able to accurately statistics. If you want statistics, you need to have a wide market survey. At the same time, it must coordinate with the Department of Post and Telecommunications HN and PC13 to prevent this phenomenon .

Hopefully the students who are using the Internet "go" will soon be aware of its downside.
