Hello. I work under the Philippine Active Geodetic Network (PAGeNet) of the National Mapping and Resource Information Authority (NAMRIA). Our work deals with the use of prepaid modem Wi-Fis (w/ SIM cards) so that communications from the remote site to our data center are established.
May I ask in line with RA 11934, a.k.a. “SIM Registration Act”, is there a way to register such modem Wi-Fi SIMs in a group account? We currently have 36 modems (23 Smart/PLDT and 13 Globe) that are remotely placed all over the Philippines. Could the SIMs be registered under an entity, rather an individual? Thanks
