On the beginning Thailand looked like very exciting place but everything has its own limit.

After 2 years I got extremely bored because wherever you go everything looks same.

So, I found out that I could download bunch of series. One season is approx. 12 episodes.

Before sleeping I watch one, two or 3 episodes every day.

However, Gollumscave is right. I don't pay for my 4 Mbt package for skype, facebook and reading online news

OK Here we are

I just called TOT.

I ask the guy: Why are you slowing down the torrents? Please don't check my router because it's working perfect and the internet is perfect but torrents are slow.

The guy: This is a new policy of TOT. We are slowing down especially bit torrent bla bla bla.

Me: Will you continue implementing your new policy forever and ever?

The Guy: I am not sure but we may have some good news for bittorrent users soon.

Me: Could I know when the good news might happen?

The Guy: I am sorry but I am not sure.

Me: Thank you. I will wait for 1 more month and if you still use your new policy I will have to break the contract because this service is not what I signed the contract for.

The Guy: I am sorry sir.

Me: Thank you for your explanation.

The Guy: Thank you for your understanding Sir.

Me for myself: I didn't say I understand this situation but I am thankful that somebody finally explained and said that the problem exists so :jap:

Guys that's it.I am going to wait one more month and meanwhile I will be checking 3BB service. If the problem still exists and 3BB is Ok I'm gonna break the contract, move to another place where I can have 3BB internet connection because 3BB can't reach me here. Sad but true.

Still only getting 10kbps download from bittorrent if im lucky

Seems like everyone has fixed there download speeds?

I phone TOT and they say no we not block torrent?

why did i use to get 200+kbps before and now nearly stopped?

Just upgraded from 3mb to 6mb and that did bu%$er all!

You are right.

I have exactly the same question: Everyone has fixed there download speeds?

I use true and it is very slow for the last 4 days. Torrent download is about 2kb/s which is worse than dial-up. I restarted my modem for several times, but nothing changes. Not only the download is slow, but the searching also, some web pages don't even load. I tried to call them, but their line is chronically busy.

Try with this number 1100 and then press 9.

It worked for me well.

I just called them and they checked my router and they said that everything was OK with TOT and that I should have called the torrent site what I couldn't believe. I said that I had been downloading from many torrent sites and that nobody had any problems except TOT users and then she told me to change my torrent program version.

Guys could anybody tell me what the problem is?

I noticed that this forum topic is slowly dieing.

Do you guys still have the same problem?

Uhh guys,

I've just been to TOT office.

They wanted to check my router but they couldn't because I turned it off this morning when I was going to work this morning.

I said to them that everyone had the same problem in Thailand and if they had any problem with the system but they answered negatively.

So I got a couple of telephone numbers who to call and they will check my router. They also said that if they can't find anything a technician would visit me and try to solve my problem at my house.

I think that I can sense where their help is leading to.

At the end they will find nothing and that will be it.

I am just sure about one. My router is 100% good.

However the problem still exists and I am not happy, opposite I am quite unhappy.

This is ridiculous but all we can say is a big :jap:

It is TOT who must follow its own contract at the first place (provide the full speed to the end-user, or to accept the tech.fault with the proper explanations). They want a demo? Run any traffic-meter with the website based NOT in TH.

If they break their own contract - why must WE follow that?

Yap mate, but when they see a farang they just turn the farang switch off and then farang can speak as much as he want but the switch is off and they just politely.

All farang can do then is :jap: and pay the bill otherwise he will be considered for a bad man

My Emule doesn't working proplely, It connected but it can't dowload.

Tomorropw I'll go to the company for pay the bill, and I'll demand explanations. If they didn't restore the connection like as before, this is the last bill I will pay.And of course I'll change the company.

Yap, that would be great if it could be so easy to change internet provider in Thailand.

I live in a house and I had to, I emphasize I HAD TO sign a one year contract with them.

The worse thing is that if I want to end the contract I have to pay I think about 3000B.

7 months are left for me

Here it is an useful tip:

If you don't live in a house but in a condo the contract is at least 6 months.

Even they say that's not true be sure it is. Don't let them make sign one year contract!!! It's the same with Maxnet

Hog Head,

I see. I just arrived from work and my dwd speed doesn't exceed 50kb/s, yesterday it was 350kb/s and day before yesterday 10.

The things are opposite with one of my colleagues. He says yesterday was terrible slow.

In my opinion it means that TOT has been definitely trying to work something out the problem.

However, the users should continue complaining.

I'm sure TOT is not so silly to lose lots of customers as well as $$$

Hi all!

I had problems with downloading but it seems everything's OK now.

Here it is a good thing which could help and it's about removing fake seeders and speeds up the download:

http://ipfilterupdater.sourceforge.net/

1. Choose your torrent client from the list and download the little program which is there given

2. Turn off your torrent program and prompt file with the extension .bat

3. DOS window will open and download something(just leave it, when it finishes it will disappear)

4. Turn on your torrent program and continue downloading.

5. Enjoy mates!

... and who knows how many dangerous farangs exist more in Thailand?
