    Maybe they  "double NATed" you....  I read on here that you can phone them and ask to be put back onto a "normal"

    IP address.

     

    Could  be something messed up with your cable modem..if you have your login details  try factory reset the modem

    then re enter the login details.

     

    3rd option call them  and get them to send the "engineer" to fix it.

    For possibly the first time, voters will be required to affix a fingerprint to the top of their ballot, above their vote.

    This is not to intimidate voters by linking their identity to their vote, Wanchai said, but was intended as a marketing maneuver. The commission hopes people will take selfies with their inked fingers, he said, and share them on social media, thus encouraging others to come out and vote.

    Can anyone help with what I can buy to do the trick???

     

    Yes you can buy your own internet connection so that you aren't sharing a "free"  WIFI signal with all the others.

     

    No amount of boosting WIFI signal  will help the TV box because  the problem is you are sharing a limited  "pipe"  with everyone else   if you get your own "pipe"  ( internet conection )  then you'll have much more success. 

  4. Found the answer as to the fingerprint

    In another report I read its illegal to take photos in the polling station or of the ballot paper..hope they tell all those sefie takers to only do it well away from the ballot box !!!

  5. So you're in Bangkok now and changing names..did they require a certificate of residence ?

    or did you use the work permit or yellow book method.

     

    If they let you change the name there is no requirement for you to change number plates  you can keep BKK plates 

    pay tax and insurance in any province.

  6. You might consider getting married before the child is born   so that your name can go on the birth certificate..which will give you and your child better options later on.

  7. Arent the "new" dreams using the wave 125 engine ?

    I doubt much is compatible with an "old" dream

    don't know if its a wave engine but the one in my photo is a 110 cc.

    Ive seen quite a few "original" dreams still riding around how do they keep them going without spares I wonder ?

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    When they phased out pure 91 a few years ago there was loads of hoo ha about the old 2 stroke motorbikes having to goto the scrapheap

    as the ethanol would ruin the engines... you still see them zooming around or more likely stuck to a vending cart sad.png

    My Honda NSR 150 has no problems running gasohol 91..it hasnt melted into a gloopy mess on the driveway..YET !

    20% ethanol is supposed to be more corrosive so more prone to causing damage but these are old run around vehicles

    ( not classic E type Jaguars )

    if they stop selling gasohol 91/95 I'll try using E20 I'm cautiously optimistic that nothing catastrophic will happen...maybe the engine life is shorten by a few years ??

  8. guesthouses and hotels between the three hundred to five hundred baht range.

    laugh.png don't think you'll find those sort of places on hotel booking sites !

    these are the ones you stumble upon out in the middle of nowhere on a road trip.

    Just take a camping mat and sleep on the side of the road facepalm.gif even better the nearest temple..beware of the dogs though.

  9. My 19 year old Honda Dream runs OK for a while on gasohol, but eventually starts running roughly. It makes a mess of the carburettor, which has non gasohol compatible parts.

    The Honda Dream is still being made...you should be able to find some parts ( carburettor rebuild kit ) that will be at least E20 compatible for your Dream.

    Worse case scenario is a brand new carburettor with ethanol resistant parts about 2-3000 baht.
