A dtac promotion will get you 150min talk and 3gig of 3g/4g a month @ 399baht prepaid plus 20 fee each month - something like that. Has a number of sms too but don't recall how many I think it is 30 a month - if you just preload the account with the money it will reload each month on time. Wife has been using it for a few months and she is happy with it - we do have great dtac coverage in our area. It does slow to 128k if you use up the 3g but you can enter a code and from the preloaded funds you have on account buy another 1gig at a time @150baht each and still at the end of the month if enough money is still left it will reload the promotion automatically. You can add money at any time to the account for use later or to be sure enough is there at the end of the month - no need to run in at the last minute. If you use up the talk time it will charge your account funds by the min but there is a way to top that up too. Never had to reach those limits yet, but she is working on it. fact is with line app she uses so much less talk time then before. She found she can send me voice clips so now she does not even have to type - of course she has to send a sticker with them - its a thai thing . For higher cost they have bigger packages too. I am not big on phone use so I use a 100min 500mb account @ 199 a month it is older non promotion account.

The only thing with 3g is that data goes quick. It is not unlimited by any means.

With my laptop (with wifi), I also use connectify and use my laptop as a hotspot, totally encrypted between my phones and the laptop.

He has no cable and I found many aircards won't share to the wifi connection of the laptop only the eth port or at leaast I had that problem with mine.

Yes before I had a router I used an old laptop with aircard and shared the eth port to a switch that gave me 4 ports for the desktop etc. but then no wifi in the home.

Just having a portable device type router or another phone to hotspot works too but limited often by number of devices that can connect, but the real router has more wifi range and better control panel for port forwarding and all the normal stuff you like to have in a home LAN. It is a pain to spend half of each month at 385k internet, but you adjust to it. torrents etc are not even on the table.

If you don't have a cable internet your not getting around the use of 3g at home - you can check into airnet type systems with ToT or maybe AIS which they never had around my place - it sets up an internet connection via a tower but is full time internet not really a typical 3g connection - don't use Ipstar sat - it is slow expense and before we had cell towers I used it - painful painful painful.

The Winet option would be the best solution. We have gone to TOT That Tum (Surin province) many times. They won't help us. They want a number of people to sign up in our village before they would decide to move. I had their lousy Ipstar for 2 years 3 or four times the price of a decent cable Internet connection. Mostly we had less than 1 MB.

Sad to say that I trade on the SET every trading day ... via 3G.

You had 1m with IpStar? - that would have been nice I could not even apply for that - I paid 2600 for 512k and got 128k at best between 8am and 10pm and 256k late nite - when I had cheaper 256k everything was twice as bad as 512k. I could never send an email over 25k in size and it had to be pure text or the smtp server would fault even using gmail online for some reason, but could receive them.

When dtac put in 2g I had a good 256k 24/7 at half the price. When they upgraded to 3g it was like going to heaven to have 385k when the 3g runs out. Now we have 3bb or have paid first month and the cable is on the pole outside the house on the road - hope to be cooking with 10m @ 590 a month by end of next week or at least before May - only took 18 years to get here - but it is here.

Go find your 3bb people and see if they have plans for your area coming up - ask them to put up signs and start a list of callers. I gave lists of people to ToT year on year and it never made a difference - was never enough.

Good luck - hope it gets better I know what it is like.

Most of the hand outs I have seen in the stores provide cal. using total cube of room not just floor which is an avg rule. It does matter - the air moves in a room when the A/C is on air and the air that rises moves too.

http://www.calculator.net/btu-calculator.html

you can guess at your condition of insulation - mine is good as we put bats of 4in in the over head installed proper etc. and we have 3m walls which add a lot of space to a room.

Use what you think the avg room temp would be without A/C as that is the differential your working to over come. Thailand hot hot hot.

It is something like that (design flaw) - every time the pump kicks off because the storage is above it rather then a draw from below which the pumps are primarily designed for - some tiny amount of air is lost or something. Many expansion tanks have a rubber tube inside for the air so that won't happen but cheaper pumps are just a steal tank.

If you want to use your phone and connect to wifi (i.e. router) rather then make your phone the wifi - then you need a router or another phone - I have a dlink-112 router and use a 3g aircard sim which provides wifi and lan ports in the house. about 1600 baht plus you need another 3g package and sim. You still pay for 3g coming or going only diff is an aircard tab sim is often cheaper 3g more 3g and 385k when 3g is used up. Been doing this for years. there are other routers that work also just make sure it is a 3g usb port the dlink will connect automatically without set up it reads the sim card rom and connects when plugged in.

If you can afford a small piece of land and you only want a simple house - you can purchase the material and build it. I know of one person that built a small house years ago on some cheap but good land and used a Credit card to buy the material. Ended up with about a 220 dollar a month min payment on the card, but because he had cash flow he paid it off in two years saving a lot of the interest he would have paid over a 20 year on a mortgage. Higher interest yes, but short term if you make the extra payments and no bank involvement etc. Oh and he earned air miles with ever purchase he would joke.

It is a roll of the dice and depends on what your relationship is but anything is possible. If your handy you can build more for the same money. After that he has saved rent money month on month for over ten years now. If you do the math it worked for him.

I don't know? - he still had one left.

Removed the plug so all water could go out, put the plug back again, power on and now it's working as it should work!

Thanks for all your help

You will find that with a small expansion tank and storage of water above it this condition will return from time to time, but now you know

They have a check valve built in - a cap can be removed and you will see a plastic plunger with spring - if your not seeing a hearing water going back into the tank then not a problem - turn off the power close all the valves and remove plug in side of red tank and drain completely - it will go glup glup glup as air enters to replace water after it is drained replace the plug open valves and restart the pump - it will rebuild the air head in the top of the expansion tank.

I have an idea.....

Those flats are the wrong color - would be better with combat boots - Corporal Klinger

The pressure tank has no air - it should cycle much slower even if you had a large leak. It does not stay off during draw down because the pressure drop is pure hydro and no air expansion.

They look still wrapped to me.

What will happen to Yahoo if the daily mail buys it? Going to have to get that gateway working overtime.

The kid wants to stay in the US and go to school etc - The kid is allowed a parent if she has the paper to show she is the mother she will get the green card - did they apply for marriage visa when she came over or tourist visa? Why didn't they get married years ago? - Like most stories in the MSM half of the facts that matter would take all the tear jerking out of the story. As retired he has benefits for the child - go down to a local VFW and ask for help for his kid that wants mom to stay - likely they will call up the whole damn Calvary for her.

Why not take this all up with the building code departments - proper design of bath, toilet and changing rooms will render the whole topic totally mute.

"current situation in Thailand was not normal"? looks a lot like the last 19 coups and 80 years have to me - so what is not normal about it this time? Inquiring minds what to know.

This could be a problem - I m vary sure that any dancing I might do would be considered provocative simply by default. I shell therefor refrain, but not because I was told to - only because I choose to. As far as the dress - I never wear them.

This is as good as the women from out of town in Seattle that drove her rental car down a boat ramp into the water - 'Why didn't you just stop?' 'Well - the gps said to keep going that way so I did'.

Seems adult toys are not selling well either...

Well - everyone already has at least one.

It lets anyone that knows enough to check your wifi that your not home or asleep and don't use a remote security system. Just have a good password.

They will store the flood control propellers under the roadway/runway during the dry season.

Well - if she owns a boat I would like her to send some pictures ......... of the boat.

It was mentioned before that any Thaivisa users who innocently clicked on that site to look at it as it was posted about multiple times last night may be subject to legal issues. Is that really a concern?

I mentioned that as a concern. Probably not a big concern but they may be digging through the IP records of who accessed it to find the original source of the hack. Forgot to turn my VPN on before looking and before knowing what was going on.

Isn't the use of a VPN illegal in Thailand as well?

No - only the misuse of it to by pass officially blocked sites or commit crimes like hacking into data bases at immigration.

OMG did he wear a pink suite and claim a vest right wing conspiracy also. We also have the Kardashians on TV - I think it is rather a failure of the EPA to keep strange things out of the water that lead to both - long before Trump it was Jarry Springer. You can always tap into a percentage of something - that is how we got the Dem party - an issue in every pot.
