ethaniel Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 (edited) (add +4 hours to graph time, because the graphing server is in another timezone). Today was probably the worst day for TOT, CAT and AIS. And probably it has to do with so many new people on the island right now. As I'm speaking, TOT, CAT and AIS international speeds are incredibly slow (100-500 kilobits per connection per second). Info from 3 separate TOT connections, 1 AIS and 1 CAT. 3BB is the best as usual. Info from 2 separate 3BB lines. So basically, if you're still deciding on what Fiber Provider to go for - choose 3BB. It has shown stable results throughout the year and the international speeds are much faster than other providers. Other providers (from good to bad). 2nd place - TOT. 3rd place - AIS and CAT.

evadgib Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 (edited) As a technical doughnut I cannot understand why I get the ol' "You have insufficient bandwidth to stream this programme" on my latest 3BB line yet the line it replaced less than a fortnight ago had no such problems streaming the same programme(s) on the same device.

What bandwidth did you have and how much now. 2. Are you streaming from abroad. 3. Do you use WiFi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get better speed with cable but like WiFi, you might consider upgrading your router. Try this and report back. https://testmy.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like the idea of a cable as the modem is in the same room as the computer in question and could well solve the problem :) Edited December 29, 2017 by evadgib Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evadgib Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 (edited) Thanks Ethaniel, I'm unable to take a photo right now but the following details might help from the box and receipt: Modem: GPON AN5506-04DG Receipt: 3BB FTTx 100M/30M (KP) I also note that my (wifi) printer no longer works from my kids PC (Homework!) but thankfully still works from my desktop. If I can't fix this (the manual points towards LAN) i'll ask a friend to drop by next week before I cock it up completely Edited December 29, 2017 by evadgib Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zib Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 (edited) What are you speedtesting from/to? In the graph i mean Edited December 30, 2017 by zib Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peperobi Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 My experience during 22 years Koh Samui: service TOT, 3BB, BAD, AIS good, speed: TOT some time days no connection, 3BB almost very slowly, AIS almost faster than mentioned on the contract.

zib Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 You can't do speedtest from/to a single point and think that represents how good/bad the ISP is. I have far better experience with my AIS connection than my 3BB (I have both). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zib Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 You can check http://slim.keff.org/speedtest/ . Just updated it so not much data at the moment. Runs every hour. Unforuntately no nice graphs yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Autonuaq Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 (edited) Sorry do totally not agree and 3BB is not the best based on all testing we have done with 3BB True mobile True online 3BB AND depending on where you are TOT fiber can be better then 3BB AIS we not know about. 3BB is aware of the test results we did as well jasmine and have till no solution to solve it. True also is aware of the test results and did made improvements still the mobile is faster and more stable Edited December 30, 2017 by Autonuaq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too could never get My wireless printer to connect to the 3bb router. With AIS it connected right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favourite error message ever, some 30 years ago. "error in sub iperf" ? Sorry for the computer professional joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
