WIFI Almost At A Standstill
Thanks for your input . I have both wifi & Ethernet , with the problem still happening . However the buffering may not occur every day and never when I watch a Wizz movie . I have been told that a local bar has the same problem with buffering and uses 3BB and Wizz same as me . But speed tests are always good on the fire stick when buffering happens . However last Saturday a friend was in the bar watching footy and no buffering . He noticed that on the TV screen , top right corner it showed True TV . I was at home trying to watch the same footy with constant buffering on Sky or TNT (cannot remember ) My final suspicion is that maybe my 3BB basic mesh router could be the problem . It gets hot and often stops which means that I turn it off for 10 minutes or so and position a fan to keep it cool . But I turn the fan off at night and in the wee small hours , if I watch TV it often buffers on all channels . I am considering an Archer TP-Link cat 6e mesh router . BTW I have cleared the Wizz TV cache , not using a VPN . I liked Wizz TV and have 3 subscriptions ( 1 in the UK and 2 in Thailand ) . -

EV Charging Stations (CS)
Yea...when using some website/app like Plug & Share or Charge Loma you can find MANY chargers listed that are small AC chargers (e.g., 7KW chargers) at small resorts/hotels, maybe a person's driveway, etc.,....just another way to hopefully make a few baht and provide a service to a customer. But even those sites/apps don't list on the AC/DC chargers Like shown at the bottom some small resort north of Chiang Rai which has some wall chargers. I expect no app is used....you just pay the charger owner directly, just added to your hotel bill, etc. Places like this are fine like if staying at the resort, you plug-in over night, the 7KW wall charger will add about 10% SoC per hour, and come next morning as you check-out & continue your trip you have a full charge. But for a "quick" charge as you drive along to your next destination, well, unless you want to set at a 7KW charger for hours & hours to top-up at around a 10% SoC per hour it would sure add a LOT hours to finally reach your destination. But if the EV battery is almost empty (and the driver can usually only blame himself for letting it get that low....and I not implying anything) then a 7KW wall charger slowly pumping out electrons is surely a big relief.....surely feels better than standing next to a dead EV along while calling for Roadside Assistance....while mentally cussing yourself out for letting the battery get too low. Best to find a DC charger of at least 50KW capability (preferably at least 100/120KW) so a person can top-up a lot faster....maybe even go from close to 0% to 100% SoC within an hour or so depending on your EV's charging curve capability...preaching to the choir I know. Signing up with say at least three different major charging networks/apps like say PTT, PEA, EA Anywhere, EleXa, Altervim, ReverSharger, etc., is the way to go as their apps will provide the latest info/location of their AC and DC chargers.....Tony and Patrick's chargers will not be listed. 😀 In my opinion if a person only signed up with "one" of the major charging networks/apps for long trips that one app should probably be PTT EV Station Pluz as PTT stations are pretty much everywhere. Many of them have EV chargers (whether their main road sign show an EV Charging mini sign or not..be sure to use their app to find their chargers---don't just relay on EV Charger signs). PTT is still adding more and more chargers at many of its stations and usually PTT stations are one of the best places to stop to take a bathroom break, get some food, maybe even a little shopping, etc....a lot of PTT are almost like small strip malls. But the PTT app don't have a Wallet/QR payment options....must pay with a debit/credit card...but they do accept Thai and foreign cards...and remember a charging app can't control the possibility of your "card-issuing bank" from declining a payment transaction even though you initially got the card successfully added as a payment option in the app. But using a card issued by a Thai bank should be accepted 100% of the time assuming you initially get it loaded in the app as an approved payment option. Once again...preaching to the choir I know....this is really meant as cross-feed for others who are considering buying an EV and concerned about being able easily charge on long trips....what charging networks/apps are "customer-friendly, easy to use, etc." -
