Internet Access In The Sticks

[Monkey Boy]

Is there any decent Internet service available outside Bangkok or the major residential areas?

I'm based in Si Sa Ket and my connections times are so slow that sometimes I feel it would be better to send a letter instead of an email.

Is there any plans to improve the telephone network/infastructure in the LOS?

Search this forum for IPStar (satellite) if you want to spend some B. When I lived in the middle of nowhere I used dialup when it worked, and AIS GPRS when it didn't.

Thanks for the heads up. Cheers

if you have little chance of getting a phone line where you are and do not wish to pay for sat you might do well to check out GPRS.
