After having super expensive IPStar for 4 months I've managed to get out of the 1 year contract and will be changing to TOT ADSL hopefully next week! I will be linking 3 computers together (via router) and wondering what speed connection I should get...the most obvious answer would be the fastest (?), but I've read several times that it was a waste of money to get the 1,024/512 and that 512/256 was pretty much equal??? Anyone switched between the 2 speeds before, if so what was the result??

One comp will be for downloading movies/tv shows possibly (never done it but want to start) and all 3 are for general internet browsing, not gaming. Hope this all makes sense.

Thanks heaps!

Makes a difference. Use a multithread downloader manager or multi connection newsgroup downloader you will hit 105-115 kb/sec on 1024/512 on TOT adsl and 512/256 u will get 50kb/sec.

If you are using usenet for your tv / movies then 1024 is well worth it.

Depends what you use it for. No difference in browsing speeds or Pings for gaming.

Thanks for that Dekka...not too many responses coming in..guess internet's been done to death! Appreciate it!

I have 2x Pc's + 2x internet connected TV's

The max one can get here in the sticks is the 256/128 package [only option is True + there sub station is to far away to get a higher speed

All work well, but if all 4 are on together the main TV will freeze for a couple of seconds every so often.

If TT&T is an option they are doubling speeds for free.

My 1024 acct has been doubled for about a week now.

If TT&T are in your area it is worth checkingout.

Likewise True, if you live within a short distance of a sub station they upgrade your connection from basic 256/128 to 1024 for the same 590 baht per month

Unfortunately TOT is my only option here as I'm too far away from town to get TT&T. That's an excellent deal for the same price. I signed up for the 1024/512 and get it put on tomorrow. Hope it doesn't disappoint!
