Use 256 or lower cause the bandwith will eat you up at 512 allowing the kids to play a lot faster. You would have to charge at least 120 baht per hour to break even. You will probaly take notice of the fact that I convinced my wife to close her Cafe.

You don't say where in Thailand.

i.e. Bangkok, etc. you probably want to get a fairly fast connection. (i.e. The internet cafe deal from True seems to give about 1.5Mbps download speed for 2,400 B a month, and obviously doesn't have the single PC restriction on it.)

If you're outside Bangkok, ADSL might not even be available, and if it is, it's probably a bit more expensive... (unless you ignore the single PC restriction).

I stand corrected. We are up country and were using ipStar. Did not even consider BKK and the new servcies available there. Sorry.
