Phil Conners Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Wouldn't be surprised if they've done the Internet equivalent of the road blocks they set up when motorcades with self important politicians at the Asean summit having to be raced through while everybody else have to wait forever... i.e. pre-allocated a big chunk of international Internet bandwidth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K2K Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Appaling inetrnational speed today and serious patchiness in the last 2 weeks .. perhaps its a combination of a ham fisted attempt to block Square Head :- The Information and Communication Technology Minister admitted that authorities have no tools to block the controversial video-link addresses of ousted Prime Minister Thaksin Shinnawatra. Information and Communication Technology Minister, Raniongrak Suwanchawee , stated that the government cannot block the video-link addresses by ousted Prime Minister Thaksin Shinnnawatra, broadcast to protesters of the Democratic Alliance Against Dictatorship, as the signal comes from overseas. Ranongruk, however, stated that the government could take action against Thaksin if his speeches damage the country's key institutions or violate article 63th of the Constitution regarding peaceful gatherings. The minister also insisted that Thaksin's video-link addresses have never been broadcast via Thai Com or the state run TOT company, as has been alleged. TOC News Add to that the ASEAN Summit.... not a happy recipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sniffdog Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 May it be that the cancellation of the Asean and the improvement of Internet speeds are related? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie_fly Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Stop posting these local speed tests .... they are not of use to 99% of the TV users. BTW Like the new look of speedtest.net ... I am not actually seeing a much speed difference between BKK, London Singapore or LA, just big ping differences, I tried all four on speedtest and they all showed around 0.8Mb down and 0.24Mb up. regards Freddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sniffdog Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 (edited) I do see differences ..... Perhaps you're on a lower speed package than some of us are. Interesting results here: http://speedtest.net/global.php And if you like to upload, move to Lithuania! Edited April 11, 2009 by sniffdog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emeritus Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 ...Perhaps you're on a lower speed package than some of us are... I always thought that speed test results are meaningless without knowing the contracted speed. For example, it your contract is for 4.0 Mb and you get only 0.4 Mb, it is not good but if your contract is for 0.4 Mb and you get 0.4 Mb, you are a lucky guy.

Hawkup2000 Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Wow I have really have high hopes that this Kofi Annan will make a difference as UN Secretary-General. Wait...it's not 1996! Hmm why when is my connection as slow as it was back in 1996? Ohh, I am a TOT victim . To make a simple google search takes over two minutes! TOT TIT!

dttk0009 Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 It's ok bud. I went from a 450kb/s download speed to 40kb/s literally within an hour, from 5-6pm today, because it's 'peak hour'. The sad thing is, it usually takes a week for speeds like this to recover to its advertised speed, even locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
