I think you're in the wrong forum but anyway try http://speedtest.adslthailand.com/ If you get above 80% of the claimed speed locally, that's considered ok. On an international link you can expect the speed to fluctuate between pretty good and pretty bad depending (mostly) on the time of day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On an international link you can expect the speed to fluctuate between pretty good and pretty bad depending (mostly) on the time of day. As I have posted before I usually get erroneous readings from Speedtest and similar sites for my CAT CDMA system. For example thisw morning the the link above reports my download speed as 23Mb/s! I believe that this is due to the test reporting the speed to the router at the CDMA base station. I get more probable results from http://www.bkkok.com/modules.php?name=Bandwidth_Meter_DSL The test results from this site quoted my speed as 1.36Mb/sf For my setup download speeds of 1.6 - 1.8Mb/s are the norm when using Torrent or Firefox Down them all to download large files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On an international link you can expect the speed to fluctuate between pretty good and pretty bad depending (mostly) on the time of day. This would be correct on ADSL for example. With wireless technology, maximum speed, or even 80% will be virtually impossible to get. For this you would have to be only person on-line, and sitting right under the transmission tower. The 3.1 Mbps is what the technology theoretically is capable of in a best case scenario, it is not the speed the ISP is selling to you! Normally with EV-DO you should see speeds anywhere between 600 kbps and 2000 kbps (0.6 and 2 Mbps). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
