clokwise Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 I live in CM, using True, and accidentally turned on the 3G function on my iphone 3gs today and was surprised to see the "3G" icon appear. Normally I only see that in Bangkok. According to SBSettings I have an IP address, however I could not get any data. When I switched off 3G and fell back to "E"dge I could get data again. Perhaps they're preparing the local network for imminent 3G launch. Hope so!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikster Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Definitely switching to that True plan soon.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clokwise Posted December 10, 2009 Author Share Posted December 10, 2009 The 3G switched off last night, not long after I posted my message here, and has yet to appear again today. I'd guess they must be testing the system. I've got the unlimited data plan with True so this will be sweet to have 3G in CM! True 3G in Bangkok has proven to be far faster and more stable than my True 8Mb ADSL in CM, so I may want to tether my notebook full time in CM, maybe even drop the ADSL altogether.

clokwise Posted December 10, 2009 Author Share Posted December 10, 2009 True 3G is up and running again tonight, getting full speed data now too. Sweet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clokwise Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 3G is up, but data is blocked again today. Today itunes notified me of a new carrier profile and after installing it I see that True now supports tethering (again), and VPN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billd766 Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 I just looked at the BBC news website this morning and found this little item. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8412035.stm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikster Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 I just looked at the BBC news website this morning and found this little item.http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8412035.stm It's good to blaze a trail there, 4G is definitely the way to go. But even the beeb article mentions that there won't be any phones ready for the launch, so it's a bit early really. Guess I have to switch to True soon, anyone know if I need a work permit or stuff like that? If so I'll just do it in the wifes name... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MansonDust Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 What is the rate for True 3G? Is it flat rate or do you have to pay per mb?? What about coverage in Bkk?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
