Phil Conners Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 (edited) I have a smartphone with DTAC that I like to use as my backup-internet in case my Maxnet ADSL (very rarely) goes down. For fun I decided to test the speed today ... abysmal: This is 56k (analog modem) speeds. EDGE should be 256k down afaik (notice this is just a simple test to Bangkok, not even international). Imagine they attempt to provide 3G with that kind of internet capacity. Am I just unlucky? Are they usually better?

David006 Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Naaah... spot on... I show 237kb/s but speeds are usually around those you have tested..using Novatel modem on DTAC also...roll on 3G someday.. lucky you have a choice where you are... "they say" that 3G will be very reliable and very fast.."they" say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tywais Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 I would say the tests from my DTAC EDGE to Bangkok from Chiangmai are usually in the below ranges the majority of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
