monty Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Correct, the IPTV system uses a small ubc sized dish for downloading and a telephone line for uploading! You also have the IPSTAR system which does not use a phoneline, but it has a bigger dish of about 1.2 meter diameter. Also is expensive at 3210 Baht/month, and capped at maximium 750 mb data traffic per month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girlx Posted July 12, 2005 Author Share Posted July 12, 2005 awww, shucks. it seems strange to me that i can order satellite service but can't get a standard phone line here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girlx Posted July 12, 2005 Author Share Posted July 12, 2005 by the way monty did you have troubles getting IPStar installed (assuming you have it)? I can not get any response from Lox Info, and I have called, emailed and faxed them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 No problems getting it installed, but I never dealt with Loxinfo directly... They have local dealers around the country who handle the installation! My dealer had it up and running within a week. Threw it out just recently because TT&T enabled ADSL on my phoneline http://www.csloxinfo.com/wheretobuy/index_en.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
