Broadband Speeds To The Uk

Hi, on a (slightly) more upbeat note from my last posting, can someone tell me if it's possible to get good Broadband speeds for UK websites? I've just had 3BB install a wired connection because our building's Wifi was so unreliable. Some of the time it meets their 6 Mbps package promise but when I try to access the BBC (with or without a VPN) it virtually comes to a standstill. An IT mate of mine did a ping test and confirmed it's hardly working and has a 30% packet loss. He also says that in Malaysia the government "throttles" international traffic - is that what's happening here? I've come to rely on a daily dose of Newsnight and Radio 5 football commentaries!

Welcome to Thailand Internet.

The bandwidth from Thailand to Europe is poor to say the least. West Coast USA i about 2-3 times faster than the bandwidth you will get to europe.

Give you an example I am on 50mb VDSL2 in BKK bandwidth to Europe is 10mb on a good day bandwidth to US is around 35-42mb.

Not much you can do about it :(
