Ais 3G Impressive

[Richard-BKK]

I got my 3G subscription from AIS and the first test I did is impressive

Random thoughts...

I suspect 90% of the traffic on the new AIS 3G network is generated by Speedtests.

Speedtests can/are spoofed.

There are few people on the network.

This DL speed is overkill for typical smartphone apps.

If you sustain that rate you'll burn through your 'fair-use' cap in a few days and then be back at 384 Kbps.

What would be really impressive would be a double-digit DL rate.

speedtest site isn't reliable because the ISPs use caching which gives inflated numbers. Use this one instead (Mobile phone browser) Speed

Someone test it using this link and post Please.

You will see a BIG difference i am sure

I use triple B here in Phuket

and this is using the other test

1.040mb/s down

.410mb/s up

I've been an AIS subscriber for almost a year, and although I have seen speed figures like yours, my overall experience is on the opposite end of the spectrum from impressive. Sounds like the infrastructure is better in your area. Failure to connect to websites is a common problem caused by some squid software in Bangkok.

Mobile speed test in the middle of Bangkok (on 3G AIS)

387 kbit/sec

0.917s latency

22.011s d/1 time

this is using the dslreport speed test.

Let's see if it continues...
