It might help if you give yiur location, that is imprtant to give and get better and more appropriate help.

Location can effect services dramatically.

Listen to your son. He probably knows more than you do. Kids these days seem to know all about these kinds of things. Yeah, windows XP is kinda outdated, the current version is WIN8. But unless your a computer nerd it won't matter. He is probably making some of these suggestions as to facilitate the games he likes to play.

And what your current 3BB package is.

3BB has the habit of continually upgrading people's internet connection without telling them, only way to notice it is when download big files, doing a local Bkk based speed test or checking the status page in your router.

Was this in-Thailand speed test - or to a USA/Euro server? Seems slow to me for that money for Thailand. Might be worth looking at the 900 baht 13mb one - you maty find you get better compression rates if less people are on that line too.

you have 3BB premier as package which is a 3Mb package, you can safely change to the 13Mb.
