wayned Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Is TV slow today or is it just my antiquated browser showing it's age. The screens are taking forever to come up and I have made a couple of posts that have ended up in a black hole, never to be read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayned Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 I'm on TOT. I live in the sticks and they just upgraded the system 2 weeks ago. Max upload used to be 1MBPS now it's 5MBPS. TV worked fine up to 2 days ago and then slowed down, all other websites seem to be okay. No choice where I live, it's TOT or carrier pidgeon. Tried winnet, but no los to only tower due to trees.

Langsuan Man Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Have had problems for the last several days using Firefox 18 as described by the OP Solved it by using IE 9 today, page loading much quicker and no black holes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny1967 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I discovered today that True use transparent proxy's,and that'll slow down a lot of sites.I've switched to a vpn service and it seems to be loading pretty quick now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayman Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 The way I deal with this slowness/lack of TVF page loading is to enable the true proxy. With the proxy enabled the pages seem to load. When I disable it is when I have the slowness. By default I don't like to surf through their proxy but I have it setup in chrome so that with the push of a button the web traffic is routed through the proxy. proxy.asianet.co.th port 8080 is what I use.

Familyonthemove Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Pathetically slow again today, and hangs when I make a post. I use True and have a fast (ish) connection that is working fine on all other sites I use. Only TV is having problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry - After looking at Post #11 I still don't what this means? I have internet from True and it launches with an irritating home site from True?

GreenSnapper Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 The official TRUE proxy is often broken too - then nothing loads. But sometimes it helps speeding up! The transparent proxy they use is a big mess which is mainly responsible for your browsing problems. And it seems, they never get it right. So use a VPN which goes around the lack of IT engineering skills in Thailand. The VPN slows down your traffic too, but often faster than the TRUE server infrastructure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks - that must explain my mysterious internet problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
