Neeranam Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 I got broadband internet from True yesterday and am looking to download movies, especially kids ones - winnie the pooh etc. Does anyone know good sites? I want to watch football, especially Spanish - again does anyone know any sites? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jockstar Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Best way to get these is by P2P. Email me for more details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldAsiaHand Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 (edited) I got broadband internet from True yesterday and am looking to download movies..... I gather you haven't checked the speed of your connection yet. At the kind of download speeds that you will normally see with True, your kids will be in college before those kiddie their movies are loaded and ready to watch.

At the kind of download speeds that you will normally see with True, your kids will be in college before those kiddie their movies are loaded and ready to watch. I have to agree with this. I have 10meg broadband and downloading movies p2p takes forever. Even if you download from pay sites i think with the speed in Thailand, it would be quicker to fly to the uk, buy them and fly back.

Neeranam Posted March 25, 2006 Author Share Posted March 25, 2006 (edited) It's 100 Mbps true said I'd be able to download movies and watch telly. I remember a thread a while back with something about p2P, Jocky. Also, as it is always connected, time is not a problem.

skippybangkok Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 (edited) From what I know.... the 10 or 100 what ever u see at the icon is just the hardware speed. The acutal speed is controlled on the back end. I asked about this as Mine used to say something like 2.5 m somethihg, when I pay for 512k. Was all excited about getting the 2.5 till I found it its not the real speed. ( something to the effect that its the speed between ur PC and the network. - not what goes out on the other side to the world.) My Icon says I am running at 25Mps, but when I run the speed test, I am at about 490k today Edited March 25, 2006 by skippybangkok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same home network, different PC, ran with 1 Gb card, but transfer is transfer. Normally you would run the tests several times and take an average. Different time of days, days of weeks there is differing amount of traffic so the test will vary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hopeless Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 if your within 1km of the exchange box the d/l speed will be much quicker, if further than 3km your d/ling will be about as quick as the trial of O.J Simpson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
