I'm going to Phuket for a week (Bang Tao) and would like to be able to get online as much as possible during that time.

I plan to use my laptop but I have a basic smartphone which I could use as a modem (I think).

Any suggestions on how I could get online for that week with a decent speed for browsing the web on the laptop?

I'm currently with pre-pay AIS on my phone but the 3g that I've tried (49 baht a day) is pretty useless for surfing the web.

I don't mind getting another pre-pay sim for the week if that is the best option in terms of coverage and speed on Phuket.

Would a USB dongle that I could plug the sim into be a better option?

Any tips?

Thanks

Thanks but its hard to tell from the websites who really has the best coverage down there and how fast they are in real terms.

I was hoping someone from the area could recommend a decent network to go with.

I'll just pick up a few different options and see how they fare.

Thanks.

I think you'll just have to get to the Bang Tao and then try which SIM works on your specific location. Signals can vary quite a lot, even if you move your phone or other device a little bit.

I'm using DTAC in Phuket, which is ok for my usage.
