007cableguy Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Just moved into this building and only going to be here for 3 months so pointless having a line put in by 3BB or Sophon cable,But they have a Wi-Fi option which you pay for in the office and is 6Mb and good enough for me , The only problem I have is I have a android TV box + laptop + Ipad ,Would I be able to log on to the Wi-Fi via my Windows laptop and make it into a hotspot so I can connect it to my other devices ? sorry not good with technical stuff. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uheuhe Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Well, I can only tell you what I am doing with a similar setup in Cambodia. I use a TP-LINK TL-MR3020 that I connect to the external WIFI signal (your ISP). (Using the WISP Client) I have the DHCP activated in the TL-MR3020 and making shure it is on a different subnet than the ISP. When connecting with one of my computers I am asked for the Login and Password of the WIFI internet supplier. After logging in, all my other computers, tablets and smartphones and Chromecasts have access to the Internet. The trick is that it is the TL-MR3020 that is registered as user at your ISP, and that all access from all your computers are being registered as access from the TL-MR3020. I am going to test the setup at a friend in Pattaya around the 9th of January, and if you are interested I will inform you if it is working. PS. you can do the same trick with any router using DD-WRT firmware Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Aleman Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 I live just a few hundred meters from you and use a Dtac air card with 24/7 plan at 425 B a month. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJCM Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 I live just a few hundred meters from you and use a Dtac air card with 24/7 plan at 425 B a month. Question, which max speed do you get with that ? Or do you have a link to that particular package ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wpcoe Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 ... and what is the data quota you receive at "high speed" 3G before the download speed is throttled to a crawl? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiu-Jitsu Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Looked into available packages. TOT is the only one with truly unlimited, but who can guess as to their coverage in Jomtien? 1290 per month for unlimited data usage capped at 1Mbps and 1590 capped at 2 Mbps. They also have 20GB packages for 990 baht after which it is capped at 384 kbps. Since both DTAC and AIS are offering 12 GB for 854 baht via Prepaid, you might get by on a couple of those. You are just missing a MiFi unit. I had a new spare, but just sold it for 1500 baht unlocked. Cheapest you can get one now is a ZTE MF65 from TRUE for around 1500 baht, but then it's locked to TRUE. So you'd need to spend more to unlock it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeOwen Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Stayed in Talay 2 on occasions , there wi-fi is rubbish unless they've had a recent upgrade , don't even think about android boxes , check with the reception , but i doubt you'll be getting a steady 6mb , Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
