I live in Pattaya and have the basic 10mb package. I find it very slow for video or TV streaming and buffers a lot. Will the upgrade to 15mb solve this? I understand they have a 30mb fibre optic package. Anybody any experience of this? Is it more suitable. Is it stable? Available everywhere in Pattaya. I live on the dark side.

Get the fiber.. Superb.. streaming from major US sites easily now.

where do you buy this fiber & how much. We live in Nonthburi, and hardly watch tv any more, because of the constant commercials playing over & over, like someone is asleep at the controls. So just movies for us, but often while watching a movie you can loose the picture and it doesn't return, very frustrating.

on any day using 3bb speedtest site I would be lucky to get 8MB down and .35 MB up

The internet in Thailand is only as good as the weather and the dam power cuts.

I'm using the 13/1 Mbps package in Chiang Mai and have no problem streaming. My wife is streaming regularly either her back issues of soaps or movies though those are Thai sites. I use YouTube often in 1080HD with no problems. A lot depends on your location and contention ratio and time of day as to how well it performs.
