Beats56 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I have 3bb at 15mb and I watch the NHL hockey almost every morning and it works fine. No slow downs that I can see. You have to have a good connection if you watch live sports.never ever had a problem here in Rayong expect a few times in my other house when it shutdown completely. But they fixed it fast. Since I moved a few years back it has always worked good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gandalf12 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I cant say this is the reason but as Christmas approaches it could be that there is a substantial increase in people carrying out online shopping. I wouldnt think this would be significant more likely it is the limited bandwidth that Thailand has internationally. But it could contribute to the reduced speed.

Rorri Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 You people should be thankful, your speeds are "lightening" fast, compared to my "home" connection back in Australia. I am connected to Australia's largest "service" provider, Telstra, what speed am I getting, 0.3Mps, yes, you read it right, Thailand, a developing country, out performers a so called "developed" country.

chilli42 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 It is not simply the Internayionsl band width that is a problem (though it is). I now have trouble, and often can not stream video on local sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suradit69 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 The main problem rest the with companies that refuse to buy bandwidth on the international gateway. Domestic Thai internet is always OK. BBB, TOT and all the others refuse to increase their international gateway band width. Very few Thais use international internet. " Domestic Thai internet is always OK" Not sure about that. I frequently have problems accessing Thai Visa even when sites outside Thailand are easily opened.

JHolmesJr Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Also check your ethernet cable that connects internet point to modem to router etc….the cable should ideally be Cat6 or 6E….cat 5 cables transmit slower and are to built for gigabit speeds.

I hear what your saying had this conversation with a tech savvy back in uk a couple of years ago went to buy cat 6 cable was asked why,explained was told this is best reply rubish just a sales pitch so you buy more expensive cable like HDMI rip off a few years before. All erthenet cables handle exactly the same (named brands not Chinese copys). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBB, TOT and all the others refuse to increase their international gateway band width. Very few Thais use international internet. Instagram & Facebook are the two most popular sites for Thai's. Please engage brain before you post Both sites massively use coordinated caches placed at strategic locations (like internet exchanges between ISPs in a given country) to make sure that most of the traffic remains local. Believe me, only a fraction of what you see on Facebook or Instagram comes from their US servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All erthenet cables handle exactly the same (named brands not Chinese copys). Sorry this is not correct all cables are not the same, but for most home users the cable lengths are so short it is not a problem. If for some reason you are not using wifi and have long cables running round your home and can't get fibre, Cat 6 cables do give better performance. NB for good technical reasons the max length for Ethernet copper cables is normally 100 meters. If you need to run longer cables use fibre converters and run fibre optic cable. We are very lucky in many areas of Thailand that the networks are so extensive and regularly updated and we can get fibre to the home for relatively cheap prices.

bubba Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 I had a major problem with True last week from both home and work. Thai sites loaded quickly, but at both locations the international bandwidth was very slow for a couple of days. Seems to be back to normal now.
