TMN or 3BB Internet in 9 Karat Condo?

[Banana7]

What is the better option for internet service for 9 Karat Condo, located in central Pattaya? Both TMN and 3BB internet providers are offering similar packages 20Mbps download for the 599/590 (plus 7% tax) baht per month. Modem for 3BB is 650b and the TMN modem is 2,000b plus 7% tax. 3BB offers a promotional discount of 8% if you pay 1 year in advance, until the end of October 2016.

 

Does anyone have any actually experience with these 2 providers in 9 Karat Condo? I heard 3BB performance within the condo actually varies from 4Mbps to 14Mbps.
