Thanks

What do you mean by "pocket wifi" ?

 

Are you talking about a dongle that allows a laptop (or desktop) to access the internet via a mobile data connection ?

 

Or a stand alone " hot spot " which broadcasts a wifi signal after connecting to a mobile data connection ?

 

If so, then all of the main telco's, True, AIS, TOT, and DTAC offer data only services which may or may not connect to 4G network depending upon your location

 

As far a Netflix per se is concerned, you could access the "Thai" version of Netflix without a VPN but if you want the full Netflix experience you will have to have a VPN which would / could  degrade the signal even more

I have seen Truemove sell a cheap 990 baht cellphone that acts as a hotspot at 711... not sure if you can use it with a cheap prepaid plan or must buy a postpaid more expensive plan?

the stand alone hotspot, I have the Thai netflix so no need for VPN

I bring my own, in so that I can utilise any of the networks. 

 

The ones from the networks may need 'unlocking' for use with other networks. Perhaps only TRUE H are even selling them currently.
