Re: Internet speed drop from exchange
No, those are the speeds I used to get when I was with 3BB and they were fine. I was well happy with the service until the eve of the last football World Cup, when it just died. I receive my TV via the Internet, and didn't want to miss the footie - England were overdue a win :cry: . I contacted 3BB...

Re: Internet speed drop from exchange
OK I checked with 3BB. My connection is 50/20 Mbit (down/up). So the 9 Mb/s downloads I get are on the nail, in fact a bit better than I should have. Is this really a bad speed? IMO not. I paid 12 months in advance last year and it worked out to between 700 and 800 Baht a month. I don't think cable ...

Re: Internet speed drop from exchange
I'm no expert, but isn't that only about 7 Mb/sec Download and 0.6 Mb/sec Upload? I didn't realise they did such slow Internet anymore. That's 5 years ago speed, or am mis-converting Kbits to Mbs? Or is that the point? Copper speeds. I'm no expert either, that's for sure. I have VDSL I think, payin...

Re: Internet speed drop from exchange
Speed.io says speed of my ADSL copper pair is nice, the router is around 1 km from Black Mountain golf club, but ping is appalling. Using Speedtest.net to connect to UK servers in Manchester and London was even better with London showing 68.7 Kbit/s, 4.6 Kbit/s but still ping at 205 ms :D http://i.i...

Re: My hello and introduction
Hi Cameljockey, If you want me to order this set to my adress in Russia and then bring it to you - yes, I can do it. But i will be in Hh only by the end of September, so maybe the direct shipping to you will be faster? If the time is not the question - no problem. Taikka, time is no problem, thanks...

Re: Pies in Hua Hin
Next door to Tesco Express opposite the 88 food market. I'm one of their best customers. Always cost me a few thousand when all I went in for was a beer!! 175 for the large steak and kidney puddings. Don't know how that compares with AP. They do have lots of stuff that I've not seen elsewhere. Also...

Re: Tessaban Hua Hin, blue book to get ID card?
You are saying this after admitting you don't know what Page 18 actually means as you don't read Thai? I for one would sincerely appreciate some clarification, thanks. YES, because I have now had in translated to me.! You come on here asking questions and people go to the trouble of trying to help ...

Re: Tessaban Hua Hin, blue book to get ID card?
^^ It might be useful to you if the book specifies you as current owner instead of having the previous owners in there. I guess that I should not bother, but how many times does it have to be said that the blue book does NOT prove ownership, merely who is living there! :roll: You are saying this af...

Re: Pies in Hua Hin
I went along to check out the new AP Interfoods place yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised. It is only a small place but with a nice variety of goods which you may not find elsewhere, and it is obviously nice and convenient for those who live north of the city center. :cheers: I spent a couple ...

Re: Can I buy strong bread flour here?
I never knew he invented that! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_Frederick_Rohwedder Oh, he's invented many electrical appliances you can buy in Thailand, including kettles, electric frying pans, rice cookers, toasters, to name just a few. He was very active here in Thailand, even inventing the mu...

Re: Can I buy strong bread flour here?
But the electric kettle was invented (I think) by an Englishman.
