Mobile Broadband?

[chameleonic]

I'l give it a try to see if it's sufficient.

 

I've still got a DTac sim from last trip that I changed to 365 days before leaving. I'll have play with that.

 

Thank you Jacko and everybody else for the info.

Well not using the Mobile Edge/GPRS in the Pattaya area. As I mentioned I found it better in Chiangmai and the North. My friends TGF seemed to think it was adequate on Pratumnak Hill. I found it to be an exercise in frustration just over Sukhumvit.

Other than that I can only suggest you get up early........

Third Generation (CDMA?) is suppusoed to be available in a couple of places, I think it is Hutch......

 

As mentioned, I got ADSL and put a router put in the house!

 

I use CAT CDMA EVDO upcountry and it works pretty good. The speed is up and down like a yoyo but is normally usable. The problem is that CAT has most of the country and Hutch has the rest. Hutch is Bangkok, Chonburi and I think as far south as Huan Hin on the other side. As you may suspect they DON'T work together. I don't think that Hutch has EVDO coverage in most of their territory.

 

Speed test;
