Title: Internet Service Providers in Nang Rong?
Post by: M1Tanker on April 09, 2016, 02:33:48 PM

Does anyone have any experience with internet service providers in Nang Rong?

From the research that I have done the following companies provide internet service in Nang Rong:
- True
- 3BB
- TOT

The locals have recommended 3BB or True.  3BB only offers VDSL in the area. True claims to offer fiber.

Does anyone have experience with any of these or other providers in Nang Rong?

Does anyone have experience with True fiber in Nang Rong or anywhere else?
- Is it really fiber to the house? 
- Or is it broken up by with cable (wire)? I.E. fiber, wire, fiber, etc.

The fiber will only be from the main line into your house.

I have 3bb in Buriram. I recently upgraded from 10mbs to 30mbs. All they did was to replace my VDSL router with an ADSL one.

Can't see why they can't do that in Nang Rong too.

Starman,

Just to make sure I understand what you wrote.  The True fiber will only run from the "main line" to my house.  Am I to assume that the "main line" is wire?  If that is the case then the service provided isn't really benefiting from the use of fiber, because it will be limited by the wire line.

I live 22 kms from Nang Rong right on the edge of service.  The service I receive from TOT via wireless broadband is excellent.
Regards

Correct. I have seen it with my own eyes. The company went to a friends house. Changed the line from main to house. "Finished".

I get a good regular speed with ADSL.25+ down and about 2+ up.

Thats quite surprising that they replaced VDSL with ADSL, since VDSL is a later & more improved technology and generally offers higher speeds than ADSL....

I'd be happy with that speed and more importantly the fact that it is consistent.
What speed does your mate get with the fibre?

The fibre speeds are upwards of 30+,
