I get 450 Kb at best on downloads but I don't pay anything (directly) for the connection.

5555 I was waiting for someone to say that.

I was in 3BB office a few weeks ago and mentioned that the 10mb package is a lot cheaper for only a small loss in speed but the girl said the 10mb package was no good for international. I asked why but she just smiled. I suspected BS but didn't push it. 555

I suspected that. The 1.1mb download I get is the actual speed that files download to my computer, not a test result.

Whats the diff? those speedtest thingos are no good?

It`s a much better service than i`ve had before here...streaming sport is fantastic with it.

Thai ISPs are known for "storing" the speedtests, so its really measuring the speed to Bangkok. I suspect your ping result is faster than the speed of light.

Yes, the speedtests may be no good.

The old ToT service use to show half the download and twice the ping.

While the 3bb might not be twice as good it`s definitely better and cheaper.
