I got this on the back of my intertnet/phone bill....they may as well have replaced "Mb" with "Inch Cock"

"Wow 590 Baht a month, the little Thai with a 3" cock!" - "Ah yes son, but if you pay 1500 Baht a month you get a 12" wanger like me....and....you become a trendy, 5 o'clock shadow Farang!"

dual port modem - cool

all this excitement over download speed - people just do not seem to grasp the importance of upload speed

if you want to video conference , remote back up files , keep a good ratio on puretna ,you need good upload bandwidth - it should all be synchronous , this asynchonous trend is for luddites.

With maxnet you can actually talk to them about giving you more uploading bandwidth and reducing your downloading bandwidth.

Pity the website contradicts the offer on the envelope.

Does anyone know what package will give more than 512k upload ?

^ I have a True 16mb connection with 1mb upload.

They call it the 'Premium' service.

Just out of curiosity, do you get anywhere near the advertised rate?

I have been quite lucky on TOT since I replaced their SHIT modem, and have been getting almost 3Mb (3" cock) downloads, but my upload speed never gets much above 100KB.

Maybe I need to pay 1500 Baht for a huge dicks worth of width!

StrontiumDog · 30-11-2009, 10:46 PM

100kb upload speed means you are getting 1mb, the maximum possible so far. In other words, you're doing great.

baldrick · 01-12-2009, 03:18 AM

b = bit
B = byte

defacto standard is 8 bits to the byte

Byte - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sorry, I mis used the terms, the bit / byte thing.

I am supposed to get 512KB (half meg) upload, but usually get about 1/5 th Speedtest shows about half of the 512. I don't really upload much anyway, just photos of black guys blowing themselves now and again.

chitown · 01-12-2009, 08:31 PM

I am on a 8mb 1200 baht plan and it quite fast.

I have maximum upload speeds on my line pretty much always, but my d/l speed varies enormously. My ISP sucks. But I need to move to get True...
