    Need Commercial Internet... suggestions?

    OK, I currently have Leased Line 2 meg in Ban Phe and pay 46,000 baht per month. And it is not that good. One problem is that INTERNAL THAILAND speeds may be great but international connections (I need connections with Korea and China) can be slow.

    I just got a new contract that requires even more bandwidth. I am open to changing locations. So if I am in Bangkok is there a better connection? Or?

    Any suggestions on where I can get great international bandwidth and good service? right now I am going to make this work in Thailand but longer term i could move offshore--would the Philippines be any better? or another location?

    Any experts out there?

    Its most likely your connection out of Thailand that is being bottle necked, not a lot you can do about that, also China and Korea are about the slowest to get to from anywhere in the world.

    That changes every month as Thailand gets allocated more ips to who has the money to buy them, whenever I ping a server China and Korea generally take 3 or more times the amount of time to ping and get a response, so expect loading times of about 3 or more times more than say a site in America, UK etc etc

    South Korea or Japan would be the best bet, anywhere else in SE Asia is primitive by comparison.
