Here's how my wife and I had our leaky roof repaired, we saw some nearby construction going on and stopped and ask them if they had time to fix our leaky roof, two guys came by after 5pm, went up on our roof and said they'll be back Saturday (I'm guessing their day off). They came back and applied cement and that roof sealing paint all along the apex, problem solved, I can't remember the price but it wasn't expensive.
If you don't get any recommendations, maybe give this method a try, good luck.
Thanks, have already asked two groups working on houses in our village but they're not interested in small projects like this one.

The roof of my house has started leaking so need to get it fixed ASAP. Can anyone recommend a handyman for this job?

Are there any tennis groups in Pattaya that meet regularly and play? Asking for my wife who want's to start playing again after a long break. Nothing too competitive, just friendly games.

Save it in case you need it later. It just confirms the report was submitted.
Thanks again. I have already received an email (attached) from Immigration but am unsure whether it means the report has been successfully completed or if they just say info received and that they are processing it?

Check your spam folder for the email. They normally are sent almost instantly when requested.
If not received try a different email address to do it again.
Thanks, I tried with a different e-mail and instant success. Filled in the application and am currently waiting for a reply but did instantly get a filled-out TM47 form in a PDF format. What should I do with this document?

I applied for a password to use the new online website 2 days ago but so far no reply. Anyone else had to wait that long to get a password?

Ok. The use of a LAN cable is the best connection you can have.
Could there be leaches on your internet?
If you can go into your router, you will be able to see connected devices. If you see unknown devices on your network, change the WiFi password and lock them out.
If you can not go into your router, go to the Google Play Store on your phone and install the "Fing" app and scan your network. It will list all the connected devices.
Been through all the router menus but no connected devices list fould. Will give the "Fing' app a try instead.

Over the past week or so, my internet with TOT keeps dropping out for a few seconds. Very annoying as I'm studying through webinars. Spoke to someone on video call for about an hour on Friday and it dropped 5 or 6 times.
I think I'll do as suggested earlier and give the router a rest. See what happens...
I'm switching my router off pretty much daily so that should not be an issue for me but if you rarely do this then you should as it's recommended to turn it off for several minutes a few times each week.

How are you watching Western channels -- paid or free apps ?
It's an Android box loaded with hundreds of channels.

Drag your mouse cursor up from the bottom of the screen, there should be a row of symbols across the bottom.
Select the square box, it will show all closed apps running in the background.
Click on the X in the top right corner of each one to close it completely.
Which box are you using ?? Many are only capable of receiving up to 100mb. even if 3BB are sending 1000
Ookla speedtest will show you
It was all working fine up to last Sunday when I was able to watch football with little or no buffring so I don't think it's the capacity of the box.
The box is called HK1 btw.

What is buffering?
You Tube streams
Netflix streams
AMAZON Prime Streams
Disney streams
Legal locally available subscription and free tv channels
Everything on my Android box (basically Western TV channels). If I watch Youtube or stream Netflix directly on my TV there is no buffring.

Basic maintenance may help.
Clear cached data for all apps from the settings/storage menu
Ensure apps are completely closed after use
If you have a system cleaner ie Clean Master use it regularly
Once a week. turn off and unplug the router for 10-15 minutes.
This clears the memory cache in the router.
I cleare the cache regularly and turn the unit off every day. Don't know how to ensure apps are closed except to exit them.

Is the android box connected via WiFi? If so, move it a short distance from where it is and try again.
When my internet is working well I use the WIFI connection. I do have a LAN cable that I connect to it as well when I attempt to watch the football games but it never makes much of a difference. If the speed is down it starts buffring even when the LAN cable is attached.

Done a speedtest?
Yes, but the tests don't show any slowdown here in Thailand. They rarely do. When I test against a sever in Europe or the US the results are a different matter, from acceptable to useless.
3BB and the other ISP's know full well when there is a slowdown in the connection abroad but they never admit it.

Since last Monday I'v been unable to use my Android box as it's constantly buffering. I have a 750 Baht/month package with 3BB and I live in south Pattaya. Anyone else with the same problem?

I have a 750/month 3BB Internet package and have lately had issues using my Android box (basically unusable due to buffring). I have had a look at my internet speed with Ookla (seems fine) but when I run Pingplotter I get another story. What does it mean when I have such a high packet loss on my private IP router address.
And are there more people out there with the same problem? I tink it started Monday or Tuesday (I live in south Pattaya).

My Yamaha Aerox has just passed 1000 km and apparently a service is required. Could anyone recommend a decent placew to do this? Used to have a PCX and had a really great Honda garage that did quality work so am looking for something similar.

That seems way too high ! at the most maybe 100-200 for a new switch
( they do look a little bit special but bet they can be found at the electronics shops on Theprasit road and may be even in Amorn in the basement of Tukcom )
I assume there are no integrated circuit/chips on the other side of the board that might have warranted the inflated price ?
Sorry, I'm a technical idiot so don't know what that means. When/if I get the piece back I'll post a pic of the other side too. I would have just taken it to Tukcom and had them (try to) fix it but there are quite a number of wires that have to be reconnected and I didn't take a pic of the unit before he disconnected (and cut off 2 of) the wires. Will try another guy suggested by Jeffr2.

That should be a simple, quick and cheap fix with a soldering iron then.
Had an electrical guy come and take it away. He said he would be able to find a replacement, Called an hour later and said replacement not available but he could fix it for 1600 Baht. Yes, onethousandsixhundred Baht. Naturally my Mrs said no in a much more polite manner than I would have. He called 5 min later and the price was now 1000 Baht. At this point I wouldn't have agreed to 10 Baht so will try to get the unit back and find another guy.
-
Guess I found the problem. There's a short-circuit on the circuit board. Sparks are flying if I press the first fan button hard. Not something I can change myself or even know where to order.
Hopefully the electric guy will finally show up tomorrow after having stood me up today (what a surprise!)

Tried to help? Let's agree to disagree on that.

Does your extractor fan also have a light on it? Does the light work? Are the cookers / burners electric? If so, are they working?
Just wondering if the extractor fan and cookers are on the same circuit and simply tripped the breaker.
Yes, the light in the extractor is working. The buttons for the fans sit right next to the light switch and they started acting up a few weeks ago, meaning they had to be pushed on/off several times. Finally nothing happened when we switched on the fans.

I think my guy might be available. Quite a few here have used him before. No English, but excellent work. Done lots of commercial jobs in and around Pattaya including many establishments in Central Festival. Top notch. Honest. Fair prices. My wife can help translate if necessary.
Toom.

Thanks, I'll have my Mrs give him a call if the guy we've found and who's coming in this afternoon gives me a crazy quote.

Handyman for leaky roof
in Pattaya
Posted
Because I live in a gated community in Pattaya and it's called a village. The "motosai" guys have been asked as well as the security guy and the somtam lady and the soi dogs,
