  1. The new at the time reason of sending funds for long term stay was introduced in order to ensure (as far as possible) that the funds would arrive with the designation that they have come from overseas, to satisfy certain immigration requirements. Prior to that users had to call (Transfer)Wise to tag their account to ensure this happened, and the transfer process is handled differently to ensure the overseas designation is realised.
  2. Just got a chance to try that yesterday and no difference. It's all going on the back burner now as the no-name router is now heading back to Thailand.
  3. It was explained earlier in the thread that the flight carries on to Dubai so they're checking no-one gets off that shouldn't.
  4. It operated as a commercial airport in the past so much of your list may still be there and some still required/used by the military presence.

  6. Embassy is run by the Home Office. Passports issued by the Foreign Office. Don't think you'll get an answer from the Consular Team here.
  7. You can use your Qatar Avios on Bangkok Airways flights if that's any use to you? Still a bit longwinded to book but availability seems OK (for BKK-USM anyway which is what I've been checking).
  8. Is that even a serious question or just a poor attempt at shlt stirring?
  9. I'm away for the weekend just now but will look for a setting when I return, although I don't recall seeing one. The EE SIM isn't roaming though, but maybe the cheap router doesn't know that!
  10. Thanks anyway, it's been an interesting learning experience for me.
  11. That's what I may end up doing, but one of them will be going back to Thailand and I was hoping to take the "better" one there (as I spend more time there) and leave the no-name Chinese one here in the UK. CMNET appears to be a China Mobile setting. Would that work on EE network in the UK? I tried it anyway with a variation of Authentification Types but still no good. It's a PAYG SIM. I tried the old 3G APN settings from your previous link but no difference (without the IPv4 bit), and the TP-Link article doesn't seem to suggest anything new except it does allude to IPv4 which I was unable to force on my router. Saving APN profiles has been suggested in a couple of places but the router doesn't seem to support that, only making entries followed by "Save and Apply". I've been rebooting after each change too. SIM card is unlocked. I may be able to try it in another location next week. I've also now tried it with my O2 SIM from my phone and it got an internet connection straight away with APN set to "Auto". That was mentioned in one of your previous links and tried with no success. This is part of the router interface screen. I think I've been through each setting but no way to force IPv4 as has been suggested in a couple of places. Any suggestions where it could be? I appreciate the help from everyone.
