Dmitry2222 Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 (edited) Hi, i am living in Chachoengsao and last two month has internet connection troubles. Looking like connection interrupted every few minutes: other symptoms: * audio and video calls hanging * video stream hanging * abortion of a download from a browser Provider is TrueMove. Two times technicians checked home router and decided that it is ok and looking like problem with network outside the home. I got the answer from the TrueMove - wait until we will fix it. Well... Two months and nothing are changed. Do we have a chance that TrueMove will fix it or it is the time to change provider?

fdsa Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 try to disable IPv6 in network adapter settings. I use Truemove 3G and get constant interruptions too but not that often - every few hours rather than every few minutes. BTW I never had these on DTAC so I'm changing provider back after my 1 year contract with True finishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eindhoven Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 I always have a back up connection in the form of an unlimited data SIM. From a mere 1390 for 12 months of an up to 10 Mbps(1.25 MB/s) data connection, it's useful thing to have. Indeed only 10 Mbps but then at least no more: * audio and video calls hanging * video stream hanging * abortion of a download from a browser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandPapillon Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 nice idea with the SIM backup package? what is it called? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomazbodner Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 (edited) Can see the same on True gigabit fiber connection with the Huawei router (that processes TrueVisions, has fiber input, and LAN/Wifi out). Basically one box for all, not 2 boxes like most other providers. This is in Bangkok. Edited May 11, 2021 by tomazbodner 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DTAC proposes unlimited 10 Mbps for 777 bth/month. it's strange that TrueMove can't fix the network in the 21st century. Or it is a new normal in Thailand... ????

Or it is a new normal in Thailand... ???? Nope. My AIS SIM uploads at 8 to 10 Mbps(around 1 MB/s) Similarly downloads. Forget about what they propose. Why pay 777 when you can get it for 116 per month? https://www.lazada.co.th/products/sim-net-dtac-dtac-10mbps-12-muntookdee-i1154204644-s2700554573.html Though before you commit, get a normal DTAC SIM and buy a small data package to test the speeds at your place. If you can achieve more than 10 Mbps up and down then get the DTAC package. If DTAC no good at your place you might want to avoid Truemove H since you aren't enamoured with them. So the next test would be AIS. Example: https://www.lazada.co.th/products/ais-8-mbps-1-i610402783.html Still far below 777 baht per month. Works out at 183.25 per month. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eindhoven Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Just ran an upload speed test on my AIS 10 Mbps SIM: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmitry2222 Posted May 11, 2021 Author Share Posted May 11, 2021 (edited) May be upload speed for mobile internet depends from device where a sim is put in. I tried IPhone 11 and share wifi with desktop and got 1Mpb/s. Perhaps, it is better to buy router which supports SIM card.

Eindhoven Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Just now, Dmitry2222 said: Dtac, unlimited 10 Mbp/s What download speed are you achieving? https://testmy.net Have noticed on occasion that DTAC upload speed does not match the download; but not usually by that much. Have experienced 4 & 5 Mbps. With AIS I get the full speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are achieving 20 Mbps download on a 10 Mbps SIM but only 1 Mbps upload? Perhaps you can post the actual test result here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that helps. True fiber speed achieves 80 Mbps for download and 60 Mbps for upload. One big minus here is that connection breaks as was described in the first post. 7 minutes ago, Dmitry2222 said: Upload speed is up to 3 Mbp/s, and yes 20 Mbp/s i got today morning. It is speed of the mobile internet by DTAC. But mobile is more stable i.e. i do not see breaks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just didn't do any research beforehand. That allows them to pluck the low hanging fruit from the tree. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomazbodner Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 (edited) Should be quiet yesterday. Now True FTTX is totally out for the day in Bang Sue due to some major incident. Not sure what happened, but fiber is down for landline, internet and cable TV. That said, they are offering 3 days mobile data for free to those affected. Not sure it has anything to do with their "network improvement" work done over the past weekend. เรียนผู้ใช้บริการหมายเลข fiber number deleted ทรูออนไลน์ขออภัยในความไม่สะดวก เนื่องจากขณะนี้เกิดเหตุขัดข้องในพื้นที่ บางซื่อ ส่งผลกระทบต่อการใช้งานอินเทอร์เน็ต โทรศัพท์บ้าน และการรับชมทรูวิชั่นส์ชั่วคราว เจ้าหน้าที่กำลังดำเนินการแก้ไขปัญหาอย่างเร่งด่วน คาดว่าจะแล้วเสร็จวันที่ 12/05/2021 17:59:18 โดยประมาณ พร้อมจะส่ง SMS แจ้งผลการแก้ไขให้ทราบอีกครั้ง เพื่อให้คุณใช้งานอย่างต่อเนื่อง ขอมอบเน็ตมือถือ 3GB นาน 3 วันฟรี เพียงใช้เบอร์ทรูมูฟเอช *799*11*fiber number deleted*activation code deleted# โทรออก Edited May 12, 2021 by tomazbodner add SMS from True Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simple Jack Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 I'd guess the router is cooking itself. The ones they use are <deleted>. I'd ask for a replacement? See if that sorts it out. Personally iv'e been through three of them with true. Ended up investing in a Cisco unit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandPapillon Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 maybe it's an IPsec issue, limiting the number of ping you can send, to avoid some kind of ping flooding by hackers or bots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no problems with DTAC but switched to Truemove for network reservation purposes (because I had DTAC sims in both PC and smartphone), but that appeared to be a huge mistake. I think I will try AIS sim next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AIS fibre issues the past two days My Net has been weird the past couple of days. I use AIS fibre. Strangely it's dropping me or I can't get in the first time I try. I also noticed ESET couldn't connect its live Grid which has never been a problem. This morning it dropped once so i have to reconnect. Now it seems okay again. I'm starting to wonder if it's the router reacting to the hot weather. They also use the Chinese stuff. If not that, I'm wondering if could have switched something off on Windows or Eset. As I said it's working now, so I'll just go with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
