Download 54Mbps, upload 13.9Mbps. Iphone. Signal strength 3 bars. Why is it so slow? Anything need to configure?

Anyone read in tnc or experience that roaming quota limited to only certain cities in thailand?

Got such thing?
roaming is countries - not cities lah.

i think if that country's city no network coverage, then cannot put the blame on eight liao..

If not in tnc then they screwed up, as I have no roaming in thailand for days once i out of the city I landed in. While my friend on local sim continued to have uninterrupted service throughout the trip.

The strange thing is when I tried manual connection, the signal from eight's roaming partner, dtac, is there but it would not let me get connected to them.

Bottom line, beware if you traveling to the areas outside of the city you landed in.

i have been in northeast thailand for almost 2 week, and had not encountered any interupption. i'm connected to TrueMove, as DTAC doesn't really works upon my arrival in Bangkok. had been using TrueMove since then, and will be here for another 2 weeks. used up almost 6gb of the apac data. trying to tong till 18, for the renewal, so i dont have to buy Malaysia Hotlink data roaming package. also i'm at the rural side, and not in the city centre.
