@rzugnoni we had internet via satellite dish from TOT and it was fine for watching TV and internet calls. We were using it up until Covid hit 3 years ago but this time we’ve gone to 3BB 5G. Still have the satellite dish on the roof which reminds me that I must get TOT to come and take it down.

Thank you for the response. It looks like 3BB is WIFI. I believe that has less latency than satellite. I will look into that. There is also a chance that fiber optic might be available by the time our place is built.

3BB is a big broadband company. Quite popular in cities,but not so much out in the sticks.Don't go for internet via satellite. That's my personal opinion and stay away from TOT. That's the state owned company.

Thanks for the information. I am going to look for something other than satellite. I'm not sure what else is offered here as we are in a rural area. Right now I have AIS Fibre which is a fiber optic line. I know that True has a fiber optic line going along the main highway which is about 700 meters from our land that we might build on. I'm hoping that once the electrical is brought into that area in August that the fiber optic will also get there. Could you tell me if your objection to satellite is speed or reliability or both?
