Internet- part time

PostAuthor: Ray.Charles » April 20, 2009, 8:46 am

A fellow is staying with his lady-Thai in a village near Udon. He is an internet junkie, but does not want a monthly deal because he is not there full time, plus he will also need to get a land-line phone service first. I read here about pre-paid cell phone access to internet, but can not find the information now.

Ray click on the words "IT/Communications" at the top of this page and you will get the IT/Communications forum, with a list of similar topics previously discussed. See if they cover the answer to your question.

Just in case you can't find it, here are the two posts that enabled me to set up 12-call GPRS. The rates mentioned in the first post have changed a little. I'd like to repeat my thanks to Dave and Tim for their help -its made a big difference in my life.

Hi Rick.

1 baht per minute is correct if you are not on one of the AIS/ONE TO CALL Mobilelife plans.

mobilenet package

You can subscribe to any of their plans without leaving the comfort of your home if you wish!

Just dial *138 on your mobile phone and follow the automated instructions ie press 2 for english etc etc.
Very easy process with either Thai or English instructions.

You will be given numerous options for monthly plans just pick the one that takes your fancy.

Here are there current plans & prices:

3 hrs per month = 39 baht

6 hrs per month = 50 baht

20 hrs per month = 100 baht

100 hrs per month = 350 baht

Unlimited hours per month = 999 baht

You have no obligation & are not contracted to a certain period for any of these plans so you are able to chop & change or even cancel as your needs increase/decrease month by month.

Before you begin the process make sure you have enough credit on your phone for the plan you want if using the card top up/pay as you go system as most of us do.

Once you have gone through the process your phone credit will be deducted by the amount = to the monthly plan you opted for, you will then within a few minutes receive an sms message notifying you that your mobilelife plan has been activated.

you can now connect to the gprs/edge system.

The number i use to connect is *99***# using a Nokia if you use another make of telephone the number could well be different, i used to use an NEC & that would not connect using the above number but *99# worked just fine.

Finally the above monthly rates DO NOT include tax so add another 7% for the true & final monthly figure.
again make sure the the full amount is available for deduction from your phone credit including tax before going through the sign up procedure.


Should you wish to keep tabs on your used/unused monthly minutes you can do that at anytime by calling *139 & following the instructions (Press 2 for english etc)

Hope this helps pal.

AIS EDGE
Posted by: Tim at EdgeT

You have probably sorted this out by now, if you haven't, the settings for AIS are:

Name: AIS
Access Point Name (APN): internet
UserName: ( none required)
Password: (none required)

Leave everything else as default. It should connect up without any problems.

Regards

Tim
