I am staying in an area where the only internet you can get will be through a dongle that plugs into a USB port on your computer. The one I purchased is through MetFone, a local provider.

Here are the results from Speedtest.net:

That's acceptable for me. It looks like metfone is the best provider. That beats Indonesia (except Jakarta)

Thailand spoiled me. I had a n 8 Megabit connection there, for 1,000 THB (about $33 USD) / month. It was nice, but the upload was no faster than I have here. The plan I have is $12 USD to start. I am not sure what to do after, except to reload the SIM in it, which you can do through the menu. (It is very similar to the SmartBro dongle I used at one point, in the Philippines. You can even send text messages through the menu as well.)

 

Looks good to me!

 

Yeah Rick,

 

It isn't the speed I had in Thailand, but it will work. And, considering it is through a dongle attached to a laptop, you will have service anywhere there is MetFone cell coverage, which seems to be everywhere.

 

All pages seem to load fine, so I have no complaints, so far.

Ezecom has stated that, if the guys who own this place agree to it, they (Ezecom) will run a fiber optic line here, offering two packages:

 

1. 1 Megabit down / 512 up Kbps up

2. 2 Megabits down / 1 Megabit up
