@Pauline ******
is VPN really necessary ? I don't use it because it slows down my WiFi connectionPauline *******
@Steve ****
I use it to access BBC iPlayer and other UK TV catch up. We actually watch very little live TV channels because of time difference.

no I have never used a VPN, in the UK it's necessary to hide your identity so you don't get caught but I don't think Thailand go after consumers as strongly as the UK does.

Yes it's easy, too many options to go into, assess them all at your leisure when you're settled.
