TLDR : Answer Summary
In Thailand, several internet providers are recommended for those living in the countryside. Many users mention 3BB as a highly reliable option with good coverage, especially in rural areas. AIS is also frequently mentioned for its performance and reliability, while TOT is praised for being fast and affordable. Dtec 5G and True are also suggested options, depending on specific locations. It's advised to ask local residents for their recommendations, as internet service quality can vary significantly depending on the exact area.
Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC)

WARNING: Only trust Thai government websites with .go.th domains or Thai agent websites with .co.th or .in.th domains, as these require verified Thai registration and cannot be registered anonymously.

The official TDAC form is available at tdac.immigration.go.th, which uses the official .go.th government domain.

The services by AGENTS CO., LTD. does NOT charge any fees for arrivals within 72 hours. If you need to book more than 72 hours in advance, there is a service fee of $8.

Do not trust other sites pretending to be a trustworthy agency. Pay attention to delivery time - the service operated by AGENTS CO., LTD. has 1 minute delivery time for arrivals within 72 hours.

Don't fall for sites pretending to be tdac.in.th or the official government tdac.immigration.go.th website. Always double-check the exact domain in your browser.

Scam services may take days to process your application, others may not even do anything. With these TDAC scam services you also need to worry about double charges.

Please watch out for TDAC misinformation spread by fugitive Jesse Nickles and his many fake accounts on Quora, TripAdvisor, Reddit, and other platforms.

Depends where you stay, ask around but based on my experience and having moved around quite a lot, 3BB is the best.

@Mark ******
best ask your neighbours as speed and reliability varies throughout the country

All are good. We live amongst the rice paddies. Excellent and great value internet and mobile phone service in Thailand.

In my first condo, my only choice was true because they installed the fiber already. Maybe that was a lie but I’m happy with them so far. Even let me use my own router
Max **********
From Mae Sai to Ranong AIS no problems and good speed.

I believe AIS has just brought out 3bb making them the biggest provider. I have always used AIS and they have never let me down. Wife has dtac and as soon as she hits the countryside has problems

I tried 3 or 4 Internet providers, my current one 3BB are proved best. I have 1GB fibre optic, I live in the countryside.
Michael ********
Subjective could be true could be dtac could be 3bb. Ask people who live in that location
Henrik *****
Ask the locals at the destination
Steve ***************
Dtec 5G has worked everywhere for me so far
Nick *******
3bb is the best provider for coverage in Thailand, including the villages

Thailand is a big place , I'd suggest to ask in the area you plan to stay and see what the locals have and is the best.
