Anyone know the best internet provider for living in the countryside. Thanks
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.

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

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.

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.
