Stable internet
Hello guys
I am new on here, so excuse the ignorance.
I have lived in S.E.Asia for years, currently in Philippines, ( real shit hole and I hate every second) Even the cockroaches carry small arms.....
I support myself teaching English online. (ZZZZ yeah I know)!
SO.... what are the speeds like? Is the internet reasonable? How about prices and how easy for foreigners to get it set up? Any one recommend a good hot spot?
I prefer classroom teaching but maybe Phnom Penh better for that?
Cheers

Re: Stable internet
If you think the Philippines is a shit hole you'll be disappointed in Cambodia.
But on the plus side the internet can be good depending on who you go with, how much you pay and which way the wind is blowing. Plus the frequent power cuts.
Oh and not forgetting the new visa situation which doesn't like nomads, teachers, whore mongerers, or young retirees. You could be all I don't know.
Good luck!

I pay 16 bucks a month for this. Very easy set up.

Re: Stable internet
from my experience, internet connection is very good for a reasonable price (most companies do a deal, pay 5 months get 1 - 3 months free which works out at around $12pm)
I work from home most days and internet is up apart from a couple of hours roughly once a month, but can always tether your phone or go to a cafe nearby (every cafe/bar will have half decent wifi). I also spread bet stocks and have never been overly concerned with the internet connection.
Prices for locals and foreigners are the same, all prices advertised on their websites. Very easy to set up
FYI I am based in central Phnom Penh, which would have by far the best wifi coverage and least black/brownouts in the country

Guy answers the question with caveats another guy posts a trolling response.

If you've nothing better to do than criticize posters then I suggest you have a word with yourself.

It was neither a troll nor a criticism. It was a vladimiresque pun!bangkokhooker wrote: ↑Sun Oct 15, 2017 11:59 amGuy answers the question with caveats another guy posts a trolling response.
