Hey guys!
I wanna ask you guys something...
How is the broadband service over there?
If you stay at the hostel there, does the internet provided?
If yes, how was it? Bad all the time?
Thanks ~

If you stay at the hostel, free WiFi is provided (DeConnexion - free registration required).  Max speed depends on the numbers of users online.  Last time I used it it was only average with predictable downtimes (aka A LOT).

Streamyx is available over there but only max of 1Mbps.  However, it depends on which housing phase you are going to stay at.  Some areas only get max speed of 100KB/s but I usually get 170KB/s-ish.
