    Cheap very high speed Internet for Bali

    @ukcouple: That is quite strange. I am unable to connect to the link you supplied. I use Firefox as my browser? My download speed is pretty much rock solid, might range between 195 Mbps and 212 Mbps at any time of day, seems to be reasonably impervious to typical virtual rush hour slowdowns.

    Cheap very high speed Internet for Bali

    @ukcouple: Yes, I am using the Biznet HOME 2C Package. Until recently, the IPS providers for testing on the Ookla Speedtest were all Bali-centric. Now, all those listed are in Jakarta, and none of those which used to be shown in Bali, are displayed. I am guessing that might explain the Ping...

    Cheap very high speed Internet for Bali

    Wow, how weird is that? They appear to offer the 455 Mbps guaranteed download speed service for the same price as the 100Mbps guaranteed download speed service? I imagine that most home users would be more concerned about download speeds than upload speed in the 450 Mbps range.

    Cheap very high speed Internet for Bali

    I never meant to suggest that people should move to Indonesia, nor Bali for the cheap internet, nor to expect a T3 connection. I merely wanted to share my own personal experience, as a Bali resident of 27 years with other forum members, who may be in need of such information. I test my...

    Cheap very high speed Internet for Bali

    Cheap is good. I greatly prefer life and the weather in Bali to the U.K. But I'll keep it in mind should I ever feel the need for an even faster connection.

    C317 versus B211 online onshore WNA sponsored by WNI wife

    As previously described, in another thread, I have always enjoyed my semi annual day trips to Singapore For the same reasons posted earlier, to which objections were raised for nonrelevance. The Immigration website closes in 2 minutes. Oh good, not for another hour, still plugging away filling...

    C317 versus B211 online onshore WNA sponsored by WNI wife

    I have come to understand (assuming that it is accurate on the website) that the C317 is valid for periods of 6 months, a year or 2 years, at an appreciably lower cost than the B211A. I am virtually forging ahead into the great unknown. I am NOT sure if coming to the end of my B211A, this is an...

    C317 versus B211 online onshore WNA sponsored by WNI wife

    I want to apply for a new onshore visa, through the online Immigration system. My Balinese wife is already enrolled as a Sponsor in the system (hallelujah what a PITA), and she now sponsors our Ex-WNI daughter's ITAS. I am curious :unsure: if there might be an advantage to applying for the...

    Folks with experience on C318 repatriation visa please help.

    Dewi is still a double citizenship holder, as we haven't made the declaration of single nationality yet. WNA-Ibu WNI, born in Bali never left Indonesia.

    Folks with experience on C318 repatriation visa please help.

    I am so incredibly grateful for all the help provided with this bureaucratic stuff. (y) Our second daughter Dewi, is just about to turn 20, and we want to do this in a much more timely manner than for her older sister, and thus avoid some serious financial consequences. Trying to research it...

    You probably saw this one offered by the same vendor?

    Any made for Netflix content is filmed in 4K. The Premium Family Plan also displays in 4K, unlike the slightly cheaper packages used by people on their phones. BliBli is another online one to try...you don't need lots of them, right? There is probably one lurking around somewhere, albeit like...

    You might want to try any hole in the wall kind of little mom & pop stores in your area, the kind that would be less likely to have set up on Tokopedia or try Shoppee. Try that 40" one? You no doubt noticed that the price on that HD set was more than lots of the current 4K models with all the...

    I found this 40" one on Tokopedia. I doubt you will be able to find a larger one, but TOKOPEDIA is probably the easiest place to search, and hopefully you find what you are after. This one has an HDMI input. I found one...

    Cheap very high speed Internet for Bali

    I particularly enjoy that Biznet doesn't throtte the speed at exactly 200, and probably about 98% of the time it is slightly higher than Max speed promised. The old IPS provider line, about Speeds UP TO *****Mbps, while meant to suggest average speeds in a particular neck of the woods, has as a...

    Cheap very high speed Internet for Bali

    Remembering back to the days of my Speedy internet connection in Bali, at a time when just being able to access the Internet from home was great. I have been using Biznet HOME for years, and at times it has been less than stellar. I recently had to renew my contract and I was surprised to...

    I use a 43" LG UHD TV as my monitor at my desk, and we have a couple more downstairs. The LG Dual Inverter Technology used in their ECO Style air conditioners is very good, and cost and energy efficient. The user can select the amount of energy to run at, from 100%, 80%, 60%, 40% which is...
