Internet connectivity

[geezer2005]

I am hoping to do a long term rental on either a house or condo in the not too distant future.

I will need to be able to use my phone for business. It is a plug and play system which needs to be able to plug into an ethernet socket via a modem.

When I viewed condos in the past, everything was WiFi, hence, I wouldn't be able to plug the phone in!

Does anyone know if the houses come with modems (being individual buildings), and would there be a possibility to have a modem installed into a condo?

Thanks in advance.

Hi. Other option in a place with WiFi available would be to use a WiFi repeater or Extender.

Not only it would improve the quality of the WiFi, but many of them also have an Ethernet port  

 

Example of such device (about 400B or less) :

Can be found on Lazada and in many many many other places

That would be perfect.

I wonder if the signal would be strong enough to use for VOiP though.

If ya staying long term and internet is important then ya could have internet installed direct to room. You would then have your own private access with router. Minimum I believe is 6 month contract, it will set you back aporox 4000bt for the 6 months depending on what company you go with.

So you can do this in a condo? If so, thats exactly what I need.

Yes, geezer, Last 2 places I have stayed, one on 7th-floor and one on the 12th floor both had a direct internet connection to the room, on a private router.

You might have to ask the owner first and or some owners have it installed already and may be he will be willing to pay for the full year and you pay for half in higher rental to cover his cost.

All but one of my apartments have direct line to the apartment with a router installed so you can connect by line and or wifi.

I do not charge on top of the monthly rental price its included in it.

This is the way to go, recently when renting in VT6, they had the same.

I was able to play youtube and netflix with no problem.

When you have shared wifi with another user, it is hit and miss, because if they are downloading or gaming it can suck.

JDM has some nice properties fully furnished, worth a look.

No, I am not on commission, I have seen a couple of JDM's places and I know the high standard JDM works to.

Correct , some companies demand 12 months up front ( 3bb) some only 1st month up front ( TMN ).

I can also vouch for JDMs properties.
