Yep. I moved from Patong because of Internet. I feel the pain.
But why focus on a few thousand expats when you can get them and millions of tourists? Or to say, what would motivate CAT to have offer better coverage with less sign-up BS? Tourists.
Thai Air and Air Asia don't fly to Phuket so us expats can pop up to BKK for fun. Starbucks isn't here just to make me happy. It all flows from tourists. That is the opertunity for CAT. And we (expats) win.
But I will stop dreaming that logic fits in somewhere over here ;-)
BTW, the CAT DO service current is very bad on Nanai unless you are up on the hill.
In general Patong is low on the services priority list for local officials. If you want phone lines, internet, better roads, steady power, steady water then you need to move from Patong. Strange as that is the biggest tourist/expat market.
