Hi ANTON!:

This is what I found.

The Starbucks locations are on pages 7 & 8.

Good luck!

Hi, the best "free" wi-fi in Bangkok so far is the Starbucks located in Siam Discovery Centre in 4th floor. AFAIK, the free bandwith is provided courtesy of Apple Centre located just adjacent to the coffee shop. It is the best place for "mac-wifi-surfers" since you have the 2 of best places - Starbucks and Apple Centre.

Good luck.

You can check this link.

However, Apple Centre in Siam Discovery Centre is far better than any other mac shops in Bangkok. You should try visit the place and check the wifi.

Good luck!

Will be off to Bangkok in a week for a few days and I was wondering if anyone has updates on WiFi there.

I hope my hotel's got it...
