Is high-speed home Internet access available? How long does it typically take to install it after arrival?
Yes, but goes out sometimes. Some people get a backup internet service. - May 2024
Yes! Several companies are available here. Install for us took about four days. They initially indicated it would be longer but we offered to pay extra and they made it happen. - Jul 2021
Yes. Just a few days by to install. Mostly prepaid and mostly reliable. - Nov 2020
It took the company a few weeks to show up at my house but once they got it installed, it's been fast enough for my needs. Many apartments come with internet already installed. - May 2017
It's not really high speed but it is good enough for streaming. Cost varies but we paid $100 per month. - Oct 2016
My internet was great. It was provided free by my apartment building, so I don't know the company or cost. - Feb 2015
We use Ezeecom, it is pretty good, I can stream movies and video easily, though at peak times it can be slow. It goes out every once in a while but is usually back up after an hour or so. We pay US$175 a month for 4GB unlimited service. There are cheaper deals too though. - Aug 2013
Internet cannot be described as high-speed here. Our 1 MB connection is almost $90/month, and it goes out occasionally. Things have gotten better since we arrived, but it still has a long way to go. The latest thing is to use 3G modems that take 3G cell signals and route them through your computer. These are cheap (maybe $20-$30/month, depending on usage, for a 1 MB connection), but I've heard mixed reviews. - Jan 2012
Internet is pricey, for high speed internet through EZCom was around $100 per month. - Aug 2011
Very expensive, at least $100 / month. - Aug 2011
It was included in my rent, so I am not sure how much it was - but I know it is expensive - and the speed was not that good. - Oct 2010
US$80 to $100 for a DSL line with some limit to capacity. See www.online.com.kh or www.citylink.com.kh. The first has the best customer service, but slightly higher prices. The latter is a bit fly by night, avoiding taxes to reduce costs. Reasonable dial-up accounts and prepaid internet cards available. A few upscale locations have wireless available, but costs up to $5/hr. Most upscale hotels have internet available, but not usually included in the room costs; make sure to ask. - Feb 2008
