Is high-speed home Internet access available? How long does it typically take to install it after arrival?

Yes. It's easy to install after arrival and inexpensive (~ $25/month). There are a couple of options, but we were happy with A1. - Jan 2023


Depends on where you live. If you live in a place that already has fiber installed, your internet is not too bad (but not as good as in the U.S.). However, if you are still on DSL, speeds can be miserable. The internet shares a line with phone and cable, and even without phone or cable your download speeds can be around 5 Mbps or less. - Jul 2018


If you live in the hills, the distance of your house and the age of the line running to your house will affect your internet speed. We have internet speed here which is slower than other less developed countries due to the fact that we are in an old house on a hillside. Downtown there is fiberoptic cable. - Apr 2016


Yes. I paid about US$50 a month for what they said was 10MB download. I generally got less than that in speed tests but my internet connection was generally sufficient to stream decent quality video. - Aug 2014


Available, not too reliable at peak hours. - Jun 2014


Depends on your definition of "High Speed". Most of the houses can get a maximum of 10 mbps down and 1 mbps up. A few houses can buy a 20 mbps package, but they are lucky if they see 14 of that. Most streaming service work without too much lag. If you use a service like unblock-us.com (to get your full bandwidth via a traditional VPN) you can get netflix, amazon prime and hulu (along with MANY others) to work. - Feb 2014
