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

Yes. Organized through the Embassy ECA. I recommend bringing an extender as signal strength can be low or struggle to get through concrete walls. - May 2022

We have fiber-optic and it's great. It took about a month to get it set up as they had to run it to our complex. Most people get internet within two weeks of arrival. ADSL is significantly slower, but also cheaper. - Oct 2017


Fiber optic internet is pretty fast & reliable. About $60/month for ~50 MbPS. I can't speak for non-embassy folks, but the employee association takes care of the internet hook-up, and it took about 2 weeks. - Oct 2017
