Yes, truly love Axtel. We also use use them at work.
Are tehy available all over the country?
-
We have been looking at places where we want to get our "western hemisphere" home. We like Nicaragua a lot, direct flights to Houson, low cost of living. But Mexico is certainly in the running. Can you get service like that down south?
-
They don't cover all of Guadalajara but inside their fiber coverage they are currenty the best offering in Mexico.
They also have :
10/10 for $23.54 USD
30/30 for $33.10 USD -
Axtel only offers their Axtel Extremo fiber in these cities:
Aguascalientes
Ciudad Juárez
Ciudad de México
Guadalajara
León
Monterrey
Puebla
Querétaro
San Luis Potosí
Toluca -
Hmmm... none on our prime list to look at. Any of those that you'd highly recommend?
-
For now they only cover the center of Mexico, and Guadalajara and Monterrey being the other 2 most important cities in the country.
-
Aguascalientes, Queretaro , and Leon. Medium size cities with most of the things you can find in big cities such as Monterrey and Guadalajara, but without the traffic.
-
Comcast 25/5 for about $65/month, no tv or phone.

Apple Creek, OH
10/768k
Cable
MCTV Ohio
$50(guess, included with rent)Can't even begin to tell you all how much this "Grinds my gears". The www.onecommunity.org fiber loop is on the pole in my front yard and that is the best internet we can get at home currently! If someone has a little cash to invest I'd love to start a wisp in the area!

Guelph, ON, Canada
300/175 FTTH
Unlimited
$60/month, 2 yr contract
Bell Canada -
That's an amazing speed and price!! I know Guelph, not that far from Buffalo.
-
Yeah. It's a new home and we got lucky that we're in a mature neighbourhood but only the 3 newly built homes have FTTH. Everyone else has the choice of DSL or Rogers cable.
Bell also offers a 1Gb/175 connection but at $30 more per month. I am not even near saturating the current 300Mb so even though would love the bragging rights of having a Gb DL speed, I'm not going to bother just yet. Now if the speed was a synchronous Gb DL and UL I'd be all over that.
-
As someone without a home of their own (not even a long term rental to call home) it makes me sad that I have no means of getting nice connections anymore.

Well, you can console yourself with the fact that free wifi is going to be faster than what's available to a home in my area, maybe.

This doesn't make sense at all. They have the infrastructure in your neighborhood, yet they won't install it into existing homes?

It's a big cost. And really for that Coax can do just as well. And doesn't confuse people with new equipment.

I'm willing to accept that as long as the old customers can get the 300/175 for the same price as the new FTTH. If not, I'd be pitching a fit!

Are you going to pay to have a fiber buried from the node/pole to your house? This is why they don't get to have it.
Hell even POTS, if I wanted a new line ran from pole to house because reasons I had to pay for it.
