When you know what you pay and what you get are two separated things, you know better. The issue in my post (if a person took the time to read as it's intended) deals with the TECHNOLOGY deployed NATION WIDE, not quality of services; again one must use a distinctive set of rulers to know how to differentiate one another...
Not one single country in LA currently owns better technology NATION WIDE as the DR does in the tele-communications sector, period.
If you are really an engineer i have friend Engineers in Centennial here in puerto rico that work on your network over there they will laugh of how outdated ITT Systems from the 1970's they had for national interconnection i also know very well in casa de campo some of the top Engineers from Codetel maybe they could clarify it for me once again!!!!!! stop dreaming!!!!!!! I love the dominican republic but don't insult the intelligence of the forumers here.
It's sad that "some" need to use nationality or labels to defend an unsustainable point with lack of support.
But again, one must level with equal knowledge on both sides of the argument...

This is complete Bull********* you do not see reality the best in L.A Brasil, Mexico, Chile, Argentina, Panama are very much more advance that the D.R And not to mention Puerto rico Speednet.com global stats puts Puerto rico with the Highest Broadband Speeds in Latin America and the second in the Hemisphere after the U.S.
You like to talk figures let's talk:
DR: Highest recorded Average Speed 745 KPBS ( Average)
Highest recent recorded Speed 1.2 MB In la Romana so far 2008
Puerto Rico Highest recorded Average Speed 3 911 KPBS 3.9 MB ( Average)
Highest Recent Recorded Speed 14 251 KPBS 14.2 MB
You say those speeds are only in San Juan Or Ponce or the Biggest cities
THe Island of Vieques which is an oversees municipality Recorded 1.9 MB today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is the most remote there is????????
I want to also point out what the Cia Factbook says about the telecomunications of the D.R
An I Quote::
Dominican Republic
Relatively efficient system based on Micro-wave radio relay networks
Available fixed lines: 897,000 (2007)
DR Population : 9,365.818
You want to come out with the %%%%%%
Puerto Rico
Modern System Integrated with the U.S by High Capacity Submarine Cable and Interlsat with high speed data capacity
Available fixed lines 1,038,000 (2005)
Puerto rico Population: 3,944,259
%%%%%%%%
You also could go into wired.com: or FDI.Com or the World Bank
Puerto rico has almost 1000% more internet Penetration as well as the Highest number of subscribers per capita for Broadband and DSL in Latin america.
Also go to Grupocarso.com or Americamovil.com and there you will read the precentage of Fiberoptics in Puerto rico as well which is the most advance system in Latin America.
