protekme Posted July 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 Thank you Computer Guy for your explanation on Adobe. I won't update as I rarely use it. Just as I deleted Java months ago and never missed it so far. And thank you both for the interesting, informative course. I have a clearer image now on how internet works. but I cannot take sides on your disagreement yet. Good discussion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All Day Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 #2 is your best option, since you are paying for UP TO 5mb/s and you are getting everything they can provide to your location, up to that amount. We pay for up to 1 mb/s and usually get more. It simply depends upon your location, more than your package. There is no ''hasta 1mb'' package anymore. The lowest end package is ''hasta 3mbs''.

protekme Posted July 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 Since 2007, I am paying for "hasta l mb" $389.00 a month with the 100 free local calls and 100 minutes limit for Lada nacional. Regarding the free calls, I am limited with this older package. In those days, they offered 2 mb and 5 mb with more free calls, etc. I realize that Telmex might not offer 1 mb anymore, so I'm lucky they did not cut me off or force me to pay for the upgrade. Now, without asking for it, my speed is 3 mb. download and 0.29 upload. I'm happy with this as I don't do music or movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 Some time back, they doubled the allotment for the same price. This has been the history of Infinitum here. I expect it to happen again in the next year or two. EDIT: See my post below... this is obviously no longer true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComputerGuy Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 EDITED. Corrected. I had posted the business prices, not the home prices. My apologies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All Day Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 Whoa, somewhere along the line things have changed. Some of us are obviously grandfathered in. Any thoughts I had of going to 10 Mbits for $999 are long gone.... You posted prices for businesses. See the word ''negocio'' in all of the offers? That's for business owners, not homeowners. It's still $999 for 10mp for residential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All Day Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 I won't complain. I'll stick to my low rate as long as I can. I think you're missing the point. It's the same price, but for higher speeds. The $399 package used to deliver 1mbs and now it delivers up to 3mps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giltner68 Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 And, interestingly, I paid for 5mb for years and never got more than 1.7 and left, came back recently paying for 3mb and am actually getting 3? So, I over paid for years for zip and now I get twice the rate for less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I would really like to find out what extra bandwidth I can get for the $199 pesos additional on the middle plan. Anyone tried this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
