tkessler Posted August 15, 2018 Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 A great meeting today at Ilox. Lyle Zeiglar and myself, along with a couple of contractors, and Walter Latham from Vista Alegre met with Jessica Avila and Victor Sahagun, the company director. Ilox has been working furiously on their network planning. In a few more weeks they will start stringing fiber from Ajijic centro outward. At that time, the window for prepaid signups to do so at the current rates will expire. Signups after that will be at the new inflation adjusted rates. All prepaids will receive priority installation. After that, no later than 6 months from now and probably much sooner, Ilox will begin accepting regular subscriptions. They expect to have Chapala to Jocotepec fully covered within 8 months. Developments like Roca Azul no later than one year and maybe sooner. They are opening offices in Ajijic, Jocotepec, and Chapala. A progress email will be sent out to all signups next week or two. A dream coming true!. Thanks to all who helped!

tugwestend Posted August 16, 2018 Report Share Posted August 16, 2018 Question; Why is fiber being strung from Ajijic outward? With the existing line going through Joco it would seem install would be from West to East. Most subscribers in Ajijic? Potential market? Disappointing for those of us West of SJC where the service isn't even at 2 meg download, signed up early to support the project and will be the last served.

tkessler Posted August 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2018 @Tugwestend: The fiber does come from Joco but Ajijic centro is the center of highest number of sign ups so they will start installing them first and move outward. It will only take a few months to connect everybody who prepaid. They are very committed to prioritizing everyone who did that. Much thanks for signing up. @Vetteforron: They are looking closely at Roca Azul. Because its close to the Joco main line they know they can service it fairly easily, but from a priority point of view it will be in the second stage of build out. How fast they can get in there depends on how fast they can execute the prepaids and the first stage. Best thing you can do at this point is just get as many people as you can there to sign up. Show them the interest and the numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your professional calm and dedication in the face of criticism was most impressive. I see everyone's jumping on the bandwagon now that there is no risk.

Artsnob's question seems to refer to future rates: " What is the monthly charge going to be tv and internet do not néed phone" I imagine others would like the answer to that question... those who did not already sign up and pay a year in advance.

ComputerGuy Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 I'm fine with that. What I am questioning is how would anybody know without contacting the source? Why ask here? Why would we have any more information that that which has been provided? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
