Tijuana - Post Report Question and Answers
Is high-speed home Internet access available? How long does it typically take to install it after arrival?
Easy and $30/month. Post sets it up and you pay for it. - Oct 2024
This is a great feature about this post. The consulate sets it up for you in advance, and you then take over the bill after you arrive. It's so nice to have internet from day one. I paid about $50 a month for the fastest internet connection available, but the standard package is about $20 a month including phone. I paid for more because we watch TV through the VPN and I thought it would make a difference, but the reality is that I didn’t notice a huge difference with the internet speed, however right before I left post I switched the speed back to the base package, and we noticed that with a VPN streaming would sometimes interrupt on the slower speed. Thus, if you plan to use a VPN I recommend getting the fastest speed. - Apr 2023
