Who knows what about Totalplay TV?

Their website sez fiber optic.

I guess that means that they have wired our community?

$669 for 40 megs + telephany & spanish streaming tv

OK so I was walking home on the horse path in La Floresta and I saw a huge wheel of wire. I looked at it and it was Fiber Optic backbone cable. I asked the contracted workers who they were working for and they said Total play. I than asked them if San Antonio is getting wired up and they said yes.

They have been all over Mirasol and Riberas below and around Mirasol yesterday and today. Big operation with lots of workers and they told me TotalPlay as well. Website looks like it may offer much more TV option than iLox does and they have internet plans up to 500 mb down. Will be interesting to see how this develops, especially since Shaw seems to be getting a bit more problematic.

Person at Soriana's by south door if you want more info about Totalplay.

Heard from a customer yesterday who has totalPlay in Jocotepec. Some competitor has also arrived and, while installing their own fibre, "accidentally" cut the TotalPlay cables last week. While he says he likes the speed, it's taken a week for anyone to come out and repair the lines.

Our Totalplay is booked for install Thursday. 100 mb for 629 pesos with a 350 peso activation payable on install. We'll see.

Plaza De Toros in Chapala. They strung the new lines last week.

I was hooked up last night!
Yeah!
Easter Sunday!
Will report back when I get to set my stuff up!

Install was $170 pesos.

Totalplay is installed! 104 down and 10 up. We had a call (in english) 20 minutes ahead and the techs were very efficient. 629 per month and 150 activation.

I am in SE SAT on a privado off La Paz. Backbone fiber installed down La Paz. Wanted backup to ILOX. Saw Totalplay man installing in the privado accross street and talked to him. They called today and asked the following questions Name, Address, Email address, What service I wanted, birthday and they are supposed to come sat. somewhere from 2 to 6 pm to install. Person spoke good english. Found out more about Totalplay. They are a virtual company. No office locally. You pay cash for first month and install charges than you can pay up to 6 months . They also mentioned a bunch of places to pay. Will know more after install and I will post info. So far I am impressed. I purchased 100 down internet and a phone for 629P a month. When call was done they gave me my customer number. They seem hungry and want your business. Note call was on my ILOX phone and it disconnected twice LOL. I did warn them so they called back and laughed and said good phone!

I still haven't used my Totalplay. I haven't yet hooked up my VPN router. My wife, however, has used it and is totally satisfied.
We have the phone number, but won't be using it. I'm keeping Telmex phone, and currently still using slower speed with VPN. Hope to hook up the new VPN router soon.

Install went fine. Took about an hour. Fellow spoke good english. Gave us all our numbers and such. Phone works well. We purchased 100 down package with phone for 629P a month. My Clearchoice (Internet program provider) works well. Each team does 4 installs a day with 10 teams working.
Didn't get TV programming so I can't comment on that but it looked mostly spanish. End results are 110 down and 10 up. So ILOX has a better upload speed as I have both in my house. Might be important if you are uploading to a server or such. Streaming music service ran all night without problems so I am happy.

This is the fourth company coming to lakeside. One I think is only in Joco at this point in time. I doubt that competition will fix ILOX. Way to arrogant.
