Is there broadband internet and satellite TV in Ecuador?
Yes, however, good broadband is almost exclusively limited to the cities and, oddly enough, much of the coast as well as The Galapagos has good access. If you end up in an area where there is no internet access, one cell phone provider – Alegro – does offer wireless via their cell phone. Most urban areas have an option of TVCable for cable TV as well as Direct TV, which is available everywhere. While both do offer HBO, Cine and other premium channels, due to US licensing, programming runs behind the US.
