(Slightly OT) Bandwidth in Belize
Can anyone here point me to T1 bandwidth providers in Belize, specifically Belize City, San Pedro, and Caye Caulker?

ROTFL!! I've spent more time in Belize, esp. BC, than I wish. [Check our Four Fourth Street's "Death by Chocolote" for dessert.] Generally, you get paved roads and working telco service BEFORE you can buy T1's...... The fire truck I saw was (as Dave Barry world say, "I'm NOT making this up...") a 1908 Dennis. They kept a 2nd for parts. -- A host is a host from coast to coast.................wb8foz@nrk.com & no one will talk to a host that's close........[v].(301) 56-LINUX Unless the host (that isn't close).........................pob 1433 is busy, hung or dead....................................20915-1433
Monopoly status for BTL expired December 31, 2002. On Tue, 09 Sep 2003, Lyndon Nerenberg wrote:

And isn't BTL the legislated monopoly carrier? (Although I heard rumours that this was supposed to change at some point ...)
I suspect satellite is your only option.

Hey, they've improved! In San Pedro, the fire engine I saw was a new-ish Ford F-350 with a water tank on the back, painted fire-engine red. :) On Wed, 10 Sep 2003, David Lesher wrote:
