Movistar

The Movistar network is in the digitalization process. These speeds are offered in Lima; in other departments the speeds may vary.

Due to the ADSL technology limitations, some speeds can't be contracted in some locations, because the customer premises can be too far from the telephone exchange's provider (DSLAM).

The services from 15 Mbit/s and down can include cable TV at customer request; speeds from 20 Mbit/s can be contracted only with cable TV included.

Starman no longer utilises the PowerBoost technology with its new service plans.

STV applies region-based pricing and the price/speed ratio is largely dependent on the different service plans. The prices specified in the table below are only for the Saturn service plans.
