The implementation of this wireless network, currently benefits more than 20 households whose population is engaged in agriculture, being outside the benefit and technological development, in many cases due to the high cost of investment in infrastructure, low population density and little economic interest generated by its location, in a rural area of Ecuador. Allowing them access to the Internet and increasingly shortening the existing digital divide in our country, showing reliable results with quantitative values in terms of existing connectivity, which allow to justify a significant growth, which supports universal access, which constitutes a citizen’s right. The project started with 25 Mbps and currently works with 50 Mbps, with the projection of continuing to grow, demonstrating the success of this work.
