Chivato cell phone


Mike, i have a Moviestar "mexican phone" and it works great and reasonable too. My ATT works also but reception can be a problem occasionally and it is more expensive to use. have a great day!

We use our AT&T phone we are down at PC. We get Moviestar on one side of the house and Telcel on the other!

Hi Mike, Bombero is right, as usual. As for internet when you get here I'll get some numbers off your computer and you'll be good to go. One of Gene's neighbors is using my system now. If you get a chance buy an Airlink 101 USB antenna. I know Fry's has them and sometimes on sale. Otherwise around $45. The hotel also has wifi
