Soluciones Tecnológicas TW has managed to expand Internet access by deploying its own infrastructure and wireless links in marginalized areas of the southern state of Yucatán, where most of the communities do not have access to mobile telephony, let alone access to Internet services. As a strategic component and for the purpose of optimizing the use of our own resources and benefitting the poorer communities, hotspots were deployed in 20 indigenous communities so that the population would not need to invest in infrastructure but would still be able to access the Internet.

Since 2017, the rural locations that have benefited from this project are the police stations in Peto, Tzucacab, and Chacsinkin. The Internet service that has been provided has helped basic (preschool, primary, secondary) and upper-middle (Telebachiller) schools to have better tools and therefore access to better teaching-learning opportunities.
