    Internet Speed Throttled?

    I have the Fibertel Corporativo plan, 10Mb down, 1.5Mb up. It usually tests around 7.5 to 9Mb during the day. The last 3 nights, the speed has slowed to 0.25Mb up and down at night. I know there must be a lot more neighbors online at this time, but this is ridiculous slow. Anyone else have this...

    1 day wine tasting in Mendoza.

    We did the Ampora wine tour last Oct. I'm usually not a fan of tours but thought it was very good and definitely recommend it. The group was 8 people and we tasted a good range of wines at 4 wineries plus a great lunch. We had a rental car and drove around other days, definitely not as smooth...

    Problems with re entry?

    Just an FYI on re-entry from Uruguay today via Colonia Express boat. When coming back after a day in Colonia, the Arg Migracciones officer said I have 2 multas in my passport from previous overstays and he could not let me back in if I have a third. He then stamped another 90 day tourist visa...

    Brazilian Visa. US citizen

    I got a visa for Brazil in August and was surprised I had to leave my passport with them for 4 or 5 days (over a weekend) for them to insert the visa on the page. Make sure you go sooner than later. I also had copies of bank accounts from US as requested. They glanced at them quickly.

    Using a Cell Phone From Home

    I think you are right about Verizon on CMDA and not functioning here. Ive had best luck with ATT phones here as some T mobile dont have the frequencies used for 3G data, I think you need 850 or 900 and 1900 for Argentina. I read on infosyncworld that some new phones may come with radios for both...

    Poker Night?

    I'm in for Wed, the 10th. I didn't clean up last time, unless that means rebuying in the first 15 minutes. Dennis (Dinny?) hustled us good and won! Think I left a deck of cards there Ben.

    Poker Night?

    I'm in. Just sent Magis a PM. Glad there was such interest! I like the idea of 1 chance to buy back in but think it should be for the full chip amount. It seems better than if you come back with a half stack while others have amassed a mountain. thoughts?

    Help! Cellphone!

    I've had luck with my old carrier in the US, At&t, unlocking for me for free. Before I came, I just explained that I'd be living out of the country more than half the time and they gave me the unlock code. If you don't have an account anymore, maybe a friend with the same carrier can ask for you?
