In a modern society like the one we currently live in, access to the Internet is essential. There is a large gap between rural and urban areas to access this service. Therefore, under this context, the present case study analyzes the access technologies that will help to reduce this gap. A comparative technical and economic analysis of the access technologies through which internet services can be provided in rural areas of the Puebloviejo Canton was presented. To determine which technology is more feasible, an interview was conducted with several technical experts from telecommunications companies within the country. The airLink tool was also used to simulate the link. Finally, the implementation costs associated with each technology were determined. After this, it is concluded that in rural areas with low density, guided media are not feasible since they involve high costs in their implementation and that it is more convenient to implement wireless networks since it implies savings in time and investment.In a modern society like the one we currently live in, access to the Internet is essential.

Entre las zonas rurales y urbanas existe una gran brecha para poder acceder a este servicio. Por lo cual, bajo este contexto, en el presente caso de estudio se analizan las tecnologías de acceso que ayudaran a contribuir con la reducción de esta brecha. Se presentó un análisis comparativo tanto técnico como económico de las tecnologías de acceso por las cuales se puede brindan servicios de internet en las zonas rurales del Cantón Puebloviejo. Para determinar que tecnología es más factible se realizó una entrevista a varios expertos técnicos de las empresas de telecomunicaciones dentro del país. También se utilizó la herramienta airLink para la simulación del enlace. Por último, se determinaron los costos de implementación que con lleva cada tecnología. Después de esto, se concluye que en las zonas rurales con poca densidad los medios guiados no son factibles ya que involucran costos elevados en su implementación y que es más conveniente implementar redes inalámbricas ya que implica un ahorro en el tiempo y en la inversión.
