Internet for Home and Business

I am moving permanently to live in Quesada area but I will be still working for my current employer who is based in the UK. I will need to remotely access our business network via the internet so will need a really reliable internet connection with high download speed .
As well the other home requirements re TV packages , landline &mobile phone


Are there stores in Quesada who could help me source the best package as I'm not confident in doing it online in case I purchase the wrong one and end up stuck with a contract that isn't fit for purpose.

Thanks in anticipation

Certain parts of the area have fibre with 300 meg. Depends where you live.

Unfortunately Quesada is a bit of a muddle when it comes to the complete package. Lots of areas now have fibre optic with high speed internet whilst others haven't. Some areas get 3G phone signals perfectly whilst others, just a few hundred meters away, struggle to get 2G.
Each of the main shopping centres in Torrevieaj, Habaneras and Zenia Boulevard, have the providers stores who can tell you what packages they do, what signal you can get and so on (try to avoid Movistar in Habaneras as, unless the lady who worked in there has left, you'll get terrible service, the one in Zenia Boulevard is good).
Other companies do high speed internet with telephones, TV and so on and will all tell you how good they are. Until something goes wrong so you should get some recommendations from neighbours how the after service is.
But it will depend on which area you are moving to.

Whilst I don't live permanently in Spain, when I am there I sometimes do some contract work that requires me to remotely access networks back in the UK (for hours at a time). These are mostly accessed via Citrix and/or LogMeIn. We have Telfy fibre optic installed in our place in Dona Pepa and I generally get somewhere around 50mbps download speed which has been perfectly adequate for my purposes. There doesn't seem to be an upper usage limit either and so far (!) it has proved to be reliable. Other providers (e.g. Meganet) are available.

I should add that Telfy have an office in Rojales and I believe Meganet have an office near the Gama in Dona Pepa.
