In the more civilized, business and tourist areas you will find Digital connections (Cable-DSL), in some places they are very good, in others not.
Outside those areas, you come in a zone where you have the options between wired-dialup and G3-cellphone connections, thats a lot slower but you have a connection

And if there is none of the above, only satellite internet can help you out

some info here, but there are others as well

Most parts of ex. Puerto Plata have DSL, but not all.
For instance high up in the newer Torre Alta and Bella Vista, in the new areas beyond Marapica where houses and apartments are built and have been for some years, does not have DSL yet.
Montellano have DSL.

As for what areas in Sosua & Cabarete that have or not, someone else living there will know best.
