Hi, we have just secured rental of an apartment in Shenzhen and now we need internet. There is a fibre line installed but I'm wondering if you guys have any recommendations of which provider to use and an approximation of the monthly cost?

I can only tell you that I was with China Telecom basic, at 100 rmb per month.

Was very fast and reliable, but have opted for China Telecom Business now for 200 rmb per month. It is lightning speed and the difference is notable, but there is no doubt the basic will suitable for most, it is fast. It's unlimited too. We were running 2 house cellphone's WiFi and the TV's WiFi movies on it, as well as 2 desktop computer's Internet, never any loss of speed.

China Telecom is well know to be reliable, China Unicom not so much.

I don't trust any of the independents, 13 years in China does that to you, likely to take your money and disappear a few weeks later.
