Which networks you ride in Dominican Republic.
In Dominican Republic your eSIM connects on Claro, Altice and Viva. These are the same physical networks a local would use — not a roaming overlay. Your phone hands off to whichever has the strongest signal where you stand, so you don't choose a carrier and you don't get stuck on a weak one.
Expected performance is 30 – 95 Mbps urban · 58 ms RTT in covered urban areas — the same band the local carrier serves its own subscribers. That is comfortable headroom for video calls, large uploads, and tethering a laptop, not a throttled tourist tier.
The reason this beats roaming is simple math. Default home-carrier roaming in Dominican Republic runs about $20 – 40/GB, billed after your trip with no ceiling. A travel.to plan is a single charge for the data you choose, decided before you travel. Over a normal trip that is an order-of-magnitude difference, and there is no bill waiting when you get home.
Coverage detail: Three carriers per region · auto-failover below signal threshold. Failover is automatic — nothing to toggle by hand.
