Fibertel was an Argentine Internet service provider. It worked as a stand-alone organization until 2003, when it was merged with Cablevisi贸n, a cable television provider. Cablevisi贸n was part of the Grupo Clar铆n, thus Fibertel became part of it. Fibertel has over a million clients, and it is the third ISP of the country.[2] In 2018, Cablevisi贸n, including Fibertel, merged with Telecom Argentina.[3]
Fibertel started working in 1997, giving service of cable modem. This gave it an edge over contemporary ISP, many of which provided Dial-up Internet access.[4] It was bought in 2003 by Cablevisi贸n, a cable television provider. Cablevisi贸n would be bought later by the Grupo Clar铆n.[2]
