It was in November of last year when it began to be available to all customers, but not free. Although now this has changed, since it is included in some rates.
In December of last year, Movistar included the Smart WiFi 6 model on its website, so that customers who wanted to could replace their equipment and order this model as a rental. To do this, you had to pay a fee of 50 euros if it was requested with the self-installation option or 100 euros if the help of a technician was needed.
