Yeah… good luck getting spare parts if your laptop goes down. Also, the power goes off at 10pm every day, you have to generate your own for the night.
It also seems like most people there grow their own food. That takes time when does for self-sufficiency.
And it looks like there is no property currently for sale along with limited rental options. You basically have to build your own house (with only supplies coming it every 3 months)
Solving the internet problem is only the tip of the iceberg for remote working there, there are easier locales to be a remote worker in with similar living costs but easier logistics.
Well of course you wouldn’t pick such a remote locale for no reason. But with remote work, low latency satellite broadband, solar+battery+generator, now you can. It wasn’t a real option before unless you had a specific job at that site or were independently wealthy.
