The aim of this research is to reveal what factors cause digital inequality in Lifuleo Village, Kupang Regency, NTT. This research is a type of qualitative research using interview methods and direct observation in the field. The results of this research conclude that the influence of the digital divide is due to the hilly geographical conditions in Lifuleo village, Kupang Regency, NTT, lack of information and communication infrastructure in the Lifuleo area, low internet speed which hinders access to learning materials, costs for internet access are very high.
