Internet Connection

Hi

I know this has been coverred before but things move on.  Can anyone recommend the cheapest and most reliable way to get an internet connection of at least 5mb download on DV at the moment.

thanks

Movistar?  Unless there is a problem (run out of lines or something) I think Movistar is the best provider.

John, the cost of adsl (10mb) with unlimited free national calls (to fixed lines) is just over €21 per month.  That's the starting cost - there are, of course, other options.   See this link.

Yes, we have had the Movistar adsl and landline at the apartment for nearly five years with no problem at all.  Any other supplier (cabled) would, I believe, be using Telefonica/Movistar's infrastructure in any event.  Their service has been great and we've never had a problem dealing with them.  We also use them at our house.

Yes - if you call them, you just say "english" or "ingles" at the first pause and you are put through to an english speaking operator.  Now, if I call from home, it seems to automatically go through to the english service - must be a 'smart' system!

To have tv over broadband you would require an unlimited download service I suppose , is that in the €21 per month? Does it also include the line rental ? Lots of questions I know.  Update , just seen the cost if line is € 38 per month

It is an unlimited download plan - it doesn't include line rental, which is about €17 extra, so the total monthly charge would be about €38.  

Just noticed your edit!
