Hello everyone,
Maybe someone here has a tip for me.
Let me tell you my story.
In 2018, my partner and I bought a plot of land.
Of course, internet speed was already a topic before the purchase.
So, we asked the telecom provider and the neighbors what was possible here.
The telecom company told me over the phone that in this new development area, which is not even half built, an internet connection with up to 250 Mbit/s (250 Mbps) would be available.
I dug the trench for the telecom myself. The local utility company installed the cable into the house.
For this, the telecom charged around 800 euros.
At the beginning of October, we happily moved into our new house.
But when I tried to book the desired plan with the telecom, they could only offer me a 6 Mbit/s (6 Mbps) connection.
Of course, at the same price as a 16 Mbit/s (16 Mbps) connection.
I could add a hybrid LTE solution,
The funny thing is that I have very poor LTE reception here.
All my neighbors have good internet!
(Up to 250 Mbit/s (250 Mbps))
I often work from home and need to join video conferences.
With such a connection, that is definitely not possible.
I try to work at my home office frequently. Which my employer does not like.
This is not about home entertainment or any fancy stuff.
I just want a reasonably modern internet connection.
I call the telecom provider often.
They always say someone will get back to me.
But nothing has happened for weeks.
Now they say the cross-cabling is full.
I have contacted the national regulatory authority now.
Has anyone had similar experiences here?
Best regards

What did you apply for?
This can be more complicated with DSL and analog telephone service (they no longer offer ISDN) than with pure DSL, and it’s different again with Triple Play (“T-Entertain” or whatever they call it). I applied for the Magenta Zuhause L plan. It includes Internet & DSL (100 Mbit/s) (100 Mbps).
But Telekom can only offer me a 6 Mbit/s (6 Mbps) connection. There isn’t even a plan available for this connection.
And now you have nothing – or DSL 6000?
At least there is something white and blue at the entrance, right?

At least there seems to be some white/blue wiring at the entrance (?) Currently nothing at all.
I don’t want to pay for 16,000 and only get 6,000.
Maybe I’m just being stubborn. You really can’t get far with 6 Mbps.
I don’t understand why I only have this problem here.
The IT department at my company thinks that’s too slow for my home office work.

The street is only half developed.
When I called there today, the employee asked if I could do home office at a friend’s place. I would have had a lot to say to him—where has he been living for the last 8 months? On the moon? 😡
Is no other provider available as an alternative?

At the moment, nothing at all. That’s very little. Feel free to contact me; my username is the same on GMX (de) as here, maybe we can find a solution.

No other provider available as an alternative? I was initially stunned.
I try not to get worked up over comments like that anymore.
I have already contacted other providers.
The result is always the same.
They tell me to contact Telekom.
And I don’t even live in a rural area.
