Re: ADSL in Spain
Hi Toro 
Seems like you know a lot about ADSL in Spain.
Since I am planning to move to Madrid I have a few questions about broadband there.
A few questions:
which of the providers above are available in Madrid?
how long will it generally take to deliver the connection after the order?
which provider(s) has/have the best reputation?
and finally:
is broadband via cable available in Madrid?
Thank you very much for your time
Vincent. |

| let me tell u there are a lot of options in MAdrid. YOu can choose ADSL, naked DSL , Cable, and PLC (BPL in the USA). Most of them u would be under contract, if u are gonna be around 18 or 19 months I would to servidores.com free landline data it means the line is only to voice,
so 39€+tax 1200/200 it will be upgrade to 2400/400kbps ( not sure to thje upload) VOIP will be available soon for no extra money, no limits call in SPain and 0.03€ calls to Europe pr the USA. the worst part is you would be under contract for 18 months.
Jazztel 1Mb/300kbps 39€+tax+telefonica's landline (13 or 14€ extra. I'm not sure if there contract even if ur are using your own modem/router
PLC is available in 50% of MAdrid city 1Mb/1Mb fot 39€+tax no contract and they borrow u the PLC modem.
Cable Auna. if u only want internet 600/300kbps for 39€ or 1Mb/300 for 45€ i think there's not contract. Better offers with TV and phone but u would be under contract during 18 months 1€/month rent cable modem
I think the SPanish ADSL works with PPPE I'm not sore. |

Hi, excellent thread of information. I will be moving on a part time basis to Torrequebrada which is in Benalmadena on the Costa Del Sol. I will be there 4 times per year for 4 weeks each time. I am looking for a broadband solution that will be cost effective for this type of use. I was told that Spantel have an offering for 10 EUR per month with a usage charge of .03 cent per minute but with a maximum monthly charge of 42.95 EUR. This is 512/128 speed. You must subscribe to the Spantel telephone service but there is no cost for this and the calls are much cheaper than Telefonica 3.9 cent per min to Uk and US.
Do you know anything about this service.? |
