Its you?
You are from Argentina but living in Spain, right?

Yes and yes.
I'm living in Spain since 1976, last 15 years without noisy neighbors and traffic jams

That is important for a pro musician like you, and even for a non pro musician too

@DoubleDutch
Your place is one of the bests, but would be perfect if the house was in the other side of the terrain to not be so near of the road.

Don't think that! There is ONE problem with retired folks, they got all day to go around and fix the garden. So you, having a job, feels "bounded" to do it too hehe

Psychophanta: I agree with it being too near the road.

People use the road like a race track - it has a 30mph limit, but last year a car hit the house at 90mph. The car was written off, but the house wasnt scratched - 1.5 ft wide walls!

The council tax is also far too high - £2500 last year. But the worst thing is that we can only get 1Mbit broadband!

I personally would like to live in France or Spain - those all look the best so far.

Heck. Denmark was far behind nearly everyone when it came to prices and speed. But now i got a 5mbit fiber (full-duplex, 5/5 mbit) for a reasonable price

Of course you can go to a faster speed but 5mbit is quite useable.

hehe!, i suspected something like that!, and may be it will not be the last time which happens it.

Yes, that is the bad part of living in some peaceful places relatively far of city.

Trust me, the only only only good thing of spain respect to norther countries is the weather, and it is only nice in the 1/3 south of Spain.
And apart of this, there is not very important the country, but just the place, and yours seems not bad, i like it.

mmmhhh, more than one year ago i have heard to talk about ADSL2+ which reaches 20mbit/s, aren't there ADSL2+ ?

The ADSL2+ 20mbit has a silly upload of 1 mbit. I got 5 times the upload speed, and besides a fiber has nearly 0 noise . With the fiber i can go to 100mbit which is their limit currently, but 5 and 10 mbit are in the low price-end. I think we pay around 110$ a month for the 5/5mbit.

But 1mbit upload is totally USELESS.

You do realize, that it is recommended to have i think its at LEAST 1/4th (or is it 40%) of the download speed in upload to get a good "rate", and that a 20mb adsl probably would have so much noise, that it looses SEVERAL megabits?

At my current supplier they offer up to 40/40 mbits fiber at the standard solution, more would of course be a special line at a higher price. 40/40 mbit fiber, 244$/month. Thats like nothing
