Another two weeks have passed and what can I say … the situation hasn’t changed. We still don’t have a telephone line and we still don’t have a home phone. Not even to mention a proper Internet connection. I can’t really tell you what the problem is, because noboby tells me or is able to tell me. Everytime you call these people, it’s a different person at the other end and they promise you, that everything will be fine within a couple of days … but nothing is fine! The best of them promise you to call you back within the day, but of course as soon as you hang up, they have forgotten you. Hard to say if we ever get connected here. There is still this bunch of cables coming out of the side of the house (See the picture).
Anyway, the UMTS connection I use right now isn’t really an alternative because the signal strength is a bit to weak out here, but I tried Skype last night to call Germany and it worked quite alright. Only via voice-call of course. So we are at least able to call home from time to time.
