Moving to Sweden out of pure boredom now, and I've got a few questions:

-My house doesn't have a fiber connection, do you know if its possible to pay Telia or whatever company to get your house connected? I'd like some super fast internet connection, because now it looks like I'm gonna have to order from tre.se, since the internet central thing seems full.

-Have anyone tried internet from tre.se ? Is the response time shit and is it impossible to play starcraft with it?
I have my doubts about everything that doesn't run in a wire.

Well I'm thinking of buying a cheap car (cars are over twice as expensive in Norway), and due to how strong the Norwegian currency is, I get 20% more for my money.

Telia is the most expensive, but from my experience, the most reliable. I wouldnt recommend 3 tbh, but that is just me.

You could probably get DSL 24mbps from Telia, Bredbandsbolaget or Tele2. 24mbps will get you really far if your area can get max connectivity and its probably as fast as it gets without having fiber build in in your house.

mobile internet is never that way to go, neither for speed, nor for your wallet. Its still good because of the fact that its mobile, but it isnt very viable for downloading or gaming. Ive also heared that there are quite weird port blocks on mobile internet so you cant do much with it but surf.

Well the thing is, when I checked my address on glocalnet.se, it said

"Det finns inte någon ledig kapacitet på din telestation och vi kan därför inte leverera bredband via telejacket hem till dig just nu. "

And if its anything like Norway, Telia owns the lines and stations, so if one company cant deliver, none can.
I tried searching on tele2.se and so on, but im just getting technical errors :S

+ Show Spoiler +

Det går inte att leverera fast bredband till din adress.
Däremot har vi ett smart alternativ.

Med mobilt bredband surfar du hur mycket du vill, var du än är. Till en låg, fast kostnad varje månad. Dessutom får du tillgång till Telenors 3G-nät som ger täckning åt hela 98% av Sveriges befolkning.

Just nu:
199 kr/mån
USB-modem: 0 kr (värde 995kr)
Startavgift: 250 kr
Fraktavgift: 96 kr

Uppsägningstid: 3 månader
Bindningstid: 18 månader

got this on BBB by just entering basic info using "storgatan 1 BV" as reference. If a city in the middle of the street cant get BBB, you wont be able to

It could be so with telia owning the lines yes, and the problem is that their site is anoying for checking connectivity since you wont be able to get any kind of result without having a telephone sub first. Youre still likelly to be able to get DSL from telia if you live somewhere in the centrum of the community. Its most unlikelly that an entire city is isolated from it here in swe, but still, you wont be able to see it until you get a land line telephone first (which sux, it was the same for me where i live. I ended up with telia 24 with about 12mb connectivity though so ill live)

Yeah I know, I really didn't want to have to pay for a useless telephone line, since all I use is the mobile phone, and Telias site as you said, is horrible, but if I can get the same connection, I'd be really happy.

Thanks for the help :D I'll try calling them tomorrow and ask.
