Daniel,

Ah yes, Matav. I forgot where you reside. Any competitors?

When politicians need money, they become very resourceful.
 
So, millions took to the streets against an internet-tax but they still vote
for such an idiot like Orban?
 
Maybe the numbers are 'slightly' exagerated?
 
Other than that I'm not impressed by fiber-optic and the need for it.
 
I still enjoy my 2 copper wires connection. It serves 2 TVs, a landline, 5 or
6 mobiles, tablets and this Fido server. No delays, no malfunctions ... how
much bandwith and speed does the residential customer require?
