Fixed broadband and mobile, to navigate anywhere in the price
better, at home or on the move, all in one price. This is
the new challenge of Italian operators. A battle waged
for now by Fastweb, Wind, Tiscali and Wind, with offerings that can
include phone calls, to royalties from 29 euros per month. In both
ammomonta the cost of the offer in order of time is
called DSL
Data and Vodafone is the first to have only the Internet (no
phone). The fee is about a dollar less than the
competition because it does not include calls in the canon. The DSL is 7
Megabits, then the base level. Also included is a key
Free and navigation of mobile broadband access UMTS / HSPA for 30
hours per month, up to 7.2, 21 or 28 megabits (per area).
Other offerings combine Vodafone ADSL and UMTS / HSPA also 3
thousand minutes per month from home, in the same canon.

It was Fastweb the first
to have the idea of ​​combining two broad bands, no phone, in
same offer are the characteristics of Joy, to 29.95 euros
month (free with key). Costs more than Vodafone and there are fewer
hours per month (10 against 30), but the DSL is much faster: up to 20
Megabit. Tiscali
and Wind
compete with offerings that include unlimited calls to
fixed with or without a fee. If there is shooting, the
fee is $ 10 per month higher (39.95 against 29.95 euro
months).

One difference between these two operators is that Tiscali does gives the
but the key features at a discounted price (19 euros per month). Plus
However, combining a VoIP phone service (Wiphone). Wind and
Tiscali finally, unlike Fastweb and Vodafone does not include
mobile broadband traffic in the canon, but give the user
option of navigating to consumption (50 cents per hour) or a flat (9
Euro for additional 50 hours per month).

Note that all these offers exclusive phone line
Telecom and do not pay the relevant fee. They are therefore
interesting for those who want to reduce fixed costs but not domestic
want to give up to broadband DSL, which is clearly
better than Mobile. And for those who prefer the latter
Only when sailing away from home. Are offered new mirror
Italian Internet users' needs, intercepted by
strategies of actors: stay connected to the internet as long as
can, in many situations, the best speed available.
