Oh, you mean Europe is more than one country? :?
I'm using Internet mostly at work. Our inet connection is not very fast, not very reliable, sometimes not working at all... but free. :)
Guys, stop rubbing salt into the wound! :evil:
I have dialup connection speed 40-46 Kbit/s (4-5 Kbyte/s) :evil:
I'm connected to Stream Neo,unlimited connection, monthly payment is 20$, connection speed 160 Kbit/s
I use WebPlus provider. Unlimited traffic, fixed public IP address, speed 256 kbps. 38 USD/month
They had great phone cards too -- it was pretty cheap to call the US, until I realized that they weren't actually taking off any of the minutes on my card (I assume technical difficulties), so I was able to get about 3 months use out of it (when it should have been about a month or so based on what I used.) :DQuote:

0.055$/mb :( Download speed up to 250 kbytes/sec (so, if you open a page with many "prikolnye kartinki", you risk spending the last portion of traffic). The positive side is that we are 700 and 3000-users networks together with free internal traffic.
Hi, detail! I heard, where will be a unlimited tariff plans in Academ. Just for 50$...but you can`t download more then 1 gig per month :)
When I'm home I use GPRS-internet connection up to 15 KB/s. It costs from $0.12/mb. It's good enough for reading news and ICQ.Quote:

В Новосибирске безлимитных тарифов нет.
I'm in OKS-1 netwok. Probably Morgue* is going to offer such a thing, but I haven't seen it yet. In OKS we have 2 fast providers. Morgue offers his own cable line and, as an alternative, satellite connection. The latter is quick and twice cheaper, but has longer pings.
* Morgue = морг = академ.орг = academ.org :D
Well, I'm not familiar with many prices, but I know that still the main problem in Nsk is expensive magistral connection to Europe. It costs about 30$/Gb. (in the light of this price, 50$ in a month for just 1GB seems a bloody robbery!).

Free at night and you call it 'slow'? Man, I wish I had the same thing!Quote:

Обычно это квазибезлимитные, вроде, назовём это безлимитным, но если ты, падла, сольешь больше 10-20-50 (нужное подчеркнуть) гигов, то попадешь на деньги, или обрежем тебе скорость до мопедной.
Для того чтобы мне обрезали скорость, нужно скачать 20 гигов. Максимум, который я когда-либо скачивал, пришёлся на первый месяц пользования безлимитным тарифом, он состовлял тогда примерно 15 гигов. Потом количество скаченных метров постепенно уменьшалось.Quote:

У меня проблема в том, что на загрузуку одного сайта потратится много драгоценных рублей. Не то чтобы я не знаю, что нужно, скажем, отключить загрузку картинок и т.п., просто этот самый контент бывает необходим. Приходится ограничиваться первой частью месяца, а далее практически не бывать в местах, где трафик жрётся немеренно - и ненапрямую (surfing) и напрямую (downloading). :(
After reading all this I can tell you that Australia has about the same fvcked up system that Russia has. As a matter of fact i'm certain that the stupid Aussies decided to pattern their Internet system after the Russians instead of the Americans.
There are plenty of service providers but a company called Telstra here, has a monopoly on the cables that feed the phones, TV, and Internet.
