It is also ridiculously expensive compared to home. Some typical prices as follows:

2mb 349 AED / Month
4mb 449
8mb 499
16mb 549


All have a 200 AED installation fee.

I hope this helps.
Thanks.

So we will need to look at Etisalat then and see whats their fastest speed, it looks like 30mb, i wonder if this is quick enough?, maybe streaming TV through internet is not the way to go, and just to give in to the fact that Corrie and eastenders are no longer part of my life...(have managed to get all the uk channels here in cyprus for the past 3 years due to the 4.2 meter dish on our roof) - although I think OSN show some shows?

Thanks for your help,

BTW how are you liking The Green Community?? we are hoping to get a Bungalow in GCW to move into in August have got boys into the local school and nursery so I am hoping its a good choice !
