A couple of years ago, my friend bought... IIRC, a 40 MB wireless connection to his and his partner's new second, weekend home in the Eifel Mountains of Germany. (There was no reasonable wired option.) I forget the exact details, but again IIRC it was well under 100 € / month (40?, 60?) and unmetered. I was jealous. Maybe I'm mis-remembering, but it fell into my mental category of "Europeans now getting a lot more and better connectivity for a lot less". Contrasted with a decade or two earlier, when telecom prices over there seemed to be quite relatively high (compared to the U.S.). P.S. Pinged him to check the details.
