    I would think DSL/ADSL should be available there, it’s the same infrastructure and doesn’t hog the phone line while using internet, so you can call and browse at the same time.

      For one of them, yes, but it costs more than they want to pay.

      For the other…sort of yes, but it goes out 50%-70% of the day for some dumb reason I’ve yet to figure out. The company has no plans to fix/improve it…and they’re the same company offering the dialup backup.
