Of course :-) But my summer cottage case is a special one: sparesly populated area with difficult terrain, mostly granite islands with very little soil for digging. At least 2, maybe 3 years ago I signed up for fiber access to my summer cottage in the Stockholm archipelago. Apparently they would get me connected within a year. Still no fiber... But only yesterday I received an email from the company stating that they were now working on the fiber poroject on these islands. Apparently they think they can connect us within 2 years or so.... At home (a suburb of Stockholm) I have 250/100 fiber since 2013. That makes it even more of a drag to be subjected to the mobile broadband data speeds. When it is good at the island (spring/autumn) one can get maybe 20/5 Mbit/s but during summer vacations when the population multiplies many times over it drops to sub-Mbit/s very often. Too much on-line video usage, I think. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
