    I have just moved to Portugal staying 6 months per year.
    I'm living in Estoril close to the casino. Now I have Netcabo
    which has resrticted acsess for International traffic so it
    becomes expensive but so far very reliable.
    I have seen some Adslproviders where you can get
    unlimited acsess. Which is the best solution in Portugal
    for a trader? I'm talking about reliability and price.
    Some portugeese traders on ET?
    Obrigado
     
  2. Where are you moving from and how do you like it so far?

    I'm living in sweden but was working in Portugal
    between 1983-1999 so I know the conditions
    rather well.
    The portugeese are really nice people and more
    esaygoing then the nordic countries. And the climate
    is really good with mild winters.
     
  4. whats the broadband speed like in portugal?

    in terms of mb/s?

    According to my provider I should have 8192 kbps downstream
    and 384 kbps downstream.
     
  6. that seems awfully slow compared to standard 3mb/s cable internet is offering in the US, or am I missing something?
