Selling new construction after receiving funding / Wohnriester - possible?

The Gigabit connection is available from us in the first year for only 20 EUR/month - basically to try it out. (After one year, you can then change the tariff if you find that the speed is not actually needed.)

I wouldn’t see it as that drastic (and yes, I am 100% professionally dependent on good internet as well). We currently have transitional Gigabit fiber AND (still) VDSL 250. The copper line therefore only has 1/4 of the bandwidth downstream and even only 2/25 of the bandwidth upstream, plus higher latency, less stability, etc. Nevertheless, objectively speaking, it makes absolutely no difference to me at all. Besides, you can assume that the situation will continue to improve in the coming years, so it wouldn’t be a big deciding factor for me. (When I moved here seven years ago, there was barely ADSL with 2 Mbit/s downstream. :oops:)

There are technical differences. I would always prefer an FTTH connection to vectoring. You are basically alone on your cable until the distribution point. This means you are much less dependent on peak times. Because in the evenings when everyone is on Netflix, I would still like to have a stable connection. Also, I like a good ping when gaming. What my aging brain loses in reaction speed, the internet connection has to make up for. :P

Believe me, I am well aware of those, but I am talking about practice here, and maybe we are just lucky, but aside from measured values, there really is no practical difference between the two lines. That may also be because a fast connection at home is useless to me if there is still "a lot of traffic" on the network behind it. By the way, with copper you are also on your own two wires up to the distribution point (typically < 500 m cable length), but much more important are the lines/connection behind that. In fact, in Germany GPON even dominates the fiber optic sector, which means you already share the bandwidth with your neighbors in the first few meters, and behind the OLT it is already a shared area anyway. What I want to say is: it does not matter what advantages there are on paper if practically there is no difference, and I see - as I said - hardly any difference for myself. PS: I would prefer fiber optic as well, but if it is an area supplied with supervectoring, that would be enough for me for now.

Basically, I would also prefer FTTH, but also look at who has expanded FTTH. For example, if it is Deutsche Glasfaser, you can't even book an IPv4 address if you want one. If it is FTTH from Telekom, you can also switch to another provider, because Telekom's peering is a disaster for me. Just looking at the last mile is not enough for me.

Kati, it wasn’t the neighbors’ fault with us, it was more the construction company. I was fed up with the house before the relationship between the construction company and the building family came to an end. It’s getting a little better. But if I were alone, it would be gone in 6 weeks. I couldn’t form an emotional bond with it. However, my world consists of relationships :-) Many greetings Gabriele

Ypg the text was long now, but if I understand it correctly, 50dB apply during the day in residential areas and it does not say that it is only allowed at certain times or only for 2 hours a day.

So during the day, playing at 45dB to the neighbors would be allowed?
