Waiting for the connection: frustrations with Telekom glass fiber network in Dillberg

improvement of the quality of life through fiber optic connection

The installation of fiber optic cables in rural areas is an important step to improve the quality of life of the residents. An example of this is Mr. Schmidt from the small village of Osterberg. He had decided months ago to exchange his slow and unstable cable internet for a faster fiber optic solution from a local provider.

The fiber optic cable was relocated quickly, and Mr. Schmidt's house was connected to the fiber optic network in December 2023. Since then he has benefited from a stable internet connection that enables him to work without interruptions and communicate online. The monthly fee has increased slightly, but the improved performance justifies these additional costs for him.

An important aspect when switching to fiber optic is also environmental friendliness. In contrast to conventional copper cables, glass fiber causes fewer environmental pollution and is more energy -efficient. This is particularly relevant in times of climate change and the increasing digitization of all areas of life.

efficient laying and quick commissioning

The city administration of Osterberg has efficiently coordinated the laying of the fiber optic cables, which means that the construction work could be completed quickly and without any major problems. The municipal office for communication technology pursues the goal of connecting all households to the fiber optic network by the end of 2024 to strengthen the digital infrastructure of the community.

In the case of complications or delays, the residents have a local hotline available that reacts quickly to inquiries and supports problems. The close cooperation with the local network providers guarantees smooth commissioning of the fiber optic connections and minimizes downtime for citizens.

The positive response of the residents clearly shows the importance of quick and reliable internet access in rural regions. The constant further development of the digital infrastructure contributes significantly to improve quality of life and to strengthen the economy in these areas.
