So... there is a problem, that has not been solved and I thought maybe there is a slight chance that someone of you would be able to help. Although I don't believe it.

All this started about 4 years ago. That is when I was about 11 years old and when internet started to interest me. We actually don't live directly in the second biggest town of a small country Slovenia (central Europe), but 8 km out of it, on a small... um... mountain (we have a special word for it in our language, but I couldn't find it in English). We moved there 8 years ago and at first, we couldn't even use mobile phones. But that didn't bother me. They solved that problem and 5 years ago, we wanted to have internet connection. We weren't able to use ISDN and so we had internet via telephone. And that was extremely slow and of course expensive. We had that kind of internet only for 1 month, because when we got the bill, my father nearly got heart attack: The bill was 200 €. And normal pays in our country are about 800 - 900 €. So he said we won't have internet until they would offer an internet with stable month payment for it. 4 years ago they enabled a chance of ISDN. But that still wasn't enough - the internet is still slow and we still have to pay for every single minute we're online. So I can't have internet at home.

At first they said they would do this in year 2005, because they have plans about it. I asked what those "plans" are, but they said those are information, they cannot reveal. So I waited. I waited 1 year and I was 13 years old. I started to be more and more unpatient about when they will do something about it and I called Telecom company, which is a company, that enables internet connection in our country. So I started to ask more and more direct questions and so they told me I can't use ADSL at our home, because we are too far away. I called again in some days and they said that I can't use it because there is no signal at our destination. And finally, when I called one week later, they said that their terminal is already too full to take more applications. So I didn't know what is right and what is wrong and i send them a letter and wanted them to explain everything. They send me a reply; but it was not what I was expecting. They said, they would do some changes in year 2006 and wanted me to be patient. They said that 50% of Slovenia can already have internet, but that the other half just has to wait.

The year 2006 came. I became 14 years old and I couldn't stand without internet. I went to librarys, every friend of mine had an internet, even my grandma! I called at Telecom, but the answer was always the same. Wait. I called other organisations, but it seems that they are all related to Telecom, which is the only one that can change anything. After some months they said that 70% of Slovenia can have internet by now, but that we still can't have it. I was desperate. I tried everything; I send them more than 5 letters (I got the same reply every time), I send them applications, petitions, everything! I even threatened, that I would go on court or that I will stand out that problem in European Union, but they didn't seem to care about it. I was asking questions, what should I do and noone seemed to help me with something that might have worked. So, i tried to get internet with connections. My father had some connections at Telecom, but they didn't work out and I also didn't know who else to ask. They said that they would do it in year 2007. They were delaying it month by month.

I also called an organisation that has an internet without cables, but we are surrounded by trees and the line must be clear, so that wouldn't be possible either (I would have to chop half of a forest to enable this kind of thing). They are still developing this and they said they would finish it in June, but it won't help me, because of those stupid trees.

And so year 2007 came and I am 15 years old. I am in desperate need of internet and I don't want to visit my friends just to be on internet, I don't want to go to library anymore and I don't want to come to my grandma's and be just on a computer instead of talking to her. I called Telekom and they said that it is likely that they will do this in year 2008. Of course I have no intention to wait that long, but what can I do either? I am in this age, when I need internet and when everyone has it! I don't want to get it when I will be 22, because it is very likely that I won't be interested by it anymore. I want it now, but I really have no idea, what to do. After all those long years of waiting, I am desperate as hell. This is horrible and I can't stand it!

Please help me!

Best thing to try is to find a different service provider. It may be hard, but there are more out there.

Hmm. That's kinda like my comp... First off...? Screw Telecom. They're obviously doing shit. Second, there are several internet providers that offer worldwide. They are a tad expensive though.

Yes, but our country is so small that I don't think there really is a way. Maybe I could try something on satellite connection, but I heard that this is very expensive <_<

Hmmm...I know there's a way to get Satillite Internet somehow, though I'm not exactly tech savvy, so I have no clue what to do.
