  • 2048/256 kbit/s for €65 / month

  • 6144/512 kbit/s for €77 / month


Note: Neostrada uses a lot of promotions, most of them are about paying less for the first few months of service, therefore the prices may be lower than the ones listed above. Also, most of the lowest (128/64 kbit/s) tier subscribers have lately seen their service upgraded to 256/128 kbit/s at no charge.


Internet DSL TP


There is another ADSL option available, targeted mainly at business clients, called Internet DSL TP . The link availability is guaranteed plus offers static IP address(es) and a modem with Ethernet interface. Of course, it is more expensive than Neostrada (all prices including tax, as of April 2006):

  • 256/128 kbit/s for €37 / month

  • 512/128 kbit/s for €47 / month

  • 1024/256 kbit/s for €61 / month

  • 2048/256 kbit/s for €79 / month

  • 4096/512 kbit/s for €92 / month

  • 8192/640 kbit/s for €106 / month

  • 15360/800 kbit/s for €132 / month


The main drawback of this service is that, excluding times of promotional fares, the installation cost is very high: €209. However, monthly fares are now quite close to similar Neostrada speed options.


Net24


ADSL service called Net24, provided by TP's main competitor Netia , offers five speed options (as of April 2007):

  • 160/64 kbit/s for €18 / month

  • 320/64 kbit/s for €23 / month

  • 640/160 kbit/s for €35 / month

  • 1536/256 kbit/s for €45 / month

  • 4096/384 kbit/s for €61 / month


Speeds for TP customers (via BitStream Access ):

''Prices and speed for 12 month contract:''
  • 128/64 kbit/s for €18 / month

  • 256/128 kbit/s for €18 / month

  • 512/128 kbit/s for €23 / month

  • 1024/256 kbit/s for €36 / month

  • 2048/256 kbit/s €45 / month

  • 6144/256 kbit/s €61 / month


The physical speeds are slightly higher than marketed speeds to accommodate protocol overhead. The IP address is assigned dynamically on connection.

The service can be installed on ISDN lines.

Netia also offers ADSL (BiznesNet24) and SDSL (SuperNet24) subscriptions for business customers, which offer static IP address and higher speeds.
