1&1 is our current favorite and all-round recommendation with their reasonable prices and stable network performance. Currently the broadest bandwidth you can get from 1&1 is 50Mbit/s.The HomeServer (included in HomeNet s) is one of the best WLAN Routers in the market. You even get a 1000GB online storage for free, if you choose one of the HomeNet s. With it you can access and share any kind of file (e.g. videos and photos) from anywhere and with anyone (that's cheaper than buying your own domain for sharing files online!). Additionally their HomeNet s offer an entertainment , which gives you access to their huge online video library and internet radio.

Congstar is currently the only provider offfering contracts without a minimum contract period. Our recommendation for people who need this flexibility (people with working holiday visas or people who are always on the move).

The next best deal is from Alice. They offer contracts starting from a minimum of 1 month.

Currently 1&1 offers the cheapest DSL internet service on the market: 2Mbit/s for only 14.99€ per month. (2Mbit/s is usually sufficient for light and medium internet users, for example, if you use the internet for general surfing and email use and only occasionally download music/video clips)

Versatel is also a good deal. It's a bit more expensive than 1&1, but worth the few extra Euros, if you want a package which is tailored to your specific needs. They allow you to mix and match their services for a "customized“, cost-effective package.

Currently Unitymedia offers the fastest internet service available (120Mbit/s).If you are looking for smooth surfing at ultra-fast-speed, then look no further.

Right behind Unitymedia is Kabel BW with 100Mbit/s.
