why does it take so long to get wifi in germany?

ive been all over the world and NOWHERE does it take a whole month to get wifi. in america it takes one hour. you call the provider and ask for wifi and you'll have it installed and activated within an hour. in singapore it also takes about an hour. in india it takes about 5 hours. why is germany so slow?

For such questions you have to ask the government!

What kind of internet or WiFi do you mean? WIfi to go is available everywhere and is available within 30 minutes. A real landline takes longer, of course.

im talking about home wifi. why cant i just call a provider and they send a technician out to install and activate the wifi? it doesnt make sense to have to wait a whole month. i'd be fine with a few days or even a week, but a month is unacceptable since everywhere else in the world it doesnt take more than a few hours

Some things are just the way they are. In other countries, telecommunications may be better than the healthcare system. Here, telecoms is lousy, but the healthcare system is acceptable. You can't have everything!   😉

Home Wifi? Wifi is nothing to do with your provider. No technician will install your Wifi. What you probably mean is broadband. And yes, that takes a few weeks to activate because of the way telecommunications network is set up here and who is responsible for what.

Everywhere else in the world? Germany may not be the fastest and your home country may be much faster, but that is no reason to overexaggerate!

Just a few examples: UK around 2 weeks, France 1 - 3 weeks, Australia 1 - 4 weeks.

Hey @twilightsparkle,

welcome to the o2 community. 🤗

Too bad you're not happy at the moment. Unfortunately, it doesn't always work immediately. Is there anything we can help you with?

Kind regards

Don‘t worry. It would take longer than a month.

Live long and prosper 🖖

Hello @twilightsparkle, did you already place an order for a landline connection with us?

Or did you decide against it due to the longer waiting time?

Kind regards 💙

Steffen
