The following DSL and home phone packages of German providers such as Alice, Congstar and O2 Germany come with a minimum term of one to three months. The DSL packages include at least an analog landline and a DSL connection with a flat rate tariff for web access. Sometimes a flat rate tariff for landline calls to other home phones in Germany is already included as well. Since some providers rely in certain regions on a wholesale product of Deutsche Telekom in order to provide landline and broadband internet connections, they may add an additional EUR 5.00 per month to the standard monthly fee – depending on the place of residence of the subscriber. That is why in some cases the following overview shows two prices for one DSL package.

Usually, DSL subscribers in Germany who choose a contract with a short minimum term have to pay set-up fees and sometimes higher purchase prices for DSL hardware such as a router or a modem than new customers choosing a long minimum term of twelve or 24 months.

Before ordering a new DSL connection interested people should check which provider offers landline and DSL connections at their place of residence and then compare prices. Most internet providers offers tools on their websites with which users can find out in advance what kind of bandwidth they can expect of their new broadband internet connection. Usually, it takes providers about three weeks to set up the DSL connection.

Hansenet is one of the few providers with an optional a flat rate tariff for home phone calls to landlines in all European countries, Australia, Canada and the United States for additional EUR 4.90 to the monthly fee.
