Hi, we have a house in Piedmonte. We are also in a very rural area. The nearest phone line was about 1km away. We made inquiries and got a quote of around 6000 Euros for a land line. I don't know if Elsynet is available in Sardinia but it's not too bad. It's not the fastest broadband you can't stream films for instance. But normal e-mail and search engines are quick enough and you can get a faster/bigger capacity commercial user package. It costs 20 Euros a month and you get a landline phone number. The calls are also reasonable. I can't remember how much but I am sure the cost will be on their site (www.elsynet.it). Installation cost was 300 Euros. You have a small dish type antenna put on the house. It's about 300mm square, and obviously a cable to the phone and internet point. This needs to be near a power point to power up the system. The only problem we have had is the antenna failed after about 1 year but they came and replaced it free of charge.
