I wish I still had a landline, I have difficulties with cell phones because of a disability.

When 'they' rolled out the so-called high-speed broadband network 'they' used the existing cable TV infrastructure that is strung up on the power poles, see ==>> Hybrid fibre-coax.

Because I didn't have (nor want) cable TV, and because my twisted pair line wasn't the 'primary' line, 'they' wanted $400 to lay 20 metres of coax to replace it. And 'they' wanted to replace my diminutive multi-function ADSL network appliance with two ugly boxes, one of which had an RJ12 phone socket.

So, I switched to mobile broadband, at least I can take it with me if I relocate.
