I changed to Ya.com last year. I still pay 21.75€/month to Telefonica for line rental and 40.42€/month to Ya for ADSL/free national calls. Prices inc. IVA.

Re: Internet access
On a second point, some of the free routers given away are absolute cack, I sell quite a few laptops now in spain to ex pats and the spanish and Im starting to get a few moaners like I do with the people in the Uk with the talk talk and orange routers - that there is some problems reception wise,
Ive overcome this by changing the WIFI Cards on all export laptops, but I would advise to buy your own router seperate, they are not expensive and will have better performance.
Any router that has its own ariel to screw in / unscrew to update range etc is a good start

Also some of the link in the FREE BEER, is not working like "British Embassy NIE aplication" - that link gives a "404 NOT FOUND" error.

Re: Internet access
It's not easy to understand as the one about internet (telefonica) is not in English. Don't they have an English version in their site?
