Hi all,

Quick question, on average how long does it take to set up internet in one's home/office?  Also phone lines, that sort of thing?

Hi
That depends on the house if phone is used to be there it will take 1 or 2 days to reconnect the line but if it is new it take like a week
For home Internet you have to options omantel (  need land line ) or OOREDOO (no need for land line it depend on areas coverage )

Not to demotivate you. Just have patience while they take their own time to install.
