A couple of days ago, our new phone and DSL rate Call & Surf Comfort Plus has been activated by T-Home. We now have a DSL 16.000 Internet connection and first measurements have shown that we indeed reach this connection speed. :-) Among other features and add-ons of this new rate, we can now access the Internet at all German T-Mobile/T-Com Hotspots for free. I tried it successfully yesterday at McDonald's in Schwalbach (of course without "enjoying" the "excellent" fast food). The new rate contains furthermore a very low ping (like the fastpath option). A short test with Counter-Strike showed a ping of 9 ms. Hopefully, I will find some spare time later to play a round or two.
To benefit fully from the faster Internet connection, I also ordered two new power line adapters, that have been delivered today (Netgear XE104 85 MBit/s Powerline Ethernet Switch). As they are full plug & play enabled, I just needed to plug they in the power outlets and voilá, we now have a nearly 16.000 kBit/s download in (potentially) every room of our apartment. :-)
