If he doesn't have a landline but have phone wall plugs, he can ask for an ISP to build him his line. It might get him 2-3 months to get the internet. After that, he'll be having the maximum speed available in his area (this can go from dial-up to 100 Mbps) and, most of the time, this costs 29,99รข‚¬/month for an unlimited usage. With that, he has the modem that is free to rent and he can call any landline in many destinations for free. Depending on his location, he can have ADSL TV.
