DSL is expensive everywhere in .ch , switch to cable if its available in your area:

Not sure about Geneve, but in Vaud and Neuchatel it's available.

It still seems to cost a lot, e.g. Vivo Casa package which has 8Mbit download speed is 74CHF, I have the same connection but with a VDSL-model. The interesting part is that my connection really is 27Mbit so that the IPTV gets enough bandwith, then Swisscom adds this "artifical" speed reducer so that the Internet traffic only reaches a maximum of 8Mbit. :-(
