To get a landline and home internet connection you need to pop into an Ooredoo (formerly Qtel) office and fill in an application - there's various packages available, I signed up for the basic one at 250 QR per month but I'm finding the 1Mb/s connection a bit slow so I plan to upgrade to 10Mb/s after the summer. You can't do this over the phone, you need to go in person and show your RP or ID card. If you're lucky, you will get a visit from one of their engineers in a couple of days to hook you up.
