/!\ Developping is starting, if you known how to make antenna or telephonic center for this mod, let me know at the mail bellow.
If you are pretty good at 3d modeling, you can see project for 3d models to see what to be done
Apparently, the author abandoned the project.

Telecommunication Mod for Cities: Skylines. Adds telecommunication as an extra service. The mod implements phone and internet access.
The idea is that telecommunication is added as an extra city service. The level 1 buildings (Phone center and phone line) will be unlocked at an early level (Worth Village). The next level (Telecommunications Tower) will be unlocked with the "Boom Town" Milestone. The 3rd level includes the data center and DSL-line enabling internet access. It will be unlocked with the "Big Town" milestone and high density residential and office zones will require internet access. The last level (Broadband tower, fiberline) will be unlocked with the Big City milestone. Access to a phone line or internet increases happiness and internet connection also provides a boost to high school and university education. All unlock milestones may be changed during development due to balance issues and are now only preliminary values.
If you are interested in contributing in the development of this mod just write a nice email to me and I might just add you as dev. Please be aware that this project is and always will be just for fun and is licensed under GPL 2.0.

The phone center serves as an access point to telephone services. A phone network must be connected to a phone center to function similar to the water network.
Buildings within a phone lines radius are provided with phone access, provided the network is connected to a phone or data center and there is enough capacity left. Its radius is most like to be greater than the radius of a water pipe.
A telecommunications tower provides phone access in a bigger radius around it, provided it is connected to a phone or data center via phone lines or another tower.
Provides access to internet. The network must be connected to it similar to the phone center.
Provides access to internet in a radius similar to a phone line around it, if connected to a data center with enough capacity.
Same as the telecommunications tower but additionally provides internet access.
Same as a DSL line but with bigger radius and it boosts happiness and high+ education levels around it.
Makes phone access free for every citizen, but costs a certain amount per connected building. Generates a decent amount of happiness.
Same as free phone access with more happiness and cost involved.
Makes internet access free or homes and boosts education levels in connected areas. Increases demand for residential areas and costs a certain amount of money per week.
