TomTom · 19-07-2003 1:43am

Headcase · 23-07-2003 4:48pm

WBN do wireless around Tullamore.
Have it in work, very fast, no limits on download or upload.
most expensive part is the set-up, e.g. your big f**k off arial

TomTom · 25-07-2003 6:36pm

Eron · 28-07-2003 9:05am

Contact Yorkie (Keith Yorke) if you want radio networked connection in Tullamore but I am fully sure that his link is business only, and its quite expensive

But you'll never contact him

elexes · 28-07-2003 10:32am

ye kieth is a sound lad . im sure he dose charge a good bit for his service but he is very good at what he dose .

he is hard to contact tho id say near to impossable . hes only doin the contracts he has atm and dosnt seem to be intrested in getting anymore

TomTom · 14-08-2003 1:43pm

Ok, new hope on the horizon.
That new business park out your way ian, on the portlaois road will have three companies comming into it with the intent of rolling broadband out in tullamore. Eircom, East and Board gas are all putting offices in there. Don't know what board gas has to do with bb but how cares. Three at once means compitition.

elexes · 14-08-2003 2:56pm

ye i know looks good when i saw the line out my rd and got a lettor sayin i could get it ... somone should tell eircom tho they keep saying my line has failed

according to the engineers the exchange was done about 2 weeks ago now

Ryo Hazuki · 14-08-2003 7:40pm

Broadband in mountmellick, will it ever happen?

No, Well Maybe.

your just a few miles outside port so i think it might in the next 8 months

pablo21 · 21-08-2003 3:04pm

Has anyone any experience of WBN wrt cost, reliability etc?

Headcase · 28-08-2003 12:38pm

Used WBN in work.
Not sure about cost, never went into that.
Keith doesn't own it by the way. Guy called John Fullon.

Reliable, but can be jittery at times

elexes · 07-10-2003 2:41pm

got a phone call from a eircom rep last night bb is now available in tullamore

kaimera · 07-10-2003 2:50pm

ARGH!

my mate is in Emo [Cappakeel].

His neighbour is getting a half meg sat connection to his home for work and is setting up a wireless network for a half km.

BASTARD.

note: twas 9.45AM when the **** rang me so I dunno whether to believe him

The Brigadier · 07-10-2003 3:01pm

Anyone know if anything would ever be available around Rosemount? (Just outside Moate?)

Asked our local Eircom bod this morning and should have an answer back before the weekend.

The Brigadier · 08-10-2003 12:10pm

I take it you live around Rosemount??

Occidental · 08-10-2003 12:17pm

No, Mullingar, but work is in Athlone. I know a fair few people from the Athlone, Moate, Clara area who are after ADSL, so as I had an Eircomnet rep in front of me, I thought I'd ask.

pablo21 · 08-10-2003 2:06pm

Folks,
I have a cost effective wireless solution almost in the bag for all the areas youve mentioned so stay tuneed and I will have details very soon!

Occidental · 08-10-2003 2:42pm

You wouldn't believe how many cost effective wireless solutions we've had around here, which have failed to see the light of day.
Details are always better than promises.

pablo21 · 08-10-2003 6:58pm

I think you'll find that most if not all of them had to buy their bandwidth from eircom and as such could never be cost effective.
I will post full details here very shortly.

Occidental · 09-10-2003 8:00am

Most if not all were planning on using Satellite.

elexes · 11-10-2003 12:39pm

nice dl speeds from sats ... but crap for most other things . usualy there ( from the ones i read about ) was massif restrictions on what u can/ cant do

pablo21 · 10-12-2003 10:49pm

Headcase · 20-12-2003 1:42am
