    We haven't contacted them yet, but for a service that is presumably underused (in Carlow) they really aren't starting out on the "right foot"

    "Reasonable" shouldn't be used in the same sentance as IBB.

    Try using An Post, you will almost certainly get a faster response.

    That's not bad compared to what I've been getting for the last month. Has your modem being upgraded?
