    Thats coz the south of the city has no hills and is full of flats hence the name for southsiders > flatlanders... ;)

    My brother in law has it in the city center (Lavitts Quay). It's appalling. The only time it's usable is early on a Sunday morning, other than that it's congested beyond belief.

    It's not an issue of poor signal - it worked fine for a fair while after he first got it around a year ago. It's purely contention/backhaul or whatever other networking ineptitude IBB can come up with.

    I'd avoid unless you've absolutely no other choice.
