    Bulldog are UK only.

    NTL have a 6Mbit product capable of up to 10Mbit.

    Dungarvan and another place have a similar cable based product.

    For DSL it must be smart or to a lesser extent Magnet have a 24Mbit ADSL2+ product as well.

    Is half of the 8M not used for IPTV?

    Digiweb might have 10M?

    It all depends on how much you are willing to pay and where you live to be honest. Business products from most providers will streach 10 meg and above.

    1800 / month.

    I assume that doesn't include the extra internet access fee. :)

    Nope, thats just layer 2 to the data centre. Includes network access ( a big chunk of the Irish net and anything accessible via INEX) but international IP is per Mbps.

    Magnet Networks 24Mbit would be the fastest in the country but its 200 euro a month so meh if you want the fastest you will have to fork out for it

    I'm stuck with eircom. They lure you in, before depositing you at the time. It's great. You have lots of free time. You have my passport, and I am thinking, because here, the entire global supply chain is condensed. Many of my goods are made by semi-enslaved populations desperate for jobs.
