    looking for some advice.i currently have irish broadband, wireless ripwave, 512K, 19euro a month option. but lately the speed is really slow, almost locking up nightly. i'm going to change and was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on a better option. i'm thinking about spending 30ish a month and dont have a phone line, so wireless seems to be the easiest option. i live in clonsilla, dublin 15. any opinions?

    Then maybe digiweb may be the way to go. Getting alot of good reviews here anyway.

    what a joke for business ethic they have and very bad customer service. 3 mix up's on their part to get a modem delivered. i took time off work to get modem delivered,and not delivered on 3 different occasions after organising dates and times with their customer service agents.customer service is non-existant.telling me modem is "on the way" and "courier will be there in <1hr", then not showing up. i ring to enquire about its where abouts, then same old story,"will be there this afternoon", nothing arrives.
