    I know! Tho you can get Canal+... so will be down at my mates house watching Stade Toulousain vs Clermont :D

    THe BB costs here are a lot less.. they just finished laying fibre around most of the city...

    And there are no download caps here either!
    Canal+ via BB? tell me more!

    We'll have fibre everywhere in Dublin also! I believe it's coming in around 2082! :p

    O2 Mobile Broadband..7.2MBPS

    Can someone tell me if this is a good result or what exactly does this result mean?

    My Upload speed seems quite high compared to other results..My download speed about normal or lowishl!
    Would that be a fair assessment...

    you`ll never get full speed on mobile but imo your score is very good for mobile broadband ! especially the upload

    And here's at home (3Mb UPC Line):

    287900324.png

    Not bad considering it's 17:40!

    And that's before the upgrade to 6Mb. I'l fill in that online form and post once the line has been upgraded.
    Got upgraded to 6Mb! Tool less than 24 hours! Hurray!

    Seems to fluctuate quite alot, Thats Eircom for ya, 2 MB and I know it's 2Mb because the 1 mb was actually really only .75 mb and the 2 mb is really 1.5 Mb. It really is twice as good though.

    Westnet, 1mb down, 512 up, not bad for the middle of nowhere. Generally hovers above 1mb.

    Thats actually a pretty amazing ping, usually the speedtest results are 40+ for dsl at best and having that on wireless is pretty exceptional.
