    Hi,

    I'm having difficulty locating the BT Ireland DSL settings on their website. Does anyone know them ?

    Need to configure a new router.
    I know my username and p/w but that's pretty much it.

    PPPoE or PPPoA ?

    etc etc.

    Well tonight they're using borked DNS again - couldn't connect to Digiweb hosts by Name until I changed to openDns (strangely the eircom DNS was having the same issue).

    How do you know if it's unbundled or bitstream though?

    It's the 3mbit/s package.

    Is there a list of unbundled exchanges in the cork city area?

    It's cool. Tried PPPoA and PPPoE and both worked fine.

    So, I'm sticking with PPPoA.

    I don't know if Esat is to blame for this yet. It is bloody strange - I was getting SERVFAIL for www.boards.ie and it appeared with other digiweb hosted sites as well.
