    Which one is for me? Clearwire, 3, 02, vodaphone? 3 seems to be the cheapest but i want a network that's fast enough, and has a decent download limit, and as few problems as possible. Any suggestions?

    3 and Clearwire a complete joke. Try the other two and see if you can get decent speeds with them. 3 and Clearwire are a last resort.

    What makes them so bad? 3 seem to have the best value. Is it slow or hard to connect? What about Irish broadband; ripwave and breeze etc...

    Yep, have to agree with brim4brim..... CLEARWIRE are the very last resort for you....Im in between bray and greystones and its my only option. You would seriously be better with dialup. Forget about sending anything over 1mb , using a messenger, skype, cam and they block torrents. And if a penguin farts in the antarctic you'll be lucky to get 2kb's....... you think i'm joking!!!

    Im using Clearwire in Wexford, ive had it about 6 weeks now and i find it perfect.
    Im constantly downloading from rapidshare on a 1mbps connection and have a constant 120+kb speed.

    Its only new down here so perhaps im counting my chickens a bit prematurely but at the moment i have no complaints.
