    Hi,

    Am new to boards.ie so apologies if I make any mistakes here on my first posting.

    I am currently residing outside of the Kinnegad area/ County Westmeath. I have not been able to get Broadband from anywhere but Lastmile and have had enough of them and their non-existent service and speed, but so far, this has been my only option.

    The speed is so slow I think in part due to the contention ratio as it always seems to be snail pace speed between 7-11pm. Speed test was 30kbps up and 4.91kbps down which is actually slower than dial up and no response from their "customer service" team to date.:mad:


    Have tried the mobile dial up cards and think they are reasonable for interim access to broadband but not a long term soultion, speeds between 7-11pm quite restrictive. Speed test; 55 kbps upload, 800 kbps down.

    Any tips for alternative internet providers is greatly appreciated.:)
