    Does anyone know when Digiweb will roll this out past the Dublin area? Initially, they claimed they would have very comprehensive coverage across Ireland by now.

    I've also been trying to find this out for a while with no luck.

    Yes, you are right, better ask Digiweb if they have or can recommend an aerial.

    BTW, I could not connect to Digiweb Mobile today (or yesterday) either in Tyrrelstown or in Whitestown. Mobility Manager application says "Waiting L2" (as in pic) for most of the time, and sometimes "Searching" briefly.

    Does it mean that there is a signal, but FLASH-OFDM card cannot connect for some reason?

    I've spoken to digiweb sales and he says that he garauntees 5Mbs download speed at all times if i buy it. Dont know if it will work in my area though. Might order it and give it a go. If its even no lower than 2Mbps ever im laughing. If not back it goes

    Easiest way to cut through salesperson spin is since he guarantees 5mbits download speed at all times ask him to give it to you in writing. Obviously he won't because he is in no position to guarantee you anything.

    Maybe someone confused or talking about a package on a different system anyway...

    Peak rate is up to 5Mbits/s, and typical rates are 1 to 3Mbits/s.

    Just to be re-iterate, that was a lie.

    No, he definitely wasnt confused (however he may have been lying alright), i asked him about the specific package (multi). He told me i may not get the 5.3 megs speed but he garaunteed it would never go below 5 megs.

    Im going to try it and see. If it stays above 3 at all times i'll keep it, if not its going back.
