    I have them meself for the last few years. I'd recommend them,just make sure you have line rental with them aswell otherwise eircom will play silly buggers.

    Do a search for them on this forum for more info on them.

    Yeh, haven't had any problems.

    I've been with them for a few years they're pretty good. Also, as a bonus - you can use a Northern Irish UTV proxy to watch BBC iplayer

    I wasn't fully aware of this added bonus, am looking to get UTV with the unlimited option when I move in two weeks and would love to be able to use BBCi :)

    dRNk SAnTA, whats the proxy address to use for this just so I can have it for future ref

    [EDIT]

    I have them too with no issues, for Torrents though you should pay the extra €5 for the no download cap, still makes them cheaper.

    DRNK Santa how do you do that with the IP thingymabob to watch BBC?

    thanks in advance....
