    can u get dsl ? even a fixed 1 meg dsl line would crush what u got at the moment. Eircom dont charge for over usage either.

    While using newsgroups I can get downloads of around 350 KB/s with ICE.

    I download around 120GB a month so Eircoms 20 or 30 would be of no use to me. When I was with Eircom they charged me a fortune for going over the limit
