    Hey guys,

    Moved out recently and have to resort to getting broadband in a box, I know its not great but out of the lot of them which would be the best (in Swords area if anyone lives there).

    I hear ripwave is good?

    Cheers

    Currently only Mobile, Ripwave and Clearwire. They are not the same as Fixed Wireless, Cable or DSL. OECD does not include them in Broadband figures.

    test o2 mobile u got a grace period of 30 days
    10 gig dl cap , generally its the best mobile provider.

    Vodafone is expensive, 30e a month and only a 5 gig cap but i found there service excellent, they also have a 30 day grace period

    my advice
    ADVOID 3, ADVOID RIPWAVE, 10000% ADVOID Clearwise

    Tryed them all and there seriously not worth the box they came in

    02 3G is your best shot

    You really are better off trying to get Cable, DSL or fixed wireless. Those broadband in a box things are awful. They're cheap because of their awfulness.
