    Hi all,

    At present we are using a 2mb leased line in work. I want to get an accompaning fast ADSL line 7mb -> 20mb+ so as to allow regular internet browsing and downloading through that line.

    Our leased line is with Eircom. Anyone got any recommendations on who I should be checking out?

    We have about 30-35 users in the office.

    Thanks.

    - BT Ireland (BT still handle Business customers)
    - Smart (depending on your area)
    - Eircom
    - Magnet (if they do business cutsomers)

    They'd be the likely crowd I suppose off hand, basically a matter of seeing who provides what you need/want for the best price.

    SMEBusiness, has UPC changed the packages - that URL states that the maximum is 20Mb with 2 lines

    Magnet do great business broadband with no limits & no contention ratio. I've been using them for years: I even looked at changing a few times to see if there were any better deals going, and for business, there aren't IMO.
    Everyone else either caps your monthly allowance, has slower speeds, or has a contention ratio. And UPC throttles certain protocols too (torrents), so even though UPC are faster & cheaper, I don't like their policies, their customer service, or the company in general.

    Yes, UPC Business have increased their speeds without increasing their prices. We are releasing a Business website with all new content at www.upcbusiness.ie. This is exptected to go live by the end of the month.
    Send me a PM and I will forward you on the Marketing Collateral.
