    Anyone using this?

    At €99 it is more than likely business users. It is 12.5mb up and down and seems to involve a mast so it is some sort of wireless technology.

    I would not touch them for their hosting ability but curious about the broadband.

    Coverage makes it look like a Three Rock mast.

    Image of "dish" suggests Microwave LOS.

    Either they have a Comreg FWALA licence (I haven't looked, it's all public, so can be checked) or they are using Licence free 5.8GHz (supposed to Register with Comreg), poor, or 2.4GHz (rubbish).

    They are not going to have very many customers from a single Three Rock mast at 12.5Mbps symetrical before congested to 100kbps.

    It's hardly revolutionary nor the first, nor "in-expensive" at €99. "Affordable" is a variable length piece of string.

    Imagine ex IBB does Affordable BreezeMax symmetrical at 6Mbps.

    Digiweb does 20Mbps Business Microwave at a price to be expected for such a package.
