In order of how good they are:

1) UPC Cable Broadband (widely available in urban areas)
2) Eircom/Magnet Fibre to Home (very little availability at the moment)
3) Any DSL provider (all much of a muchness, most important thing to check is the usage cap if you're a big Netflix etc user)
4) Digiweb Metro, Nova Networks etc etc (top tier FWA providers)
5) Other FWAs (with slower speeds)
6) 3G & WiMax services.
