    Hi all, I'm trying to send some proper internet to myself (outside the city).
    It would involve getting in a UPC connection and putting up a dish outside.
    I've been looking for some time at ways to do it but I'm stuck for a house or premesis to put the equipment in the city and I'm wondering if anybody could help me out with somewhere to put it or if anyone has any other ideas? Especially anyone around Gracedieu or Carrickpherish.

    Thanks in advance.

    If it meant i could get UPC broadband, you could put it up on my house, but i'm in Ferrybank...

    Just re-read and understood the post more, i can't get UPC so that fooks that... What way are you managing it?

    Perhaps you should tell the forum where this desirable location should have line of sight to - i.e. where you live as presumably you want to install a wireless link which will require LOS.

    Free internet perhaps? ;)
    If there is LOS to around Tory Hill (north) it should work, so Carrickpherish or Gracedieu should work best since they are highest.

    I can't help but let the thread title remind me of Pat Mustard from Father Ted.

    What exactly are you proposing to do? rent a house in Waterford just to relay broadband? get a friend/relative/roman/countryman to lend you their wall and get UPC piped into their house to allow you to relay it to the countryside?

    Can you elaborate on what you are technically trying to do?
