    Sorry I'm new to this post - where's the best/quickest place to find out if we have it in our area?

    Best to ring and order it. That way you will know for definite... eventually.
    Their website is not very accurate.

    Mine was installed this morning. Will post speed test later.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,561 ✭✭✭quad_red


    Any chance people could mention where they are when they post an update?

    Even one word at the end of the post. It gets confusing otherwise!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,922 ✭✭✭dubmick

    really ??

    where are you ? Its the complete opposite for me since i got on to the guys in the eircom forum they have been onto me numerous times 2 emails and 2 texts confirming appt aswell.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,222 ✭✭✭✭Will I Amnt


    Expected a bit better than this but i suppose I`m happy enough with it.
    Especially with my ping more than halved :)

    2841971501.png

    Edit: It's a bit all over the place. I've got as low as 19 down and as high as 54 down on speedtest.net.
    I'm getting a constant 19-20 on their iPhone app.

    Eircom's own site is giving me 24-25
    UPC's is giving me 40-42

    Who do I believe??? :confused:

    Use speedtest.net on a hard wired connection for a true result.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,222 ✭✭✭✭Will I Amnt


    2842141052.png

    That`s wired. Tried it a few times and that`s about average but the ping is ranging from 40 to 120ms :(

    There's more than one tech doing the installs though, the Eircom (kn networks) chap that was with me was Drogheda bound and back to Stamullen then from there so they seem to be all over the shop while this is getting done...

    I'd like to know this also - I was told by Magnet my line was only 50 capable, yet I got just over that hardwired on the laptop, maybe its not bumped to 70 just yet?
