    A DSL/VDSL provider should be able to have the line enabled as part of their activation.

    Hi

    Digiweb Metro or Imagine WiMax offer broadband without the need of a phone line into the house. They both use fixed wireless technology where an antenna is placed on the chimney and fed down to a wifi modem using co-ax cable (Imagine also has the option of an internal radio unit/modem if you're located close to one of their base stations). Presently Digiweb offer speeds up to 30Mb where as Imagine offer up to 10Mb. Both offer phone service as part of the package. Visit http://www.digiweb.ie or http://www.imagine.ie for more details.

    Regards.
