    Noise margin is the amount by which the signal EXCEEDS the noise.

    High is good.

    Sounds like you are close to the exchange but that it's a small one with very limited backhaul ..

    Well, if it wasnt for them you wouldn't have ANY BB. They provide it because they have to, small areas like that will never be installed by private companies, it'd make a loss.

    As radio links get cheaper such exchanges may well be upgraded, but if you can just move to dublin :p

    I think there's an argument for subsidising the back haul connections on a supplier neutral basis. State owned fibre to those small exchanges and let eircom and the other operators, including wireless ones connect to it at a low price.

    Otherwise it won't improve.
