    Hi. I got eircom efibre bout a month ago. Havent had any issues at all. Solid 90-100mb/Mb/MB or whatever its meant to be when wired to laptop and 50-60 on wifi.

    Delighted with it. From ordered to installation about 3 weeks and all set up within an hour

    UPC is the best. You have no download limits. I've been with them for two years now an they provide a very good service. It's very fast an never a problem.

    I chose Vodafone Fibre over UPC mainly because of the upload speed.

    I am on the 100/20 profile and get around 94/18 on a speed test.

    I went from 10/1 on Sky to this!

    Couldn't be more happier.

    Highly recommend.

    They are seriously decent % speeds.

    Currently in the sticks on Aptus on 5Mb/512Kb and looking on in jealousy. That being said, uptime reliability with Aptus is pretty spectacular.

    My friends have Aptus, they're on the 6/1 profile, the only bad thing is the terrible 40GB limit.

    If you don't like the limit I'd recommend you go for RegionalBroadband 4/1 speeds but it's unlimited.

    From what I've heard it's great.
