    Hi Vv2332

    This is not a service eircom offer I'm afraid. I'm sorry you were not given a detailed response on this previously, you would have been advised that you would need to pay for a whole new package as the only alternative eircom can offer is by installing another line/socket with it's own separate socked to attach a different modem to.

    I highly recommend exploring this yourself and discussing with a local electrician.

    Cheers
