    Anybody have sky broadband in Naas? If so, how good/fast is it really? Currently with Virgin, but just have broadband, no tv. They are quite good and fast, but expensive so thinking of switching to the latest deal from sky...

    Sky is eircom broadband with a different name on it! Well worth getting to benefit from the TV discounts!

    If you are in Naas, you should look at SIRO

    Looked that up, not available at our address even though the site says it's rolled out to Naas!

    Do you know anything more about it?

    Fibre Optic Cable straight to your house on the ESB line. The benefit being that the likes of Eir/Sky are fibre to the cabinet and then copper to your house which is where you lose speed.

    It all sounds good in theory, though the Vodafone site does not have Naas listed. Check Digiweb too, and it says it's available in Naas, though I need to confirm with my address.
