    It's like, 4 meg symmetrical in the FTH areas is it not? Sounds damn good.

    I was also wondering why there hasn't been a thread on them here. :confused:

    The only thing that annoyed me is that you cant just get the broadband package, you have to get digital tv and phone if you want to avail of the higher speeds.

    The grass is always greener on the other side. The TV is well dodgy.

    This is a very old thread. In saying that is there anything I can do to help you? We now have new and more effective TV equipment.

    I laughed so hard when I read that, if anyone I knew had 4meg now they would give out about how slow it is, its funny how things change. I myself found 8meg very slow and I upgraded to 24, 4 being "blinding" seems so odd, although its only 5 years on.

    I agree that the TV side is not as good as it could be (or maybe what I would like it to be) but the truth is that they are getting better (they need more HD channels) but broadband-wise, I doubt anyone can offer a better service in Ireland (if u r on FTH of course).
