    Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a broadband supplier in the Swords-Milesian area

    I am a current subscriber to Sky Fibre and the service is really poor, speeds have now fallen to really slow 1-2mb download speeds, I have performed all the various trouble shooting with no joy time to look elsewhere

    Virgins new product is not available in the estate so I have been looking towards EIR. Does anyone have any experience with EIR in this area ... Speeds and service etc

    Eir sky and vodafone will all be going over the same line.
    What was the maximum speeds you got on the sky line when installed?

    Id say around the 20Mb mark, it would sometimes jump up to 40-50 but never for any prolonged period

    You've tried the obvious stuff like plugging out the router for 2 minutes etc?
    Have you got onto sky about the slow speed?

    Yeah, done all the usual stuff and also been in touch with Sky a number of times

    There technical support is very good . They completed all the testing etc, it improves for a couple of days but then goes back to the slow speeds

    you do make a very good point about it being the same line from all suppliers so I might request a new modem unit as a final test
