Eircom Broadband Packages in 2010

But thats my point, 20Mbit doesn't open pages quicker than what You got. Faster speeds would make zero difference to You if You're not doing anything to need them. Like me, I don't need faster speeds, I run all my downloads at night, start them when I goto bed, they're done in the morn. I'd prefer to see them finish enabling the rest exchanges, lower the price of line rental and offer packages with higher upload

internet went down again yesterday (new years eve - from about 5pm onwards). Again dsl up but internet down. Phoned utvcustomer service and got an automated message listing the days that customer service would not be available over the christmas and new years holidays. Funny thing is that new years eve was not mentioned in the message even though utv customer service was clearly not available (no options - just the message). I repeat my first...

On the former N8 in Co. Tipp somewhere. Definitely a fibre installation, as I saw various pieces of equipment going alongside it and the cable looked a bit smaller. There was even a "Danger: Fibre Optic cables being installed" sign attached to a pole where there was a road junction. South of Horse and Jockey IIRC. I'm 100% certain that overhead fibre is being used by eircom and if I do go down there anytime soon,...

Just wondering how accurate it is.
In my area new taller stronger poles have gone up and the cables have been changed to lighter ones.
The man at the post office has said the poles are in preparation for broadband but he doesn't know when.
The http://www.broadbandatoz.ie/ site lists my area as having no plans for 2009.
Can I hope that they may be wrong?
At least can I hope that the ...

The NBS is simply 3's Voice Network Rollout which would be happening anyway..
So any masts they need, and they need lots they are going to play the NBS card with planners?
There is NO NBS Network. Only 3's 3G Mobile Phone Licence.

More than 1km from exchange there is very little difference between VDSLxx and ADSLxx etc
See graphs http://www.techtir.ie/forums/showthread.php?t=2307
Average length in Ireland is about 3km. Amazingly only about 15% of lines are too long, though quality is a separate issue. There is also "Reach" plant that can go at the 2km or 3km (or even at 5km fed by bonded pairs) to give 3Mbps to many ...

Eircom are a rubbish company with rubbish broadband and are years if not decades behind other European countries.
I wouldnt hold my breath on getting better speed from them upgrading your exchange because even if they do the wiring to your house is still crap so more than likely wont make a difference

These will be FTTC in the main and not FTTH. Northern Ireland will get its 1500 New Fibre Nodes by May 2011.
Meanwhile not a single VDSL cabinet, as promised by Pierre Danon in 2006 , is yet live in the 5 main cities here.
That was because eircom get greedy, expanded the initial list to maybe 12 towns and cities including Tullamore ( Cowen) and Dundalk ( Ahern) and chanced their arm at...

Interesting article here on the FTTH landscape as it was in early 2008 in Holland
http://www.stratix.com/documents/FTT...final_2008. pdf
In certain cases 95% of housholds changed to FTTH as soon as it became available.
Unsurprisingly with the frenzied competition on copper cable and fibre in the Netherlands mobile BB is unimportant.
