Eircon ADSL speeds comparison chart??

cherrio

I have been all over www.adsl.ie and cannot find any comparison chart. They make very little reference any where to the speeds.

All I can find in the FAQ,

What speeds are available with eircom i-stream?
We are offering a range of four products depending on the numbers of users, the network environment and the bandwidth requirements. There are two bandwidths available.

512Kbps downstream with 128Kbps upstream*
1 Mbps downstream with 256Kbps upstream
*with eircom i-stream starter speeds may be reduced by usage during peak times, line quality and exchange distance.

Does any one know if there is a page on Eircom that gives the exact download/upload speeds of their packages?

thx.

Because of their anal session stuff I can't post the direct link, so...

• www.eircom.ie
• "Our business site" from menu on left
• "Find out more >>" from the first section on that page "Revolutionise the way you do business with eircom i-stream !" (lol)
• "eircom i-stream solutions" just under the blue paragraph about the €1.50 a day.

Of course they mention no where on the page what the single * means .. but its basically that you're only guranteed 256Kb/sec downstream but it can be up to 512Kb/sec depending on the line quality. I'm not sure what happens with upstream.

the speeds listed are what you get if non of the other 47 subscribers are using it at the same time etc....
