I'm using NTL, Oceanfree, Eircom and IOL. None are reliable so I use the others as back-up. We need more choice here, but Eircom are running the monopoly.

Hey, could you give us some more information on this satellite system? I'm in kilkenny too. How much does it cost, where can you get it, what do you need, etcetera. Thanks.

there was a subject all about the sat's for the net usage
they worked out as a fair bit though, like a few hundred and you could only DL not UL

Does anyone know of IBM offering internet home packages, I did try to phone them but got tired of being put on hold and then been given a number +31 something, I assume that this is in Europe (to lazy to check up on).
Tried NTL but they only supply housing Estates as it cost them over £2.5K to divert in to houses on their own..

Any Ideas ?

+31 = holland
