Eircom wins for me especially now with the upgrade....still waiting though
Got ripwave 'cause it was available immediately which is what I wanted it at the time. But as I paid rental upfront for 4 months, I've stuck with it as no refund would be given if I returned the modem within that time.
Was initially considering IBB Breeze as an upgrade to ripwave. However, stability on the ripwave leaves a lot to be desired, and their customer service is, well, ehm, "poor". The negative posts here have convinced me that IBB are NOT the way to go.
Having experienced IBB "tech" support also, I think an alternative provider is a must.
Eircom / BT are probably the only options for me as NTL is not available. A land line is available, and will be, so wireless is not a necessary requirement.
Despite various moans about billing and some lack of cs etc, overall there seems to be very little negative issues with Eircom / BT actual products. I did previously use BT, and whilst cs are equally as poor as IBB, (probably went to the same monkey training school
), the product itself was stable and had very little, if any, downtime - and that was when it was 512 for the basic product! 0 -

Yes I'd have to agree, the constant reliable connection from Eircom is something I've got used to and I have to thank everyone on this board whose posts I read just in time to realise what was going on at IBB.
I had NTL at my last address and that was fabulous. cable is definitely the best if you can get it. Rumours they will now go to 10 Megs after the Eircom upgrade but I wonder...Isn't NTL Ireland owned by the same company as Chorus now?0 -
