    Cable from NTL is very good. I'm not sure what Chorus are like but their packages are quite good. I believe they are in Thurles. http://www.chorus.ie

    I'm happy with BT (basic package is now 2Mb which is more than enough for me at least) Fairly consistent speeds so far, only thing is their phone tech support sucks but then all ISP's are like that AFAICS

    Don't bother with engineer install.. you can do it in five minutes... only thing is not to jump the gun and get impatient when u first switch your router on as it can take around five minutes to pick up the DSL signal!

    NTL do engineer installs for free. I would think Chorus is the same. If it is not on their website call them about it.
