    Hi. Looking for some advice. Setting up a home office for two workers. Need broadband and phone for both(plus fax as well). What's the best and cheapest (its a new business!) way to go about this. Satellite broadband isnt an option (no chimney to get signal) but availability of broadband shouldn't be a problem. Am based in the Arbour hill area - Dublin 7. There are currently two inactive Eircom landlines installed in the house.
    Any advice would be appreciated. Do any of the joint providers do any deals on local phone calls etc as this would be our major expense?
    Many thanks.

    Get quotes for installation from BT if you like, but personally I'd just reactivate the two landlines with Eircom, and switch the voice calls to somebody like MCI or Perlico, this can be done almost hassle free (no downtime, number change etc.).. there are voice providers by the dozen these days so call costs should be minimal... so basically you'll just pay for your broadband and eircom rental as fixed charges and your cheaper voice calls then from whoever you choose.

    thanks for that. What about Voip - someone like blueface.ie? Would this be better / cheaper?
