    I have been using it with the original Xbox for a year.Found it to be laggy on alot of games.

    But with 360 it has improved.I never get lag.PDZ has some problems with the gaming losing connection though.Also it does have a ethernet port

    Is there any hidden costs or is it really just 18.95 per month, nothing extra when getting it first or anything?!

    if at all possible stay away from Irish "BroadBand"

    i was with them for a year before they totally went to crap :/ then i got rid after a few months of being "upgraded"

    absolute sham of a company aswell - wouldnt answer a single email from me, then when i rang to cancel they asked me why - i said "why dont you look at the last 10 emails you never answered" and hung up

    Their latency is **** and you need low latency to play games properly. Go with BT instead.

    Irish Broadband have oversubscribed and cannot keep up with demand. I have had two experiences with them (personal and business accounts) and both were dreadful. Customer service is very bad too.
