yeah we know, it's a pity that's the only thing that would want me to move away from the greater dublin area.

what are you on there 10Mb? I was back in the UK last week, friend has a 24Mb Adsl line, pretty much lives next to the exchange..............now that was FAST!

OfflerCrocGod · 04-03-2007 5:36pm

It's the 9Mb cable BB - if NTL/Chorus once they are rebranded to UPC don't up their speeds to something like that by the end of the year I'd be surprised.

Ys its the cable down here, Its supposed to be going tyo 10Mb soon as well. They have just finished laying a second fibre around the town......Worth the move

crawler · 04-03-2007 7:29pm

Caseys have been providing that a long time now...

lifebook · 04-03-2007 9:46pm

oppps meant to say it will be going to 18Mb soon not 10

Lifebook - Please tell me that your ISP also provides in Old Parish (closer to Ardmore than Dungarvan). I'm moving down in a few months and the thoughts of little or no internet speed is bugging me.

No joy, Old Parish might have something from http://www.ardtec.com/ (they have a mast on The Pike) but Caseys don't go that far.

Hey Mossy

Ya I was the first one to move into a new estate at xmas in Dungarvan and got 1.3MB downloads on torrent but not since. Its pretty solid at 1MB though

€40 uncapped

and its only 9MB

Dungarvan. Now there' a local authority with an unhealthy attraction to roundabouts.

Sorry to go off topic. Just wondering if anyone else is getting dizzy every time they drive through Dungarvan. ;-)

I think I remember being told that some local entrepreneur lay down fibre optic cable in Dungarvan years and years ago when everyone thought it would be a mad thing to do?
