    I am about to sign up to the Broadworks Broadband package.

    Is anybody using Blueface on this service?

    Does it work ok? - line quality etc.

    Thanks.

    I have Broadworks and after this experience I must say never more.
    I have only broadband without cable TV.
    It should be 2 Mb for 30 eur/month, 50 eur for instalation, unlimited, looks nice but:
    -average speed if all is ok was never more that 120-130 kB/sec ( max 10 days in a month)
    - ping was never lower that 60, if all is ok
    -from time to time, e.g. 3 days in a row is speed 0-5 kB/sec, ping 2500-3000, that is for 10-15 days in a month
    -in some days speed is between 0 and 100 kB/sec
    -generally connection speed is very unreliable
    -broadworks company doesn't have any contact email address
    -broadworks doesn't have smtp server
    -broadworks doesn't have any support or information on their home page (broadworks.ie or broadworks.tv)
    -you can only call hot-line, and they will tell you somebody will call you ( they will, but in 1 month)

    Broadworks smtp server is smtp.irishbroadband.ie
    Use this and you will be able to send email from your eircom.net accounts :)
    Hope this helps.
