Up to 10 working days, usually 5 or less though.

Sometimes the equipment arrives before the exchange work is done.:)
The small rural exchanges can take longer than the larger urban ones.

the crowd i work for do a lot of broadband installs for eircom, seemingly they're legally bound to wait 10 working days before activation (they have an unfair advantage over other providers as they own all the lines)

let's know how you get on.
