Hi,

My TD posted the following information to me; he got it from Eircom. it seems that the constituency by constituency approach from http://www.broadbandatoz.ie is being used now by Eircom in response to queries from TDs. What follows is a quote from the letter:

On the Monksland exchange, there is no exchange (I presume they really mean DSLAM here) in Monksland at all; all subs in the Monksland area are connected into the Athlone exchange, 4KM away.

Think Tulsk has BB now.

According to data from a couple of months back the Monsland exchange should have been upgraded by now.

Your local TD played a blinder didn't he? Great to know the best your elected respresentative could do was forward you a link.

And even sadder that the only way to get info out of Eircom is to have to resort to using a TD.

BTW, Monksland exchange is not upgraded yet.
