    I can't get UPC's services in my area of Dublin, something about the signal being blocked by the hill on the far side of in respect to the transmitter they have in the naul? I thought it was all done by fibre optic cable? It says that i can get one of services on their website though, how come I can't get the other two? Does the signal being blocked by a hill pretty much screw my area forever unless another one is built?

    Signal blocked by hill = MMDS = TV only.

    Fibre feeds cabinets full of stuff, which connects to coax running past houses and then you can have TV, phone & Broadband.


    For the Broadband you need the coax cable. Not the MMDS.
