    What does HD have to do with broadband ? For downloading sure i see the connection, but for viewing ? :confused:

    I'm just trying to find out if the service is any good in Kilbarrack, i'll be leaving eircom and sky.

    My broadband with eircom is terribly slow and I was thinking of getting the Fibre Ultimate package with 15mb broadband and HD.

    If you can get upc , you should get it.It's downfall is only the contention which % not many can really say.


    I still don't see the hd connection tbh.If your tv package has hd i doubt your broadband connection has fook all to do with it, unless downloading hd of course....

    From what i gather, HD comes from a source and has nothing to do with broadband.If npcs version of HD is anything like their tv then yes i would be worried.Their tv package is pretty poor from my account of them and probably most peoples.If it rains you lose your tv.Cant be sure they have invested in anything to keep HD tv up when analogue goes down tbh.

    Kilbarrack was a completely rebuilt around 3 years ago so you should have an excellent network. The picture quality is great on the HD box. Currenly it only has a limited number of HD channels but this looks set to expand over 2010. Have a look cable tv forum for more info.
