Alternative ISP to Vodafone (Was: HELP HELP HELP)

    Looking to get away from Vodafone because they are the worst isp i have ever had.

    The main problem i have now is who to choose???

    I live in dublin, vodafone could only ever give me 3mb (sold as 7 and achieving 2.5 max)

    Magnet say they can give me 12mb, Eircom 7 NGB i really dont know who to go with.

    To be honest I dont really mind what I have to pay, I just want something that works well and won't drop a few times a day.

    The higher the speed the better but honestly all I want is something that works.

    Can you guys help me decide on the ISP, then I can choose the bundle.


    lol would you believe while writing this vodafone drops again, for the 4th time tonight .....

    I'd go with Magnet if I were you, they're probably the best DSL ISP at the moment.

    Well UPC is great! I have had them for well over a year. They are great folks. Had 3MBmb for a while and it was true to it's speeds getting too just over 400kb/s!

    I'm getting about 1.4-1.7/mbs for what I have now.

    Works wonders. And never once hassaled me about torrents (sometimes some things are easier to get via torrents, as in legal things).

    If Magnet's own broadband (as opposed to the resold Eircom one) is available from your exchange then it is an excellent product.
