    i am looking to switch providers to Vodafone and they offer "enhanced broadband"on the castlebar exchange.

    any care to give me a review of the service.

    does it load fast.

    how long does it take to load youtube videos etc.

    can you post a speedtest.net test result as well please?

    Landline or Mobile?

    Landline is sound...
    But Vodafone's mobile broadband is hit and miss.

    Been using Vodafone BB landline now for over a year, despite a rocky start in regards to speeds and disconntions they really sorted there game out and are fast and reliable.

    Speed for 8meg is consistent and pings are never over 80ms and never under 50ms to Dublin

    Usually much better than that, downloading something at the moment...

    Anyone know of a non contract broadband company in Mayo? Ive got a Vodafone dongle, which isnt that bad. Its the 5gb download limit which is killing me.

    3's mobile dongle thing as a 10GB limit pre month and it's €19.99? i find the difference in speeds and reliability amazing after nearly 2 years using vodafone. plus i'm out in the sticks here and it's easily ten times better than vodafone was in the middle of castlebar!!
