    The fastest in Ireland and the fastest you can get at your location are 2 very different things.

    UPC now offer 100meg, but I can't get it :(

    Your best bet is to go on the Com Reg website

    No its not, You'll find most of those are not available to you and it doesn't include any fixed wireless providers of which there's at least one in each county.

    3, O2 and Meteor don't really have a broadband product, midband only

    This +1.
    Don't expect to get a true broadband connection from one of these misrepresented products.
    If possible, try and stick to something fixed. If Eircom or any of the resellers in your area can't give you decent DSL broadband, and theres no UPC availability, then I reckon your best bet would be fixed wireless (if you have the money for it) as opposed to mobile midband dongles.
