NGB in my area?

teatoast

Hi, I'm looking to change my broadband as I'm currently on a very crappy Perlico package that I signed up to a few years back. I noticed on the NGB coverage map that my area, Dunleer, Co.Louth, is due to be upgraded between July and September. Basically I want to know how accurate this is.

I know I can preorder a new broadband package from eircom and it will be upgraded when the line is, which would be cool if we're only talking a few months, but if its going to be a long time I'd rather know that and look into the best DSL packages instead.

So can you tell me is the estimated times on the coverage map accurate? Or more specifically do you know if any work is being done in the immediate future on the coverage in the Dunleer area?

Thanks

Hi teatoas,

Hi teatoast.

Eircom hope to have the Dunleer exchange in louth enabled for NGB by the end of september. I checked your line in terms of possible speed, and given the distance your address is from the exchange. The best speed we can offer even on NGB is "up to 2MB".

Thanks, Mark

Hi

I am afraid there is no indication / time-frame available as yet as to when the Monasterevin exchange in Kildare will be NGB enabled.

Thanks, Mark
