    anybody having problems in this area in the last week or so. I've used this and it has been fine for over a year but in last few days I get a lot of page lookup failures and have to keep reloading pages. video like youtube generally not possilble. have rang them up about this. same laptop and dongle works fine in other areas of dublin. if anyone is having same problem please ring the helpline as they need multiple people ringing to look into it.

    I'm in Kilbarrack close to the Howth Junction mobile mast so my signal is fine. But I'm getting dropouts as well. Close to 0Kb/sec sometimes - enough to fail a page load and then it'll be faster for a little bit, then slower. It's doing it right now - cannot load facebook at all at the moment - just times out....

    And now, 2 mins later, it's zipping along. I think they may be having router or traffic issues that aren't necessarily to do with 3G...

    Edit: Nope, it's the 3G... Doing the initial connect just timed out on me after 30 seconds. They've definately got some sort of problem there...

    is this still happening for you? maybe we're on the same network node. It's basically been unusable for the last week for me. They tell me that it's been escalated to the technical team but nothing has been done yet. I'm not a tech expert but looks like an issue with their DNS server which resolves the web addresses - this is obviously not working.

    Anything happen in the end with this problem?

    I ask because I'm in Arklow on Meteor BB and since Thursday night I've had the exact same problem. Rang them up on Saturday and was told there was mast upgrading going on (or something) and it should be finished "soon" but the connection is still useless.
