    Perlico drive me mad! Regularly unable to access their server, its then just a waiting game anything from a couple of mins to a few hours. Downloading is a mare due to these interruptions . Even changed the router just in case and made no difference. Speed is similar to OP and I am just off the Dublin Rd/back of the Hospital.

    I took the leap to Vodafone from Perlico even though they are the same. Costs 4 quid less. More download space and a new router. Have no issues doing my Saturday afternoon download.

    I have O2 mobile BB and the speed varies but my biggest problem is the download limit. I only have 15GB limit and I want to be able to watch movies and music videos onmy iPad so am changing to another provider but which one???? It'll have to be wireless cos I don't have a phone line.Any recommendations for one with good speed and unlimited download at a responsible price . I'm on north end of Dundalk .
