    In my local village eir followed the route of the existing copper lines when they rolled out fibre last year, a mix of existing ducts and poles

    I got an OpenEir sales person to my door saying we were upgraded. I told him we weren't and I showed him the OpenEir website. He didn't think it was right.

    I know Virgin have said they're installing fibre broadband in the area, but was surprised at OpenEir. Was it a mistake or could there be a delay on the website?

    OpenEir are rolling out to rural areas, towns and cities, sometimes actually overlapping with NBI. It’s a mixture of poles and ducts, they just use the existing poles on older streets AFAIK and the ducts that have been placed already in newer houses and estates.

    Virgin Media’s coax network is being replaced with their own FTTP also, which you can get Vodafone, Sky and soon Digiweb through as they have made it wholesale.

    SIRO is usually towns and cities and as you said is utilising ESB infrastructure with the fibre coming up through where your meter is.

    They all overlap in areas and you might have two or more available to you.
