    We are in D2 off of Merrion Square and currently have atrocious service from Eircom, supposedly 12MB download at €40 euros per month but never gets above 6-8MB...ever. And often stalls with just 2-3 users.

    I am also thinking that at the time Eircom installed additional analogue line for us and it may be part of the bottleneck.

    Thinking of a switch to Magnet Fatpipe - would welcome all or any views/input.

    (Also checking again to see if UPC in the area as yet, they werent 6 months ago).

    Magnet is just resold Eircom fiber.

    If you can't get Eircom fiber in the area, then you won't get Magnet Fatpipe.
