    I presume you mean Saorview over the Internet?

    Refer your neighbour to the Saorview website - http://www.saorview.ie/what-is-saorview/, TV/Radio/Digital Teletext only

    There was a plan 10-12 years ago to offer internet with DTT but the company didn't get the licence.

    Moved to Terrestrial, though the question's basically been answered.

    Satellite 'broadband' (it's discussed in the 'midband' forum here) is already available. Not from the same satellites as the UK channels & not with receive-only equipment (obviously).
