Hi there,

Up until last week I used to be able to enter a phone number on the eircom website and it would give me a line test result telling me what speed ADSL to expect at the property. When I tried it today it has just changed to telling me "efibre not available." Does anyone know if it is still possible to access the line checker or if there is an alternative?

Vodafone have one on their site but it just reports the speed of the local exchange rather than testing the line.

I'm about to move house and it was very useful to be able to check the line speeds at the various houses without phoning eircom every time!

Thanks!

I'm never going to see my line going above 1MB... :pac:

Going to be stuck with mobile wireless, and their low data allowances forever...
