Hi,

I am based in North Cork and about to start a job based at home,which requires a broadband connection(currently using wifi). I called Vodafone who, on their website, showed good coverage in my area. However upon calling them on the phone they stated Eircom don't cover the area and Vodafone run their line through them....

Would ye know of any other company/ broadband provider that does not have Eircom as their main supplier? Or do all companies have to go through Eircom?

Thanks in advance.
