    Hey Guys.

    Anyone hear much about a cable cut between Limerick and Portlaoise?

    Im experiencing awful speeds at the moment (normally it's very good for me) and rang their customer support and been informed that they are having big issues with a cut cable between Limerick and Portlaoise. 1000s of customers affected

    Now im based in Tipp but I believe I get my broadband/signalling via a dish at the exchange pointed towards Limerick.

    its now resolved look here, pity service status was provided after the outage, bet a lot of routers were rebooted, head scratching etc, me included.
