Hi,

I will be relocating to Athlone with my family soon and was wondering what the broadband connections are like there? I work from home, so a good and stable connection is crucial in my case. We will be moving to Cloghanboy Crescent. Has anyone had any good/bad experiences with their broadband around that area? Also, which provider(s) would you recommend?

Many thanks in advance for your help!
