Moved recently to a small village in Kerry and the broadband isnt terrible (20Mb/4Mb) but was curious if I had other options. We have a mix of mobile providers (Vodafone/Three/Eir) but most of the time we all have 1 bar so I dont think LTE would be better than the ADSL we have. I am surround by mountains and can see…

Moved recently to a small village in Kerry and the broadband isnt terrible (20Mb/4Mb) but was curious if I had other options. We have a mix of mobile providers (Vodafone/Three/Eir) but most of the time we all have 1 bar so I dont think LTE would be better than the ADSL we have. I am surround by mountains and can see masts/dishes and other equipment up there but when I google "fixed wireless broadband in Kerry" I dont get many results other than the usual "rural wifi" that are LTE based. Was hoping there would be fibre going up the mountains and I would be able to get 100/150Mb PtP fixed wireless. I was looking at Starlink too but could not justify the cost of ~1800 for the first year when I have 20Mb/4Mb. If anyone knows some providers down here in Kerry that provide what I am looking for please let me know. Cheers
