    Anyway ignoring those maps, one of the stations is on james treet which by my calculations is less then 5 km from clontraf, (by line of sight.

    Mmm... yes there are. ESB City Centre Transmitter - Fitzwilliam Street, Dublin 2 followed by one map and then Guinness Transmitter (now there's a wonderful concept that would insure the success of any broadband venture!) - City Centre - COMING SOON followed by another map. They are there, honest :-)


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,538 ✭✭✭PiE


    Still showing just the 3 maps for me...

    Already shift-reloaded and I aint using a proxy... afaik ando is on UTV too, why can't we see it :\

    Yes there are. Do a Shift-Reload on the page, or bypass your ISPs proxy server.

    I see 5 maps on the page linked below, including the "ESB City Centre Transmitter, Fitzwilliam St" and "Guinness Transmitter - coming soon"

    gah, im just beside portobello bridge, well 5 mins walk,

    fingers crossed :D

    congrats irishbroadband , you did your homework on the placement of those transmitters ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,006 ✭✭✭theciscokid


    if you really want to hammer home your customer satisfaction,

    you could give people the freedom they deserve

    i.e. scrap that bloody year contract :)

    no - its more like Areas-of-Dublin-not-obstructed-by-Trees-or-Buildings Broadband :)

    Before anyone accuses this thread of pimping..


    Had a good hard long think about this and while i wish it was part of the existing thread (*me stares at ray*) its probably fair enough theres a new thread for this.


    If eircom did something similar there would be threads like this, plus ibb seems to be the cheapest form of broadband in dublin.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,532 ✭✭✭MDR


    I thought it was only pimping when I stood to gain from it ?

    gonna have to buy me a red hat with peacock feather in it,
    change my name to bubba and get me some bitches ... :D ...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,275 ✭✭✭Chaz


    Mmmm - seems plenty pimping here :-)

    *Chaz cant remeber the nick of the person he met today from boards at 10h20 LOS*


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    yes, would have preferred it in the Broadband forum tbh. Far far too many telcos buzzing this forum ...


    DeV.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,722 ✭✭✭Thorbar


    Any plans to cover the area around Skerries town?


  • Registered Users Posts: 857 ✭✭✭kamobe


    Ah man, they're just teasing me at this stage. Cabra! So close....


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,305 ✭✭✭The Clown Man


    Oh thank god. An alternative at last.

    Templebar coverage - Guinness one - when precisely is "soon?"
