    esats is only something like 49.50 or is that ireland online. But i thought they were the same. Maybe not.

    eSATS BUSINESS LINE IS 90 PLUS VAT WHICH IS 109 EURO A MONTH
    DEAR
    BUT IT BLOWS EIRCOM AWAY

    I have 512/256 which is really 608/320 and it pings faster than Eircoms 1mb line
    I also ping between 18-35 in game servers in UK (Demon/Barrys)

    I get 64kb/s d/l most times
    oh and it is uncapped

    Not exactly correct in relation to BB. Esat BT DSL is differnet IOL Broadband. The IOL Brand is being used for the residental adsl product whilst the Esat BT Brand is for the business. But Yes, IOL is an Esat BT brand.

    I heard that the Esat BT package is actually capped (5gb, the same as IOL) even though they don't mention it when your signing up. I'm sure there was a thread on that here a while ago.
