    Hi
    Has anyone had any experience directly of this company operating out of Derry but also covering parts of North Donegal. Just found out they are covering south Inishowen now. Please PM if needs be. Thanks

    I signed up with them about a month ago as I couldn't wait to bin BlueBox.  They seem to be much more helpful and speeds seem to be more consistent.  So far so good anyway...

    Hi. Does anyone know if this will work in Rossnowlagh? I don't know if I need to put a landline in or not.

    I would sincerely doubt it. They're a wireless operator and you'd be well outside their current catchment area.

    Ive had them for 4 months or so now and cant really fault their speeds.  CUstomer service is very good too compared to bluebox.

    Only problem is my wife works from home and sometimes when on calls the latency means she sometimes cant be heard or drops out...a bit frustrating.

    But for overall netflix, you tube etc its great.
