    My local exchange has just been NGB enabled. I can therefore now get Eircom NGB (have O2 3G dongle at present and speeds are getting slower by the day so I need to get rid of it)

    My question is
    Now that exchange has been upgraded to NGB will this mean I can get any other providers to supply a quicker broadband at more competitive prices compared to the Eircom NGB or is this my only option if I am looking for decent service

    NGB is available to any eircom reseller that wants to take it up and offer it to customers.

    Yes, same speeds that Eircom can provide, but lower prices (In most cases.)

    Great thanks Guys

    do you know where I can find out what company's do offer this or is it just a case of going to each website and digging around

    Any recommendations for someone good - price, download caps and speed are important factors

    Vodafone, Digiweb and Magnet are the once coming directly to mind (not sure on Magnet though).
