Posting because this is a good record for me
. Not sure I've ever seen it over 5 before - last time eircom rang to try to get us to move back to them, they said we could go up to 5, but normally on a good day it's around 3.5 - 4. And the other night it was down to .5 for most of the evening :mad:, when it wasn't down altogether.

That is Eircom fibre to the home you would have to be very lucky to even get it
Are you part of a secret trial ? - 'What Ireland could be like if the govt. got the finger out' :cool:
A secret trial as in i have FTTH? Ha i wish i aint ever gonna get fibre where i live 8Mb DSL is the max here or ''upto 12Mb'' With Three's 3G which for me outperforms my DSL at times..
Govt will never invest in BB in IRL they couldnt care less which we all know by now

The problem with mobile is that the speeds can't be guaranteed, you might have good speeds today but tomorrow you might have nothing at all...0 -

Very impressed on the 50mb fiber power in Ashbourne where they have recently arrived... beats 3mb Eircom hands down
I just signed up to UPC in Ashbourne and they could only offer 25MB they said that's the highest available in Ashbourne at the moment. How did you get 50? Where in Ashbourne are you?0 -

I recently upgraded from 25mb to 50mb upc pack, UPC sent me out a new modem the 'epc3925'. But the problem I had was that the wifi connection was poor, I rang UPC yesterday and they said they changed the connection line for me, but this only helped to stabalise the connection from jumping from high speeds to very low. The problem now is that the new modem I got has poor wifi range, I'm barley getting 20mb on my laptop upstairs, the last modem i had the epc2425 could get me a full conection on my laptop,I rang UPC today and asked them could i plug in a better router to my modem and they said yes. So what I was wondering Would I still be able to use my phone line from the 'epc3925' modem but use the wifi from the new router.
Also:
I was thinking of buying the 'Belkin 750db' router, would this help in getting a better wifi connection around my house for gaming upstairs .ect.
Thanks in advance:D0 -

guess I may get the phone out again and saying - yes I've tried connecting directly to the socket in the wall... yes I've ran the speed test on the Eircom website and it's the same as the one that speedtest.net gave me... yes I've tried connecting to the router with an Ethernet cable and the speeds are the same as when I'm using WiFi...
gonna be the third time this year I've had to ring up asking to see what the story with my internet is... I envy ye with who have 100mb broadband speeds and can complain when it drops down to 70mbs0
