    I live in ashford and need an alternative to landline broadband, looking to see if anyone has info on regional or Wicklow broadband service? I need unlimited but worried about speeds during peak times, my current landline is very terrible and now sign of fibre u grade anytime soon.

    Use this Map, drop the marker on your house and tick the Wireless ISPs option. This will then show if there are WISPs that cover your area.

    Check the offerings on their websites to find out if they do unlimited data. Before they install though, they will probably need to check if their transmitters hit your house, as they need line-of-sight. That shouldn't cost you anything to find that out.
