Eircom have kept their promise
Eircom promised to upgrade their customers broadband speeds by the end of July and with just 5 days to go I noticed my connection restart. A quick check of the router homepage and sure enough – I’ve been upgraded to 7.6Mb. 
I thought I was supposed to have been upgraded to 10Mb as I previously was on 4Mb so I guess that’s one for Monday morning. My upload is now 672k so that should speed things up a bit for those of you who visit.
22 queries. 0.496 seconds.
omg they made mine faster too..7616/672
they probably need to send you a new modem for 10mbits maybe they havn’t even upgraded the exchange to adsl2 yet
their site still advertises 3 and 4 mbit o.O
That might be it don’t know though. What was your download speed before?
3072 i think
Mine was 4Mb down and 384k up. The doubling of the upstream is rather an improvement I think..
I will be moving house soon and I saw an offer – 4 mb for about 17 euro with unlimited download limit.
It’s enough for me… :]
4Mb for €17 sounds pretty excellent! Although that is by Irish standards.
My 7.6Mb is €40 per month before VAT which isn’t all that bad either
