Pimp my broadband

Can anyone provide a decent broadband service in Ballygarvan ? I'm with Smart but it is poor and the speed regularly drops to below that of dialup .Tech support is non-existent. Amocom might be able to provide a wireless service, eircom have no plans at the moment and AHC may be able to do something.

Given that there are 170 or so houses due to be built here shortly, it might reward some provider to get in first with a decent offering.

Vodafone are now offering 3G data cards for laptops at €49 per month.This may come down if O2 and others enter the market.
