[Vinnie]

€7.50 250MB
€15.00 1GB
€30.00 10GB

You just call o2 and get them to add it onto your bill. It'd be ideal if you just wanted something to get you by between now and october.

What type of computer are you using?

I called them yesterday and they never suggested any of these as options. Im using an IBM laptop

They're useless. Click on the last two add ons on this page - its all there:

You'd need a 3g mobile and a bluetooth enabled laptop. If you do you're laughing.

NTL do 12 meg for 45 quid

NTL will be 20meg in the next month or two.
Lucky you.

Some rumours that current 3mb NTL users will be moved up to 12mb for no extra cost, once the top tier moves to 20mb. Is this true?

eircom will be doubling their package's ( one meg will be staying the same ) but all others will be doubled very soon at no extra cost.

No, you f***ing ****box, it's not true. You'll be moving to 10mb, ACTUALLY.

The upgrade has happened. The 20 and 10 meg packages now have no usage cap. Glory days.

Not sure. I christened my new speeds by downloading Rambo 4 in HD which was around 7.5gb. Took about 45 mins. Bloody german subtitles but.

Huh? I didn't do that. Just power cycled the modem and it was done.

 

[Ferox13]

Hmmm - on the website it says to do that..

whats a power cycle?

I did a speed test yesterday and it definally wasn't 10meg

 

[Lefty Frizzell]

Unplug the power cable from the modem for 30 seconds and then plug it back in again.
