Eircom's attitude on this is bizarre.
They behave as though it is your fault - or an act of the gods -
that their line is faulty.
Surely if Ireland is the e-hub of the universe
it should be a requirement on Eircom to bring lines up to a standard
where they are capable of transmitting data.
I wonder if ComReg has been pursued on this?
