[ILUG] Irish Broadband Wireless Connection

[ILUG] Irish Broadband Wireless Connection

Irish Broadband Wireless 1Gb costs 35.99 euros per month, plus free 
installation (before end July). That's about 70 euros less per month 
than my current bill for Vodafone's pathetic Connect Card ('Disconnect 
Card' would be more apt) with a putative 57.6Kbs speed (in reality, 2Kbs 
per second average after hang ups and time outs!).

The building the broadband is being implemented in has two existing 
'router'/'hubby' like boxes. One has 24 ethernet sockets and 'RWDATA' 
printed on the box. The other has 8 ethernet sockets and 'CENTRE COM 
MR815T' as its John Henry. Does anyone know if these would be suitable 
for 'routing' the internet link? And if so, why 2 boxes?
