NTL Cable (some areas bad), IBB Breeze (Ripwave is a Wireless  ISDN 
replacement,  not Broadband at all),  Digiweb  Metro  (DSL/Cable like  
with  phone ports QOS private IP VOIP built  in with real phone number & 
sockets) , Digiweb  Wireless (Like  Breeze).

Magnet fibre or Smart fibre (The DSL LLU / GLUMP  is still 17 Euro a 
month to eircom)

Your own connection to enet MAN :-)

Avoid Clearwire, Satellite,  Ripwave, Ripwave  Plus , eircom  FWA.
