Two things here :

1. Check your installation and the length of cabling between the phone
socket and the modem, this should improve things a bit.
2. You might want to go away from Eircom (if at all possible). I went
from eircom 56k to netsource 1M to Smart 8M and Smart has been the
best in terms of line quality (and they use ADSL2+ technology with no
contention which is a real bonus). Their phone tech support is quite
horrible but I have yet to find an ISP which proper trained and
cluefull staff.

Cheers,
Steph
