Do you have broadband?
I'm cancelling my account with BT after years of terrible service, I finally got Oftel to listen. 
Now I need another ISP and am looking to have a broadband connection. My problem is that I don't know which ISP to use.
Do any of you have broadband connections? If so how much is it? Is it a good service? Easy to install etc? Would you recommend your provider to me?

I got ADSL installed in January.
I have 4 machine's and a server in a network, so I got an external ADSL modem, and a hardware Firewall/switch.
Works brilliantly!
Can connect to the internet from any machine, or all at the same time
I you get a broadband connection, make sure you get either a hardware or software firewall - or both
The one I have works really well, and has a web interface, where you can adjust settings and check statistics.
A friend of mine with cable internet uses Norton Personal Firewall on a machine set up as a proxy server.
