Make sure your out of contract.
With myself I go over the limit over Xmas , Easter when on holidays. However over the year it cheaper than paying for a more expensive package. |

You need a cable or phoneline broadband with unlimited broadband.
The xbox can use up to a gb an hour depending on what you are doing so you will have to look at upc or eircom probably.
All the mobile ones are restricted to a maximum data allowance a month which probably wont suit you. |

There are websites such as uswitch which will compare the various packages for you. Check them out. |

"Just got notice - UPC are going to 240 mbps for those on 200 mbps plus other free free features starting in Feb. Yipee."
generally, domestic users don't need more than 50mbps. I think a lot of people are paying for something they don't even use or need. |

That's true but my use is a little bit more than domestic. |

"Upc have a package with unlimited usage but their new box doesn't have the range of their old one. However it's great for streaming, gaming etc"
UPC drops connection too much and kills active games. No good for gaming if it continues to do that. Checked about and seems to be a constant issue. New modem is pretty poor too |

The speed is good but not consistent. "
Like a lot of factors for this technology it can depend on the location. So far I've not had any problems when I need full throttle with UPC. |

If u are stuck in a contract with ur current provider there is a way around that without any penalties . If u are not getting the speed u are promised on contract . U just have to say u are recording the call and want to cancel ur contract due to not receiving ur speed and if the don't cancel u will be getting on to com reg . Works nearly every time I do it for customers all the time with broadband and tv issues |
