Broadband service providers operate in a fully liberalised market, regulated, where appropriate, by the independent Commission for Communications Regulation, ComReg. Technical difficulties associated with the provision of broadband service are matters for the relevant service providers. The following list, from my Department's website, www.broadband.gov.ie details the availability of broadband services in the Cong area, including six DSL and fourteen satellite service providers. The website also gives comparative details of prices and service levels, and can be used to check if an individual telephone line can carry DSL broadband.
