A Cork family has become the first to have their home connected under the state’s €3bn National Broadband Plan.
The O'Connor family, who live in a part of Carrigaline that previously had no reliable broadband available said the new connection to high-speed fibre broadband is going to bring “incredible benefits” to their family.
