Muskerry Gaeltacht petition over broadband speed

Residents of Cork’s Muskerry Gaeltacht are to petition Eircom, in protest at the quality of the company’s broadband service in the area.

An online petition — which so far includes more than 270 signatures — calls on Eircom to improve the broadband speed.

Organisers say the service is currently having an “extremely negative impact on all Eircom customers in the community as well as on local trade and business”.
