Irish Wireless Provider Leaps Ahead
Posted: 08th Apr, 2003 By: MarkJ
Irelands growing fixed broadband wireless Internet access provider, Leap Broadband, has expanded its coverage:
The firm has attached base stations to two of RTE's biggest towers, including the state broadcaster's site on Three Rock Mountain in County Dublin. From these sites, Leap says it can offer Internet services in a radius of up to 15km. Moreover, the company claims that its service can go as far as 20km, stretching from Swords to Clondalkin to the northern boarder of County Wicklow, for users who are willing to purchase special equipment.
Within the last two weeks the firm placed its base station on the tower at Three Rock, and the company's station on RTE's tower in Donnybrook has been in place since late December. It was around that time that Leap said it had reached its 100th customer milestone, and according to Director Charlie Ardagh, the firm is now nearing the 200 mark.
The ElectricNews item notes that Leaps 1Mbps service costs roughly 199 Euros per month.
