    what i heard (and believe to be true) is that two lads from ballymun went around cutting all the n** cables in every area in ballymun.thats how finglas and the surrounding area was affected.to me that sounded the most likly because i have friends from ballymun and finglas and both of there n** was gone and i live in the city centre just 5 min walk from o'connell street and my N** was fine no problems at all.

    i was on the bus with a guy who knew them he said they did it for a laugh.

    also if they were to send out some kind of virus(highly doubt)would it not kill there own boxs also.

    main you wouldn't believe what goes on out there.my granny lives there and her cable was cut for no reason before.someone cut the eircom phone line so she had no house phone for 4 weeks.it was just fixed last Thursday.

    Ryan as you said only some are gone the C***** network has not gone down so i would say it is a network thing with N** so i would say to people wait for a while could be a breakdown in there service so be patient if there is a key change we will get it so be patient
