Lots of customers querying the issue with Eir/Eircom modem security. In a nutshell, if you have an Eircom modem model number D1000 or P-660HN-T1A (check underneath the modem for the model number) then this issue affects you.

You can find out how to remedy the situation by referring to this website: https://www.eir.ie/modemreset/

Otherwise, if it gets too technical, just drop into us with the modem & power cable and we will rectify the issue for a nominal fee of €10.

Just a few pointers re antivirus software - two types, free & paid versions. If you're just browsing and emailing then the free versions will do. We recommend Avast Free as the best out there. However, if you are doing ANY online banking or purchasing whatsoever please use a paid product. We recommend ESET NOD here at €39. The usual McAfee, Norton, Bullguard are good products but overkill in our opinion in that they duplicate tasks already being carried out admirably by Windows itself and therefore use up your PC s resources unnecessarily. Eel free to fire any questions to us about this topic.
