The first 35 areas to get high-speed internet under the National Broadband Plan have been revealed. The network points are set to be installed by the end of 2021. Rural areas around Limerick, Galway, Kilkenny, and near Carragaline in Co. Cork will be the first to get connected. However, most of the new high-speed "network points" in the first phase of the National Broadband Plan will be in the midlands and the east of the country. Once the network hubs are installed, they will provide a high-speed connection to homes and businesses within a radius of 30 kilometres.
