Mullingar is Westmeath's county town and Cusack Park there hosts the county's home games. Westmeath football has had a genuinely successful run in the Tailteann Cup, which has lifted interest in the championship locally well beyond where it sat a decade ago. The county also has a hurling side that competes at its own level. Being in the Dublin commuter belt, a good share of households here travel east daily, and fibre coverage in the town is reasonable while the surrounding countryside still depends on the National Broadband Ireland rollout. The practical question in Mullingar is much the same as in Navan: does it work in the house, at the busy hour, on the night the match is actually on.
Mullingar has reasonable fibre coverage across the town, with the usual midlands falloff heading out towards Castlepollard, Kinnegad and the rural parts of Westmeath where the National Broadband Ireland rollout is still the determining factor. The town sits in the Dublin commuter belt, so a good share of households travel east daily and the viewing is concentrated into the evening. Housing is largely family homes and newer estates. The practical test here is the ordinary one done properly: run it at your own address on a busy weeknight, ideally against a Westmeath championship game if the fixture falls right, and judge it on that rather than on a midday speed test that flatters every connection equally.
