Re: Hyperoptic vs BT FTTP


[re: Irby] [link to this post]
 
Perhaps if you explained the subtle meaning of it, which is clearly beyond my tiny brain to divine, I might appreciate its cleverness and compliment you on it smile.

My broadband basic info/help site - www.robertos.me.uk | Domains,site and mail hosting - Tsohost.
Connection - Plusnet UnLim Fibre (FTTC). Sync ~ 59.4/14.4Mbps @ 600m. - BQM

I think HyperOptic install multiple 1Gig connections to the building, so if you buy the Hyper-Sonic plan you get 1Gig to your door.

Best thing about HyperOptic is all the plans are symmetric. 20/20 or 100/100 or 1000/1000 !!

The end user link is 1Gb. It's a 1Gb Cat5e/6 link to a switch onsite. From there the connection hits backhaul of n x 1Gb aggregated or 10Gb.

330Mb FTTP doesn't have a 330Mb guarantee on its throughput from what I can see?

Up to 32/64 customers share a PON split of 2.4Gb downstream with a further contention point across the CableLink from Openreach to CP. The only way Openreach can guarantee the 330Mb is to only connect 7 customers to each OLT, though I welcome correction on this!

As the product stands at the moment with BTWholesale the only 'mainstream' purchaser of GEA-FTTP there'll be the contention between the exchange, as the FTTP joins the rest of the traffic on the SVLAN, and the LAC then another contention point across MSIL to ISP.

I get 20/20 included with the flat from Hyperoptic - not sure how long for.

I can upgrade to 100/100 for £10/month and 1000/1000 for £20/month.

I'll see how I get on with hyperoptic. The only thing that possibly worries me is their peering - they're are a very small ISP and if they had bad congestion on their transit links, I can see it being horribly overloaded quite quickly.

£20 for 1000/1000. Lucky. If it was me I'd go for that, just for the hell of it.

Get both, do a performance vs cost comparison and report all findings here?
Haha, too much too ask?
