• Anyone have experience with Hyperoptic? Briefly chatted to an engineer of theirs working nearby who said it may be available around March/April.

    Currently on Virgin 350Mb and - unlike many of my neighbours - am perfectly happy with the service, just feel that I'm paying for stuff (landline and TV package) that I rarely use. Looks like I could get Hyperoptic 1Gb plus separate subscriptions for Sky Sports and BT Sport much cheaper than what I'm paying now.

  • I had a 1Gb/s Hyperoptic connection installed in my mum's flat a few years ago. At the time, 1Gb/s up and down was the preserve of £1K/month leased lines, truly mind blowing to have it in a residential setting for £50/mo.

    I hosted a few servers from hers for a while using it. No contention to speak of, low latency as to be expected.

    Not heard a peep from my mum in all the time she's had it, 'it just works'.
