- moritonal 4y agoAs a fellow Londerer please please expand on this. Like, why, what were the returns, what'd you peer into?
- jleahy 4y agoWhy - 30mbps download and 0.5mbps upload, it was really the upload that was crippling (think video conferencing) What were the returns - time will tell, but I probably have the best internet in London What do we peer into - 10Gbps of NTT, two more 1 Gbps full peering sessions, plus the LONAP internet exchange to pick up Google, Netflix, etc. Plus my wife (AS210412) peers with me (AS211289) of course.
- KingFelix 4y agoHow long did it take to complete? Central London seems like high density, how many users do you have? Can you share website, I can forward to some central London folks!
- jleahy 4y agoLess than 12 months from incorporating a company to go live, about 6 months of that was road works. Low hundreds of homes (so low probability that you know anyone there, and if you do they have already heard about it). https://www.linkedin.com/mwlite/company/hampstead-fibre https://www.linkedin.com/mwlite/company/hampstead-fibre

- jleahy 4y agoWe were interns (software engineers) at Deutsche Bank, and unfortunately she didn’t have an ASN back then. Also some bias shows here - surely the question should be ‘how did you meet your wife with multiple 3 ton excavators’.
- bitcoinmoney 4y agoWhat kind of research did you do to achieve this? Any workshops or did you talk to other ISPs to gain knowledge?
