You are smart, maybe not enough time to do it :)?

Design isn't my strong suit. I've been thinking about a decent dashboard to show the health of our infrastructure for our CIO (and maybe put it in the public somewhere?) but just can't really get the look right. May try and do Grafana for that but it's a very low priority.

BT told to share poles for ultrafast fibre internet
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-43168564This could be big in the UK, this will allow providers to supply direct like Virgin Cable stuff. Or FTTP by other ISP's

500 pounds to connect a house to fiber? That's so inexpensive.

@coliver Yeah but hopefully if others start installing cables everywhere and people sign up the prices will go down
well at least i hope they will. -
They should of bit the bullet and dug up the uk streets years ago and just laid the fibre, instead BT have only put fibre to the cabinet at the end of the street....people want full fibre to the home now...not half copper and fibre....

The subsidies provided obviously weren't enough.
I have fibre to my house and it's great. . . and stupidly cheap as well.

It was for a redundant connection. We didn't need it but we were hosting... everything... in house.

Don't most US based homes have fibre direct to the premises? or do you have a mix of vdsl/adsl/fibre depending on state?

We said no we an't paying for the Upgrade to give everyone Fibre !!!! you do it and we will sign up under normal conditions
