Switzerland 10 Gbit/s Fiber at home for 50 Swiss francs (USD 52, EUR 42) per month
A local provider launched today 10 Gbit/s fiber super cheap.
I'm really wondering if they would like my usage case on this.
I think such price is worldwide very rare. As they also clearly say unlimited and the fact that on their 4G network they don't make trouble with 10+ TB monthly this could be true.
Only downside I must use my Juniper MX80 that I have as spare part here, as my Ubiquiti router don't offer 10G.

... They use something called the GPON-topology. So these 10Gbit/s are shared with 32 or 64 customers.
Also their peering so far is almost single-homed (Cogent). They peer with Swisscom but I wonder where they actually use this peering.
Someone told me they would merge the network to https://bgp.he.net/AS12322
As this offer would make no sense trough Cogent/Swisscom.
Regarding GPON I don't know, nowhere officially mention. Kuenzler/Init7 try to protect his own offer.
Sure, I agree with you. We'll see how it goes.
I'd still sign up for that in an instant for ~$53/mo, lol.
Don't wait and sign up
I'm paying $14 for 4M/1M ADSL
I guess their TOS state that you're not allowed to run homeservers etc. ?
I'm sure it being shared and this being Salt it sucks.
If you want good home isp check out init7.
Sure it will be shared, but depending on the destinations probably you can reach the max speed.
As I got informed there was a high impact from the new owner of Salt who runs a popular ISP in France.
I don't know the home offer of Init7 but their business offers suck and somehow I don't like Peering-Fredy.
even if, it's rly nice offer!
Its shared, not dedicated, they do not even guarantee you minimum bandwidth.
You will be soon eligible for Salt Fiber Box.Lets Hope for the best.
Some VPS could become unnecessary.
Well, tell someone that pays 55€/month for 64/10Mbit VDSL (with guarantee at least 32/5Mbit) that his connection is better than shared 10Gbit FTTH.
Nobody can guarantee you something. Or do you really think if Init7 has 100 customers on the PoP, they have a 100G link to the backbone? If you wish redundancy, they'd need at least 200G in total!
It's also useless if you don't have an SLA with payback, for the case they breach the SLA.
That's great and all but you'll never hit max speed on anything, ever. Would be awesome if you ran a softether node though
Just ordered as it is quite good deal than my current one.
