Myke (mware@mstdn.ca)'s status on Tuesday, 07-Nov-2023 10:07:40 JST Myke @johnefrancis We're already a DSL wholesaler with ßELL so this is a logical next step.
Odds are I won't initially offer more than 500MBit, not because nobody needs it, but because we only have so much capacity today, but I have $$$ earmarked for this development. We're ready to figure out how to move quickly.
