Hello,

I am expaning my company into the broadband/telephone/web design market.

I was just wondering if there was a neich for hosts to resel broadband if so who would be interested? It would be from 8mb up to 24mb.

Regards,

Andrew

Where are we talking location wise, and do you have any ideas/plans to your pricing/details for potential resellers yet? If you're in the UK there are a few companies, some public, that are reselling DSL..

[AndrewMKP]

Yes UK based but I look to aim more at the webhosting market and offer it to them to have a '1-up' on their competator.

Regards,

Andrew.

Most people want the cheapest price possible for their ADSL, you'll struggle to compete in the UK market unless you're providing something that others don't. Also, don't forget that you need to register with an approved ADR scheme if you do go ahead with offering any sort of ADSL/Phone/Net Access services.

Where would I go about registering for an ADR scheme then?

There are a few large Game Server Providers that do it who guarentee hardly any hops to there servers and optimized for gaming. Its a premium cost. The market is small but it is there.

Hops mean nothing, you can get from Scotland to London in one hop - MPLS can hide a multitude of routing sins these days.
