Metranet sponsoring BarCampBrighton’s WiMAX connection
The Old Music Library is a fantastic venue, but it is lacking in one or two areas… It’s a derelict building, so it doesn’t have a phone line. No phone line, no internet. No internet, not much of a fun BarCamp, so we’re exceptionally pleased that Metranet who have supported us for the previous three BarCamps are once again pulling out all the stops.
This time, they’ve gone above and beyond the call of duty and have put in a temporary site-specific, dedicated 5mpbs symmetric uncontended WiMAX connection. It involved a little more than just plugging in a microfilter and an ADSL router. Take a look at the photoset.
If you’re a Brighton and Hove business and want a service with prices which significantly undercut alternatives such as SDSL, IPStream or leased lines, then get in touch.
incase you missed it http://bit.ly/knMT8 we have a new date 2nd & 3rd October 2010
