TL:DR; Who offers gigabit with multiple IPs?

Hey guys,

I'll be looking for a new ISP soon and am a little out of date with the current offerings. I've been looking at BigPipe who offer a static IP for a once off $45. Does anyone know if they offer multiple IPs or are there any other providers who offer gigabit with multiple IP addresses? I'm well aware that not all services may be available at my address. I just want to know what's out there.

I play games with mates (host a server or two), run a couple of web services (personal use, not public), and run a VPN for accessing the rest. I *COULD* just change the port on the VPN, but it's not as smooth looking to use vpn.example.com:1234.

Edit: Second question. Does gigabit get bounced to an ethernet by default or does your modem/router need to have fibre connectivity options?

Cheers,

- Toucan

We don't provide multiple IPv4 addresses sorry - one IPv4 address per connection, be it behind CGNAT or a public, static one.

If you join and want IPv6 we can assign you a /60, or 295147905179352825856 IPv6 addresses. :)

You could request a SFP option if you're signing up for business grade fibre, and plug your fibre straight into the router.

For residential grade fibre (Bitstream 2), you don't have that option. There will be an ONT inside your house which will convert the fibre into 1000BASE-T and you plug your router into that using standard ethernet cables.

I think 2degrees were doing a /29 on residential.

For business you have the pick of the likes of DTS, Voyager, Solarix, Vibe (not in any particular order). They are able to provide pretty much anything from standard stuff through to a proper connection with VLANs, BGP, etc.
