What is Idnet?

Our network is distributed over two top-of-their-class datacentres in London's Docklands at Telehouse and at Telecity. Each facility is connected to each other by redundant Ten-Gigabit Ethernet circuits and each hosts autonomous services and independent external Internet connections for both international peering and global transit reach. Our core global Internet connectivity is presented in London, Frankfurt, Stockholm, Paris and Amsterdam where we are connected to the major International Internet Exchange Points: LINX (London), LONAP (London), DE-CIX (Frankfurt), NETNOD (Stockholm), FRANCE-IX (Paris) and AMS-IX (Amsterdam). At these Exchanges we have peering connections with over 800 global networks, enabling us to deliver data from around the world at incredibly fast speeds. All external circuits are duplicated to ensure redundant failover in the event of an outage. In order to ensure that our own internal network can survive unexpected equipment failure every router and switch is deployed as a pair working in tandem. Should a device fail then our core network will automatically self-heal to route traffic around the problem, maintaining full service, allowing us to replace and repair the fault without disrupting normal operations. The core network and external connectivity is monitored 24/7 with alerts issued to duty engineers in the event of a failure or unusual traffic event. Where a circuit regularly reaches 70% utilisation the capacity of that link is increased to provide sufficient headroom again.

Review Summary

Generated using AI from real user reviews

Idnet receives overwhelmingly positive reviews, though one detailed complaint stands out starkly against the rest. Five reviewers praise the service for fast, reliable connections at a competitive price, with particular emphasis on suitability for both home and business use. One user highlighted strong customer service and good value for a self-employed startup, while others noted the availability of leased lines across locations.

However, one long-standing customer left over a billing dispute rather than service quality. They described being charged £10 monthly without notification for two years, receiving only a dismissive "standard rate" response when they contacted the company about removing the charges, despite offering to renew their contract. This reviewer acknowledged the product and service were "mostly sound" but felt the company's unwillingness to negotiate with a loyal customer of two and a half years represented a failure in customer relations that prompted them to switch providers and caused service disruption.

Three reviews mention improved search rankings and sales, though these read as somewhat generic testimonials. The overall picture is of solid technical performance and affordability, undermined by at least one instance of poor billing transparency and inflexible retention decisions when faced with a long-term customer dispute.
