Broadband AltNet Aggregator Flexgrid Now Supports 24 UK Networks
Brighton-based Flexgrid, which describes itself as the UK-focused connectivity aggregator for the channel market, has announced that they’ve launched a new website and now support the ability for partners to compare and order full fibre broadband services through a total of 24 alternative network (altnet) providers and suppliers.
The list of current partners now includes the likes of Zayo, PXC, Openreach, Virgin Media, CityFibre, CommunityFibre, Gigaclear, ITS Technology, Netomnia, MS3, Airband, FullFibre Ltd, Elevate, Freedom Fibre, F&W Networks, Glide, Hyperoptic, Fibrus (Hyperfast GB), KCOM, LightSpeed Broadband, Zzoomm, Quickline and Neos Networks.
Flexgrid’s altnet ecosystem, alongside Openreach’s network, is now said to reach approximately 70% of UK businesses, extending full fibre broadband beyond many traditional wholesale networks. The portfolio of products includes services from Ethernet to FTTP, SD-WAN, cellular and also satellite connectivity services.

Frazer Cannadine, Sales Director at Flexgrid, said:
“Many ISPs are still defining how to approach AltNets, but Flexgrid has built one of the most comprehensive AltNet platforms available to the channel and is already working with several ISPs and MSPs to deliver full fibre broadband for their customers. We are offering services at L3 today and aim to have L2 available for the end of Q1 26. Our channel partners can take a wires only service, deploying their own edge equipment or take a managed service for an end to end experience“.
We should point out that there are a variety of altnet aggregators out there today (Zen’s Fibre Hub, PXC etc.), although these are difficult providers to accurately compare.
