Symmetric multi-gig on the Freedom Fibre network. Static IPv4. No CGNAT. No throttling. Built for the people in Knutsford who actually use what they pay for.
Knutsford is one of Cheshire's more affluent market towns and the kind of place where people work remotely on high-bandwidth jobs but have historically been stuck on mediocre fibre. Freedom Fibre's XGS-PON build covers nearly four hundred premises in WA16, and Olilo's 5Gbps tier gives those households the symmetric multi-gig option the incumbents don't offer here.
Coverage runs through the town centre, Legh Road and out toward Over Knutsford and the A50 corridor.

Pricing for the 5Gbps tier in Knutsford hasn't been published yet. Olilo's existing Freedom Fibre 2.3Gbps service starts at £56/month with no install fee on a 12-month term, and the 5Gbps tier will sit above that. We'll publish the launch price ahead of the rollout.
