One tunnel.Your whole network.
For ISPs, multi-site corporates, and MSPs who want the carrier invisible.
L2TP tunnel handoff from Giant's UK wholesale broadband network into your LNS gateway. All end-customer traffic emerges from your IP space, on your AS, behind your brand. We carry the routes; you control everything visible. For full white-label reselling without operating an LNS, see the wholesale platform.

End-customer lines under a single tunnel — typical ISP estate.
Provision new customers in seconds by adding a username at your LNS. No per-line carrier ticket. Static IPs from your pool, BGP routes you announce, branding entirely yours.
Four customer profiles. Different reasons.
L2TP isn't a residential broadband product. It's an infrastructure handoff for operators who run their own network and need wholesale capacity behind it. Four typical buyer profiles below.
White-label residential ISP
You sell broadband under your brand, we wholesale the line. Customer's WAN IP is yours, the carrier handoff is invisible. End-customer sees only you.
Boutique altnets, regional ISPs, community network operators
Multi-site corporate
50–500 branch offices each on a broadband line. All terminate to your HQ via L2TP, route via your central firewall, single security perimeter.
Retail chains, hospitality groups, financial-services branch networks
Managed service provider
You provide broadband as part of a managed-IT contract. L2TP into your NOC keeps QoS, monitoring, and remote-support tooling on a single management plane.
IT-MSPs, hospitality MSPs, healthcare network managers
Public-Wi-Fi operator
Hundreds of guest-Wi-Fi hotspots each backed by a broadband line. L2TP centralises captive-portal authentication + content filtering at your gateway.
Café chains, transport-hub operators, council-area public Wi-Fi
Where the packets actually go. Schematic.
The carrier broadband line terminates at our edge, gets encapsulated into an L2TP tunnel, and reappears at your LNS gateway as a PPP session. Your LNS is the customer's first-hop router. We're invisible past the carrier wire.
Round-trip from end-customer to your LNS adds only a small amount of latency on top of the underlying broadband line. We're physically present at the major UK interconnect points — we'll point you at the closest to your data centre for the LNS endpoint.
Four reasons it's still the wholesale default.
MPLS is heavier. SD-WAN doesn't replace the carrier handoff. Direct fibre is one site only. L2TP is the right shape for many sites under one IP control plane.
One carrier, your IP space
All your end-customer broadband traffic terminates inside your network on your IP space — not the carrier's. You're the ISP-of-record from the customer's perspective.
BGP-routed, static IP pools
Bring your own AS + IPv4/v6 prefixes. We carry your routes via BGP into the tunnel and back out at the carrier edge. Static IPs pooled or allocated per-customer.
Single L2TP gateway
Replace dozens of per-line carrier credentials with a single LNS gateway in your DC / cloud. Provision new customers by adding a username — no carrier ticket required.
Carrier transparency
End-customer traffic appears to come from your IP space. They never see Giant's hostnames, DNS, or carrier branding. Pure white-label.
Specs that
don't surprise you.
Standard L2TPv2 over UDP/1701. We accept BGP, dual-stack v4 + v6, RADIUS auth at either end. The bits that need to integrate with your existing LNS gear all do.
ISO 27001
Our wholesale infrastructure is ISO 27001 certified — audit log + access control evidence available for compliance.
Sub-5ms tunnel overhead
L2TP encapsulation adds <5ms on top of the underlying line. Negligible for everything except gaming.
Wholesale API integration
Provision end-customer lines via the same REST API as our resi/business products. No separate console.

Weeks to migrate a 500-line ISP estate.
Provision the new tunnel + test sessions in parallel with your existing carrier, port end-customer lines in batches, final cut-over of the old tunnel. Zero end-customer downtime per port.
