About

OOL-IX is a community broadband project operating Australia-wide from Queensland's Gold Coast. It is a non-profit organisation in formation that adapts and builds on the system of the very successful Amsterdam Internet Exchange (AMS-IX), one of the largest Internet peering exchanges in the world, handling more than 9 TeraBytes per second in the peak hours [See the traffic graphs]. 

OOL-IX aims to bring together local expertise, local talents, and broadband enthusiasts with a view to provide the best possible outcome for all those involved in broadband roll-outs both on and around the Gold Coast. 

You do not need to be a big ISP to join in. You don't need to be a Geek to join in. You may be doing home networks, office networks or networks for institutions and schools. You may be creating software applications or websites. You may be a broadband equipment vendor. Or you may just take pleasure in organising Plug-Fests, Oktober-Fests or similar happenings. If you have an affinity to any of those things then you should be part of the club.
