Fibre for small business

Yes I do but the problem is according to your sales team don't offer static ip via FTTH

Not via a home product no, via a broadband business service yes.
 
Depending on how often the IP might change and how critical the site is you can do it using Dynamic and a dynamic Dns provider

My IP on Websquad changes less than 5 times a month generally,and the Noip cname updates in about 30s

WEbsquad offer fixed ip
 
Sorry couldve been more clear,late night. I have a few clients on LTE/Adsl with dynamics. Running mail servers are small sites on them

Oh and we have a paid .com domain pointing to one server inside our network and then also vpn so that's why I need the static ip. Makes my life so much easier

Yeah same. Look are you interested in paying for business fibre and fixed ip,or a fixed ip at a home provider,or fix your issue with dynamic?
It seems there's issues with any response,or you struggle to eloquently state whether you are for or against anything

I'd avoid you as a client,red flags abound

fixed ip at a home provider. I tested with dynamic ip by adding a cname record that points to a dynamic ip address so it's still the .com address we registered for so for example it's let say my dynamic dns is test.no-ip.com but our actual address is test.example.com so I just added a cname in the cpanel from the hosting provider for our .com domain so it points to the dynamic dns name test.co-ip.com and it works so far.

Still I would much prefer to use staic/fixed public ip to make it just that much easier

No want normal FTTH with 1 static ip., How can I solve my issue with dynamic ip. For example how do I point a .com domain to a dynamic ip address?

You point to a cname, the cname would be that of the dyndns address.

when I for example type in test.example.com in address bar it still shows test.example.com and not the dyndns address so it works

Yes so cname is just a pointer record not a url rewrite for instance.
 
i Would recommend using an SD-WAN connection over two separate ISPs, one fibre and the other fixed wireless. This achieves near 100% uptime. One ISP will never be the same uptime as two.
The SD-WAN provides a floating IP without unreliable protocol hacks such as dynamic DNS.
I'll pm you my details. :-)

We have openserve and frogfoot in our area so What Websquad suggested is 2 lines as fail over. I like your idea of getting 2 different ISPs one ISP going to Frogfoot Fibre and one ISP going to Openserve Fibre.

Yes, that is the value proposition for a business. Take two broadband links from different providers and aggregate them. This achieves better uptime that MPLS or any other alternatives. On Openserve the failure rate of the ISP is higher than the last mile failure rate.
