No hardware in form.
If you are hosting both the Node and Gateway at your location you really need 150 upload as per the recommended specs on pages 3 and 4 in the https://xx.network/beta-node-handbook-v1.5.pdf.
Also, are you planning to purchase the recommended hardware (again found in the hand book on those pages)?
Please clarify bandwidth and HW.
Hi, everyone.
Thank you for your feedback.
HW - can be up in running in 4-5 business days as per requirements once application is approved. I can set up either option: node (station) and gateway (virtual host) or node+gateway (single station).
BW - my broadband provider can currently provide bandwidth 1000/50 down/up.
- Is this OK for BetaNet?
- When Mainnet is supposed to commence?
- Do I need 150 upload by Day 1st on Mainnet or 150 is projected max upload with graduate ramp up during 6m-1y?
Based on your application and response, you have my vote!
Hi, thank you for your review.
I am wondering whether Is my application approved? What would be the my next steps?
