About this network
Vianet Inc. is an independent telecommunications company based in Sudbury, Ontario, selling internet, telephone, and television service across Northern Ontario. It was founded in the mid-1990s and registered AS5690 with ARIN in 1995.
What it's used for
- Consumer and small-business broadband across Sudbury, Timmins, and the smaller communities of Northern Ontario, increasingly over fibre the company has built itself.
Notable
- An "eyeball" network: the addresses behind this ASN are mostly homes and small offices, not servers.
- Its inventory tells the story of a regional ISP that grew by accretion — over 80 announced prefixes, many of them small /22s and /24s picked up piecemeal rather than one large early block.
Interesting
- Northern Ontario is thinly populated and expensive to wire, so an independent operator surviving there against the national carriers is itself notable; Vianet has spent years extending its own fibre through Sudbury's neighbourhoods.
