About this network

DCANET is DCANet, a facilities-based ISP and competitive local exchange carrier (CLEC) based in Wilmington, Delaware. It has served the Delaware Valley since the early 1990s and took its AS number in 1996.

What it's used for

• Business internet access — fibre, ethernet and dedicated circuits — across Delaware and the Philadelphia area.
• Server colocation and managed hosting out of DCANet data centres in Wilmington, DE and Old City Philadelphia.
• Voice/IP telephony and managed network services for regional business customers.

Notable

The address space is commercial, not consumer: it fronts business circuits, colocated servers and hosted infrastructure rather than household broadband. That gives it a mixed profile — some ranges look like enterprise access, others like small-scale hosting — which is typical of a regional CLEC that grew a data-centre business alongside its access network.

Interesting

DCANet is one of a shrinking set of independent, locally-owned regional ISPs from the first commercial internet wave that still operates its own facilities rather than reselling a national carrier's.
