Astrinet, or "A-Starry-Night", is an internet provider who sells high speed internet (DSL, Wireless, T-1, Ethernet), web-hosting, e-mail, and online backup services. The company is comprised of locals.

Astrinet has an agreement with the totally awesome Sonic.net for some of its upstream internet service, but this is the limit of their agreement at this time.

Their future plans include a community-wide, community supported WiFi network. They are looking for homes and businesses willing to help them.

Astrinet is currently working with Socially Speaking Davis now Social and Cognitive Learning Center of Davis and AQUA-Science to help bring its Community supported WiFi Network to life.

2009-11-11 00:57:17 Do you support IPv6? What are your upstream isps? —NickSchmalenberger

2009-11-30 19:46:29 Hello Nick,

Astrinet's current DSL offerings do have support for IPv6. This support is not an official offering, is not supported by customer service and has no official pricing. You can ask for IPv6 support during sign up to receive further information and pricing options from support specialists.

I really like the idea of local ISPs and would like to not continue to support a monopoly which is showing very little innovation. —upisdown

2011-04-02 13:14:26 Local company, woo! I love their high speed internet, never had any problems. Beats dealing with a monopoly company (Comcast, AT&T) for sure. I only wish there were more demand for fiber-optic internet speeds in Davis, as the per-bit pricing would be significantly lower. The fastest residential high speed DSL option is quite expensive ($65/mo after 6 months of $35), but this isn't necessarily Astrinet's fault, it's the same with any DSL ISP in Davis. Demand fiber-optic people! —MatthewPorter

2011-08-11 17:19:16 I have been working with Astrinet over the past few years, and it has been great! Since they have installed the internet in our office we have not had any problems, with speeds or connections. Evan, has been great to work with he explains the tech stuff in a way that I can understands, and offers suggestions and solutions to help our business run smoother. When I call they answer, no going through a ton of menu options just to speak to a live person, love that they are local! —KarenMattis
