Services

Real routing, without the enterprise price tag

Everything you need to run your own network — tunnels, transit, addressing, compute and peering — whether you're a hobbyist, a community project or a small business.

IPv6 Tunnels

Get online over WireGuard, GRE or L2TPv3 — no datacentre presence required. Perfect for home labs and hobbynets.

IP Transit

Free and low-cost IPv4 & IPv6 transit over tunnels or direct sessions, backed by a Tier 1 upstream.

IPv6 Space & BYOIP

Generous IPv6 allocations, or announce your own prefixes with proper ROAs and IRR objects for clean routing.

Virtual Machines

Spin up VMs across our footprint for routing, DNS, services or experiments — billed fairly and simply.

BGP Peering

Full BGP sessions over your tunnel so you can run your own AS, learn real routing and control your announcements.

XDP DDoS Protection

Network-level filtering built on XDP helps absorb and drop abusive traffic before it reaches your services.

Points of Presence

Six PoPs, one community network

Terminate your tunnel at the location closest to you for the lowest latency. All sites are live and continuously monitored.
