A quiet corner of the internet.
WintersNet has existed, in one form or another, since early 2003. Founded by Nathan Scott, who still actively maintains it today.
In its present iteration, we provide folks who may not have the means to procure bandwidth en-masse a premium web presence. We partner with several large networks — Microsoft and QuadraNet to name but two — and have servers and facilities spread across the globe. We offer significantly reduced, or in many cases entirely free, bandwidth and infrastructure to those who qualify.
