Westvic Internet
unknown
Regional Victoria ISP based in Warrnambool (WESTVICINTERNET-AU, four allocations in the 1997 IP index). The 'Westvic' (western Victoria) lineage very likely continues: Westvic Broadband Pty Ltd (ACN 106 835 947) was registered 28 Oct 2003 in Warrnambool (VIC 3280), moved to Traralgon (3840) Nov 2008, adopted the '.AUSSIE BROADBAND' business name (2007), and merged with Wideband Networks to form Aussie Broadband (2008). Westvic Internet Pty Ltd also held shares in Datafast Telecommunications (2.19%, share register 14 Jul 2000), indicating activity into 2000. Exact corporate continuity between the 1997 Westvic Internet and the 2003 Westvic Broadband is not documented but the shared Warrnambool base is strong circumstantial evidence.
Founded in Warrnambool, VIC.
