Core Entity Brief
| Entity | gsnet |
|---|---|
| Public role | GSNET matters through local access and routing dependency: homes and businesses in its published footprint rely on it for last-mile connectivity, static IPs, site links, and managed IT services. Changes to its route policy, peering, upstreams, or service availability can directly affect customer reachability, latency, resilience, and incident response. |

GSNET IKE is a Greek telecommunications and network-services company operating local wireless and fiber access services, managed network services and the public routing network AS211949.
What It Does
- Recurring access subscriptions: GSNET publishes monthly fixed-internet packages for households and businesses, including wireless access tiers and fiber-to-the-home or fiber-to-the-business tiers with static IP included in the advertised plans. Customers pay for recurring connectivity rather than a one-time equipment-only service.
- Business connectivity and managed network work: The company advertises leased lines, microwave point-to-point links, wireless internet, network design and installation, structured cabling, Wi-Fi, server work, VPN, firewall, endpoint-security and support services. Businesses pay it to build, secure and maintain local connectivity and site-to-site links.
- Cloud, backup and hosting add-ons: GSNET advertises cloud backup, cloud servers, virtualization and hosting/domain services, including 1HOST-branded hosting and domain services whose terms identify GSNET IKE as the operating company. This extends the relationship into customer data continuity, web presence and application hosting.
Operating Snapshot
- Legal and brand identity: GSNET's official terms identify www.gsnet.gr as the online site for GSNET IKE products and services, with public Greek legal and company registry details and a Thessaloniki-area operating address. ASN datasets identify the same operating identity as GSNET Private Capital Company I.K.E.
- Published service footprint: The official website presents GSNET as a provider of wireless internet packages for homes and businesses through its own wireless network in Imathia, Thessaloniki and Pella, and fiber internet service in Thessaloniki.
- Published offers: The company publishes residential, business and symmetric wireless packages, plus fiber-to-the-home and fiber-to-the-business packages. The offers include monthly pricing, speed tiers and static IP, showing a direct retail and small-business subscription model.
- Business service portfolio: GSNET's official services pages describe leased lines, microwave links, network systems, continuous monitoring, high availability, LAN and Wi-Fi installation, structured cabling, server installation, VPN, firewall and endpoint-security work.
- Routing footprint: Public routing pages associate AS211949 with GSNET Private Capital Company I.K.E., Greece and gsnet.gr. bgp.tools lists the ASN as active under RIPE, registered on 2021-01-25, with two IPv4 originated prefixes and one IPv6 originated prefix; other public BGP views should be checked for live route-count differences.
- Interconnection signal: NetIX announced on 2024-04-04 that GSnet Private Capital Company joined the NetIX GR platform with ASN 211949, AS-SET AS211949, open service policy, a 1G port and a telecommunications-company classification.
Control Surface
- Local access footprint: The operator-published footprint covers fixed wireless internet in Imathia, Thessaloniki and Pella, plus fiber internet in Thessaloniki. GSNET controls customer availability decisions, installation quality, equipment handoff, support response and pricing inside that footprint.
- Autonomous system and address space: AS211949 is the public routing surface associated with GSNET Private Capital Company I.K.E. Public routing sources consistently show 512 IPv4 addresses across 178.217.234.0/24 and 185.229.132.0/24, with IPv6 routing visible in public BGP datasets.
- Transit, peering and AS-SET policy: Public routing and interconnection pages expose upstream, peer, downstream, AS-SET and exchange signals for AS211949. These are control points for route acceptance, resilience, latency and reachability for customers using GSNET address space.
- Customer service and managed platforms: The customer portal, support workflow, cloud backup, hosting, domain, firewall, VPN and security services create a service-management surface where business continuity depends on GSNET operational decisions.
Watchpoints
- Routing posture: Monitor originated prefixes, upstreams, peers, downstreams, AS-SET membership, Internet exchange participation and RPKI or ROA status because changes would alter reachability and resilience for customers using GSNET address space.
- Coverage and tariff freshness: Coverage, fiber availability, speed tiers, prices, included static IP terms, installation charges and support hours are operator-published commercial details that can change. Re-check official pages before using them as current tariff facts.
- Scale limits: Public sources searched do not provide audited subscriber count, revenue, tower ownership, fiber ownership, customer concentration or SLA performance. Avoid quantifying scale beyond the verified service footprint and routing evidence.
- Self-published claims: The official site makes qualitative claims about network size and service quality. Treat those as operator claims unless an independent regulator, registry or measurement source corroborates them.
- Routing-data divergence: Public routing datasets are not identical on IPv6 prefix and peer counts. Use the current RIPE/BGP state for exact route-table claims immediately before publication.
