FlexiNet is the oldest independent Internet Service Provider on the Sunshine Coast and April 2008 marks the tenth anniversary of the commencement of commercial operations as an independent business. But its origins go further back. FlexiNet grew out of a computer business called OASYS Technology and this company demonstrated the first working dial-up internet connection on the Sunshine Coast in July 1995.

In the early days, there was so little knowledge available about the internet that we had to 'invent' the computer systems and support services that made everything happen. We are very pleased to be able to point to those early groundbreaking successes and note the still significant number of our customers using the original '@oasys.com.au' email addresses.

The nature of the internet business is such that if you don't innovate, you die, and in May 2000 FlexiNet installed a satellite link from California to the Sunshine Coast so that we could acquire data from the US at substantially lower prices than available in the local monopolized market.

The spirit of innovation which brought FlexiNet to where it is today is still alive. In October 2004, we commenced operations with the pilot scheme of our broadband wireless network and the results have shown that there is a real alternative to the big carrier ADSL services for the residents and businesses of the Sunshine Coast.

Noting the opportunities opening up in telecommunications, FlexiNet elected to introduce the systems that would enable it to become a licensed telecommunications carrier. This target was realized in 2006 and FlexiNet is now moving towards providing a wide range of telecommunications products and services to the Sunshine Coast.

With the establishment of its new network operations centre in Buderim and its own high capacity communications trunk linking directly to Brisbane (due for completion end April 2007), FlexiNet will be nicely positioned to become a major regional telecommunications provider.
