French Data Network

French Data Network is a French non profit association, structured under the French law of 1901 governing non profit associations, founded on June 2, 1992. It operates as an internet service provider with a stated mission to promote the development of the internet and Usenet networks, and it is France's oldest continuously operating internet service provider, having offered dial up access since its founding before adding ADSL, VPN and fiber to the home service in later years.
