Good list but I know a few LFCs that could be recognised (Ultrafast fibre, Enable networks and Northpower Fibre).
Does Counties Power still run their network and provide some rural connectivity for the major players? I’m not sure if Transpower’s network would count but I understand that they have partially fund cables used by others or is that outside the scope?

Hi,
So Don's post made me think about how many networks do we have active today at 30 years old. What have I missed or which ones shouldn't be on here?
So I skimmed the Chorus service providers list and the Wispa list but I didn't bother with the ISPANZ list or the NZNOG list (sorry mods) and came up with this (the count is the number of times they appeared in the Chorus Regions or WISPA list):

And this is the two combined (with some edits to remove obvious overlaps). For those of you with big numbers, you win a biscuit. But as an aside 80 different brands operating in either wireless or fibre. Wow!
